In Reply to: An addition to my vintage system: Tandberg 3000X R2R; circa 1970. Anyone ... posted by PureAudio on February 22, 2007 at 17:59:51:
The same basic unit as the 3000x but with more features that never worked all that well. The first time I tried to use the sound-on-sound feature I got a cloud of smoke and a burning smell. Repeated trips to the Tandberg facility in Armonk NY never really fixed the problem, unfortunately.The unit make great recordings at all its available speeds...7.5, 3.75 and even at 1 7/8 ips. My biggest quibbles with the unit were mechanical- the tape clutches seemed to spill tape a lot and they were hard to keep adjusted....and the transport was kind of noisy. It was a nice unit...but it's one of the few pieces I've owned that I don't miss having today.
Perhaps your simpler machine will work better than mine did....MAK
