Title: How to Align Otari MX 5050 BII
Post by: jcmusic on July 18, 2018, 06:38:39 AM
My question is how do I go about aligning my deck while having the direct head wiring out to my tape pre? Since I have the deck setup this way I have lost the meter functions, so I need advice on how to align???

A scope with an X-Y display is the best way to align a head, using a Lissajous figure. It's much easier and more precise than using the VU meters.
