By far the worst portastudio I've had on my workbench yet. i bought it from someone else who attempted to "fix" it but seems to have made it worse. There were missing screws, screws in places they didn't belong, and random screws not even from a tascam. They broke and tried to fix a jst connector coming from track 1 of the play head to the board, and inexplicably a bunch of the ICs were reflowed or removed from the board and reinstalled really poorly.
I decided instead to pull the transport and put it in a known working machine that had a bad transport. That machine is working now. I had to repair the mangled jst connector. They're not difficult to pry apart without breaking them. I pulled a fresh connector from the dead transport and made it complete.

Awesome, I was asked over at BYOC if I would make one for them, turned out great. Fantastic tremolo.

It's my M.O. now.
You can get 4 colours out of it:
- Silkscreen
- Solder mask
- Copper
- Substrate
Maybe 5 if you put copper on the back of the substrate. I'm not sure if it will work but design isn't dependent on that one.

These were on my workbench all week. A friend asked for an analog delay. Wanted to make a madbean anamorph for myself, so why not build two at once? Thought I'd play on the DMM/DM2 mashup by using the Boss font on a faux EHX background. The skeleton with poor grammar is a request from my pal.
Build report soon!

Put a push-push on it. Always right.

All music related stuff has been on the back burner for a while. I have been going pretty hard on renovating/restoring this old house one room at a time, right now I’m trying to figure out how to do I cut this crazy big crown molding without messing up. Thankfully the kid got me sick so I had to step away from it for a bit, which gives me time to think about how to make compound angles on 9 1/2” molding with a 10” saw.
I see a NSD in your future. I stepped up to a Metabo(Hitachi) 12in miter a couple of years ago. "Well honey, it's cheaper than hiring a contractor. It's a worth while investment."

Something like a 12” Bosch would be cool, but so far this has done everything I have needed it to do, I just wished I would have thought about dimensional limitations of my tools before telling the wife “get what you want and I will make it happen.” Famous last words… that license to kill has gotten me in over my head on this room..
