Try holding the power button and the up volume button together (or down volume button possibly) This resets my R6 Pro and the R4 which has only frozen once in the 2 months of heavy use. Hope you it resolved!

What do you guys like better, OTARI MX5050-BII vs Revox B77 MK2?

@@prospectnyc I like Otari for its playback flexibility (4 track and 2 track). I like the B77 because it is lighter and easy to work on. They both sound great to me.

TO my knowledge all A77 VU meters only work in record UNLESS there's been a mod. Put the rec selectors to aux, set them to 1/2 volume, feed in a signal, and press both rec enable buttons. You should then see the meters working.

Hi there Nice work with these machines. You should to a tutorial on how to calibrate these machines. I think it would be very valuable as a reference for many people.

Hello! I also have a question if you don't mind. I have about 4 revox a77 tape recorders, different mk. All have changed all electrolytic capacitors, all tantalum capacitors and all semi-adjustable. When I listen to music, should it also be heard when I switch the selector to stereo? I can't hear any tape recorder on the stereo, even on ch1 or ch2. I have one more question. Does the volume meter work with any of the revox a77 models when listening to music? As for me, it only works on the rec vometers. Any advice is welcome. Thank you very much. A good evening.

@almandog 2 ай бұрын

You should be hearing sound when the deck is in stereo or ch1 or ch2. Something is wrong with the audio section of your deck. Also the VU meters don't work in playback mode. They only work when you are recording. But I think the A77 mk 4 vu meters will work during playback if the switches are set correctly. Please check out www.tapeheads.net and post your questions there. Lots of knowledgeable folks are willing to help.

@MikeGervasi Ай бұрын

If you play a prerecorded tape and get no sound when in stereo it can be a few things. First plug in headphones to the front panel. Do you hear anything with the volume turned up? If not then it is a good chance the Input amp card is not seated properly or has an issue as that handles both channels. Also if you replaced C301 on the "Switch Board" (Page 45 of the service manual) make sure you installed the new one with polarity in the correct direction.
