Here is the first in a series of videos tearing down the Tascam 246, a 4 track multitrack cassette recorder dating back to the 1980s. These videos are intended as a genral anatomy and access guide for anyone who needs to service or repair their portastudio. Videos focusing on specific repair tasks as well as a review and demoes will follow.
In this video I remove the knobs, open the rear case and detach the cassette transport from the metal chassis below , and unplug all electrical cables running from the cassette player to the rest of the system.
Please not that I do not specifically demonstrate the changing of the pinch roller, idler tires or belts, because once you have the 246 transport out of the chassis, these tasks are identical to what you do on a Tascam 244, and i have already covered those topics in detail in other videos - please see my 244 playlist which you can reach from my youtube channel homepage.
