Hi I was only borrowing this unit so haven’t got it available to be able to check unfortunately. I seem to remember you can record the buss outs as well as direct mode though?

@@wehappyfewmusic yeah… its all good when you are recording a live take but doing trwck by track you csnt get any stereo image. it seems its just impossible. So when you play it back when everything is recorded, you can make it then

Thanks so much for the positive comments, it’s much appreciated. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the song and hope your recordings go well!

Sounds like a nice setup! Which md recorder have you got?

Many thanks 🙏

The resonator? It’s a Harley Benton Custom Line N-150CE if so. 👍

Thanks for having a listen 🎧 👍

Hey Will, thanks for having a listen! Yeah the tape always seems to have the edge with these things and adds a bit of secret sauce 😀. I liked the MD8 but have decided to move it on to make some space!

Great to hear you liked it and I’d definitely recommend giving slide guitar a go! 🙌🙏

Hi thanks for having a listen and letting me know your favourite media. The VHS does have a good top end.

@@wehappyfewmusic thanks for making this comparison! It’s really important

@@TheChadPad you’re welcome! 👍🙏

Thanks again for the positive comments, and sounds like a cigar box guitar could be just what you need for your song! 🙌👍

Thanks very much, glad you liked it!

Haha, very kind of you bro! 😀👍

Thanks very much! 🙏

Not sure but would be interested in finding out.

Much appreciated dude!

Very happy to hear you found the video useful and many thanks for the sub! The SK1’s are a lot of fun to use and super crunchy when sampling. I recently picked up its big brother, the SK200 which has a few extra sample slots and tend to be a bit cheaper. Hope you enjoy using your Casio!

Thanks very much, glad you liked my playing! 🙏

Not sure but I’d be interested in finding out.

Thanks for having a listen and think you’re right!

Cheers buddy, and thanks for the positive vibes!

Much appreciated, thanks for checking it out! 🙏👍

@@wehappyfewmusic anytime

@@S0GGY_S0CKZ 🙌

Glad to hear you enjoyed it, decided to go acoustic on this one. ☝️

That must have been a very economical way of doing things back in the day. 👍

Yeah, see what you mean! 😀👍

Love that description! It’s tuned to D A D here. 👍😀

Yeah, not quite their original purpose!

Nice analogy, thanks for listening!

Nice analogy, thanks for listening!

Nice analogy, thanks for listening!

Thanks for checking it out! 👍

Thanks very much! 🙏👍

Hey Robin, thanks very much for checking out the video and the positive vibes! 🙏🙌

Very pleased you think so, much appreciated! It’s a bottle neck guitar slide, I guess this one might be made from a gin bottle or similar? 😀 🍸

Cheers bro 😎🙏!

It’s certainly not for everyone, but I like the sound of tape. 😀

That I understand, as someone who likes the sound of vinyl.

Cheers for having a listen and letting me know which ones you preferred. 👍

Cheers for watching and glad to hear it was useful!

Hello again and thanks for checking out my new 488 tutorial! Is your replacement deck all working okay?

@@wehappyfewmusic Thanks for the note. My 488 is still coming from Japan. He is a 100% seller on eBay, so I expect no problems. Paid a tad more, too. So, I'll let you know how it proceeds. Marc.

Hey, thanks very much, great to hear you enjoyed the tune and congratulations on getting your 2nd 488! The song is about a guy called PC George Clark and he was one of the first metropolitan police officers to be murdered in London. It was way back in 1846…..

Thanks so much for the positive feedback! I bet your mixes sound great, but it definitely helps to listen on a few different systems. I try to allow a bit of space for instruments to sit in their own frequencies range and sonic space (at least that’s my aim 😂). 👍

It’s a useful alternative if you haven’t got space for a full sized double bass.

Hi, that’s great that you’ve still got yours and good to hear you enjoyed the video! Yes, I was really impressed with the reverbs on this machine too. Thanks 🙏

@@oinkooink Thanks, yes it’s a tidy looking machine and I’m delighted to have it serviced and back in the studio again.

​@@wehappyfewmusicbeautiful machine. May I ask where you had it serviced?

@@The_Absurdistt Thank you, I had it repaired and serviced by Tetrakan in the UK. Here’s a link to his website tetrakansupermonobloc.home.blog/

@@wehappyfewmusic I bet. My recent buy a 424mkiii ended up having a bad Monitor level pot. Was the only thing wrong with an otherwise top condition machine. Will be in the shop a fair while as they wait for the part to come in on one of their bulk part orders.

@@oinkooink Thats good news you’ve found someone to fix your 424mkiii. I hope it doesn’t take too long before the part arrives.🤞🏻

@@YY-bv3ik You’re welcome and I hope it helps you get up and running with your 488! 👍 I wiped tracks 5-7 by recording new music on them, but recording silence over the previous material would do the trick too.

This is really helpful, any tips on how to transfer to digital?

@@mikepass4435 Many thanks and great to hear you found it useful! I kept it pretty simple for the transfer to my computer (no mix bus compression etc). I’d recommend allowing a fair bit of headroom when transferring to digital though and going for a highish sample rate though (I used 24bit 48khz). Also double check that you’ve got both channels balanced on your audio interface to keep the stereo imaging of your mix intact.

Yeah, go for it! They’re nice machines. 👌🙌

Sounds good. Do you know where I can get a copy of the complete manual?

@@svetkolisica1635 thanks! Yes I’ll search out the link and post it in the description.

@@svetkolisica1635just posted the link.

Thanks. Pages 15 -23 are missing 🙄

Thanks for checking it out, yes there’s a splash of reverb too. 👍🙌

Oh cool, I’ve not seen that’s so must check it out. Glad you enjoyed the sound of the resonator guitar!

Good point and thanks for the suggestion. The tape is mystery unfortunately as it came with the machine, and I’ve now returned it to its owner. I’ve since bought a Revox A77.

That’s the spirit and thanks for checking out the video! What tape machine do you use?

Thank you! 🙏 👍
