In this video I'll walk you through the basics of opening, cleaning, and repairing a noisy output on the Tascam Porta02 mkii. This is a very common problem with the Tascam Porta series and a simple fix.
The Tascam Porta02 is a lovely little 4 track recorder that is coming back in fashion and being used with endless loop tapes for ambient and experimental music.
I'd like to recognize RU-vid User RedMeansRecording for the inspiration in adding self-deprecating and informative titles to the video. check him out here / jjbbllkk
