ALESIS NANOVERB - Dirty edition!

[@davidsapir9638]

Just set up my 90's recording gear again and also had to take the Nanoverb apart as well as clean all the 1/4" jack inputs and outputs with rubbing alcohol, q tips and compressed air to get it to work again. So worth the effort though, it's an incredible box for vocals, guitar, bass, you name it. Still recording old school with a Tascam Mk2 488 that's in perfect working order. Your playing sounds great in this video, really enjoyed it a lot, thank you.

That’s awesome!!! Mine still needs a lot more work! Still super scratchy… I used to have a Tascam quarter inch reel to reel. I should never have sold it!!!

@@thepedalpicassos Appreciate the reply! Same here, still scratchy making knob adjustments but after that it's a nice clean signal. Definitely should've kept that reel to reel, right? As for the 488, it was either fix it or get a DP32 SD and belly up to Phil Tippet's tutorial bar lol. Opted to have the 488 refurbished and also modded with 1/4" direct out jacks for all 8 tracks so now the 488 Mk2 is DAW and PC compatible with no synching issues. Best of both worlds! All 8 direct out jacks are on the front face of the unit and it looks like the Tascam was manufactured that way. Found a seller on ebay (Vintagear) that did all the work and he did an incredible job on the mod, replacing a failed c gear, belt, cleaning, the whole 9 yards. It looks and works as if i just unboxed it for the first time in 1993. Just couldn't walk away from how crazy easy the 488 is to use, and how great it is recording on to a physical surface.

I was going to buy one for of my synths. Decided to go with the Alesis Microverb rack one. They are servicable old gear that's better than a lot of the chinese trash you get now.

This thing was very rusty on the inside when I got it… I gave it all a good clean and resoldered some traces and some dry solder joints and it came back to life!
