SOURCE: Tascam 2488MK11 hard drive problem

Hi I had exactly the same problem with my Macintosh, it worked fine until recently but suddenly stopped working. As a matter of fact it is probably due to a compatibility issue of the USB driver after a recent software update of MacOSX drivers. Fortunately I have an old Macbook pro with an old version of MacOSX and the Tascam showed up immediatly and USB worked fine. Therefore, if ou can downgrade your USB driver it might solve the problem.

SOURCE: can i upload songs from my tascam 2488mkii to the

Depending on which site you are uploading to you need to have a stored file of the song in the proper format. Most often used is MP3. Read your manual to see what formats you can save in. Even if you can only get as far as wave there are very good freeware utilities on the internet to convert to other formats. Here is a link to a site where you can download some:http://www.techspot.com/downloadid43by4.html Here is another one:http://www.filehippo.com/ Here is a site with some of the most valuable info you can get for free just by joining:http://www.recordingreview.com/ I am a member and the site owner is a very good guy and always returns my emails.

It sounds like the hard drive has failed... cheap test, get another and reformat the new one. They are so inexpensive now. To avoid losing data, they lock things up if anything goes wrong. The unit probably can't get the ready signal from the drive and freezes...

Where I found the Pan funcion?

Here is a link to the manual:http://www.tascam.com/products/2488mkii;9,16,109,19.html Go down to Resources, Documents. As far as I know you have to map your input to a track. If you want Stereo you have to use 2 tracks. The owners manual explains it better than I can here.

Need to replace usb port,

Try a local computer shop that does repairs. You will have to unsolder the old port and take it with you to get a match.Also a good electronics parts dealer should have one or be able to order one for you.

The click track on my TASCAM 2488 Mk 2 won't click

There is likely an amplitude setting (probably available in a menu) for the click. Make sure that is turned up.

Problem with the USB TASCAM 2488MKII

Do you have alot of drives connected to your PC?
You might need to go into disk manager and assign the TASCAM a dedicated drive letter.

And it could also be your USB port that you are going into, or the cable.
