Description: Tascam Studio 8 / 388 8 Track 1/4 Inch Reel To Reel Tape Recorder - 100V The Tascam 388 Studio 8, often referred to as the "Mega Portastudio," is a unique all-in-one analogue recording solution that combines an 8-track reel-to-reel tape deck with a built-in mixer. Released in the 1980s, it uses 1/4" tape and offers classic analog warmth, making it ideal for those who enjoy a vintage, hands-on approach to music production. It became popular for its distinctive "mid-fi" sound that’s neither too polished nor too lo-fi, capturing a blend of characteristics that analogue enthusiasts cherish. With features like EQ controls on each channel, flexible routing, and a durable build, it remains a beloved piece of gear for those wanting to capture the essence of analog recording without needing a fully separate mixer and tape deck setup. Many notible artists have used the 388 such as Madlib, Jonwayne, Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys), Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys), Mac DeMarco, Stu Mackenzie (King Gizzard and the Lizzard Wizard), Kim Deal (Pixies) and many more!Condition:• This is a used unit.• This unit has had a major service.
