msol607 Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 (edited) My JE520 deck seems to have a bad right channel that drops out some times and seems to introduce an intermittent hiss when working. I tried contact cleaner on the jack to no avail. I'm recording in mono with two mics into a mixer and then tape out to the line in on the deck. Can I just use the left channel? Will I be losing anything? I read somewhere that Sony uses some kind of algorithm to combine two inputs into mono.. This makes me wonder whether having no right channel input might mess with this somehow. If I can use just the left channel, should I use just the left tape out on the mixer or use "main out" from the mixer ? Not sure there would be any difference. I guess it's time to find a new deck but in the meantime I need a fix. Thanks Edited August 30, 2008 by msoul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
