Vtg TASCAM 122 Professional 3 Head Rack Mount Cassette Tape Deck Recorder Japan
Manufactured from 1981 to the mid-eighties, the TASCAM 122 is a 4-tra...ck, 2 channel recorder/reproducer/player designed for the production environment to produce master cassette tapes.
Features: 3-head construction allows off-the-tape monitoring; dolby HX is provided to improve high-end response at high levels (noise reduction); and a bias and recording level calibration to get optimum values for each type tape used. Tape types are Normal (ordinary cassette tape), Cobalt or Chromium Dioxide tape, and Metal.
The TASCAM 122 has two-speed capability (1-7/8 and 3-3/4); a memory with counter; record muting to eliminate unwanted materials; and front headphone volume control to adjust the monitoring level; front and rear inputs; DBX compatible, with input for a remote if you have one.
120V 60Hz 41W
TASCAM developed and produced cassette decks for professional application - for musicians and for the broadcast industry. A year after this product was first introduced, NBC standardized their entire operation using the TASCAM 122. The reason NBC made the change was because the 122 had all the capabilities for adjustments and spectacular performance characteristics. Soon CBS and ABC also adopted the 122.
The build quality in terms of longevity and durability, especially during the first generation of decks (when the 122 was built) was very high. Faithful reproduction, durability and design-simplicity are what made this model so sought after and highly regarded. This quality and the major network’s adoption are what made it the industry standard.
So, if you’re in need of a tape deck that is rugged and able to withstand heavy use without being an unreliable drama queen prone to frequent repairs, this is the unit for you.
Unit Dimensions: 17 3/8” x 5-13/16” x 13-9/16”Weight: 28 Lbs. (Boxed)
For those of you who are looking to put together a tape-to-tape editing studio, I also have listed on eBay an LT Sound Echo Control Center model EC-2. This unit is from the same, well cared for environment and formed a small home production studio. Simply click on my seller name above to view these items.
