I bought a Tascam 424 mkIII a couple days ago. I just recieved it in the mail. However, I was doing a test recording to check levels, etc. When I go to playback, however... the output is extremely quiet. I've checked ALL outputs. It all does the same thing. I turned up the master to max. Then, I get a loud hiss signal along with what's on the tape, though it's really quiet. Anyone know what's up and how to fix it? I really need to know. I was in the process of recording an album, and now I can't.

You may have a bad impedance matching situation. Check the level at the headphone jack for starters. If that seems low, there is a problem with the playback amp, which may be the same as the record amp in that model, I'm not sure. The switching mechanism that flips the amp from record to play may be hanging up. Start with the headphones. If that's good, your impedance match is way off, or you simply are using a bad cable, as it feeds from the same amp as the outputs in most cases.
