Fixed. Couldn’t go to bed without one more effort. The head needed to be cleaned. Works great. Very cool. Ty so much.

Its very possible its something simple like that. This was in storage for who knows how long.

Ty sir. I will check the wires and clean the heads tomorrow and update.

I will check the wires tomorrow. What is the best way to clean the heads? Isopropyl alcohol and q-tip? I have never serviced one of these so its all new to me. I am thinking of getting the kit to replace a few things from echofix. I am not going to do the caps though. If i needed a new head I...

Reading through the manual it shows you how to disconnect that. I found that interesting. I also found this excerpt quite funny. “If motor fails to start, slap sides of cabinet. This will realign bearings if unit has been roughly handled during shipment.” Thats one of the greatest things i’ve...

Nope I checked both modes. I read through the manual and followed it step by step to make sure i’m not a dumbass, lol. Iassume the head is some sort of magnet to erase the audio. Is there a way to test that? The audio thats on the tape is the same sound quality all the time regardless of mode...

Alright fellas. I cleaned up a lot of funk areas with deoxit. Changed out the switch and she has purred back to life. I can hear old stuff recording on the taped but it doesn’t seem to be recording at all and obviously isn’t erasing properly if I can hear recordings in a loop they are not me...

So based on the info you gave me it was made in the 43rd week of 1975. It’s honestly a lot cleaner inside than expected.

I must have this on mine!

Very cool. I am sure I will have questions as I go through it. I may actually start a thread when I get ready to catalog what’s going on with it. If not for anyone else it will be cool to watch my own progress.

How do I know how old it is? I did get it by the way. I started today by making sure the box is a little more sturdy. I used some wood glue and clamped it. Tomorrow I am going to put a few brads in it to make sure it’s nice and stable. I think I am going to start with a rebuild kit from...

This is a long shot but does anyone have an AD-9 plate they are willing to part with. Or know where you can get one made?not really concerned about condition.

Not looking good. Seems like a good winter project for me. :) always has to be a first time. At least i’m not gonna break it right, lol.

I really dont know whats wrong with it. It has been in someones storage for a long time. It looks like it has a new tape in it. I plugged in and flipped the switch. Nothing happens and the switch is broke, lol. It could very well be a rabbit hole situation. I have had another one get away before...

So I may get this but wanted to ask about it first. It doesn’t work at all. No power and the box itself is rough. The thing probably needs a complete rebuild. What is something like this worth in this state? I am sure can find a kit to rebuild it myself.

Lectricfx Star Chambre. Not verified yet. Use at your own risk. I will update when verified. This uses the smaller lumberg power jack and the led is for 3mm with no bezel. https://drill.taydakits.com/box-designs/new?public_key=dXdVdjErckZwRnZ4NjYrY2lFMTRnQT09Cg==

Just realized i posted in the wrong area. I deleted it. My bad.

A friend gave me this a long time ago. When it works it cant be beat. When it doesn't it pisses me off. It gets clogged way to easy. But when it works.

I wanted to follow up on my first thoughts and I started my second Q-tune this morning. The second one goes together faster, lol. I decided to get one for another board. That being said after having and using the first one for 3 weeks now it does not disappoint. Here are few things i have...

No problem. Can you click on the request box at the top of the thread and change it to the box type so it shows its no longer a request? I want to try and clear them out if possible.
