Vintage Fostex 280 Multitracker 4 Track Cassette Recorder Mixer + Manual for sale


Recommended Posts

Vintage Fostex Model 280 Multitracker and Instruction Manual

£95

 
The multitracker powers on, it fast forwards and rewinds but quite slowly so there is probably an issue with the drive belt. There is a slight hum sound when the tape is put in and I cannot get it to record so I am selling as parts /not working. The AUX 1 button top is missing but it can still be pushed in to work. Otherwise cosmetically in very good condition.
 
8-Input Mixer (4 mic/line and 4 line) combined with a high quality, high speed 4 track cassette recorder with built in Dolby C noise reduction.
Suitable for overdubbing, punch-in/out recordings and ping pong recordings.
Multiple effects processing with two AUX sends and stereo receive circuits 
2 Point memory system with automatic locate and automatic punch in/out.
Optional MTC-1 lets you control the Model 280 with Midi Sequencers allowing you to run multiple musical instruments and signal sources simultaneously.
Height 105mm
Width 417mm
Depth 345 mm
Weight 5kg
Takes cassette tape C-60 C-90
Original Instruction Manual included.
 
This is a great machine and I have used it to do a lot of recording. It was stored in a dry cupboard for some years and now selling as I no longer use it and it is not working but I would think could be repaired and restored.
 
Collection available from Camberwell, London, SE5

    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
