That' machine looks like new. I'm amazed someone decided to skip it..

[@Havanacuba1985]

A truly wonderful piece of kit Mathew ,thanks for sharing this

[@MatthewNorthMusic]

Yes cant wait till the summer and i can take it outside spinning some Beatles while having a Bar B Q :)

[@DaveKnowlesFilmmaker]

Interesting video especially as I have just bought a mono version. Could you please let me know where you got the belts? Thanks

[@MatthewNorthMusic]

eBay

[@davidjaggs]

Apparently my Nagra 7 is designed for journalism too. I'd like to find a few of those in a skip.

[@MatthewNorthMusic]

Nagra is a different league

[@mf8145]

thanks for the video. did you have any luck getting a microphone working with it? I'm having a hell of a time trying to figure out how to go from the 8 pin din to an XLR or 1/4" socket.

[@MatthewNorthMusic]

Not yet in mono you just need a 3 pin din I haven't buzzed out to see what extra pin is needed for stereo

May I aquire one UHER??

[@andrewt322]

I'm gonna ask what everyone is thinking. Can you turn this puppy into an echo effect unit like an echoplex or space echo???

[@MatthewNorthMusic]

Oh for sure you can do that just feed the output via a mixer to the input yea maybe I'll do a video about it

[@jiosi]

@@MatthewNorthMusic I was also curious about this specific use if that machine trying to figure out the head configuration. Does the machine have separate heads for recording and playback? Does that mean that there is no erase head on that particular model?

[@viktorcosic5106]

@@jiosi this is 2 head machine one head is for erase and second for playback and record so no real time loop. But there is a newer model also called 4400 with 3 heads you can spot that uher with big round VU meters. That one is a true 3 head machine.

[@Sentientfx1]

You need a Uher with the word 'monitor' in its title. This allows you to monitor off tape with the consequent time delay. I just bought one that isn't working in the hope that I can make it do its thing..

Used to own one of them from brand new, stupid me traded for a cassette deck

[@theshivers1967]

I should very much to see a recording video

[@andershammer9307]

I have one of these and the motor is dead. Bad brushes I think. I have the Mono machine also and the motor is bad in that too.
