Problem with Revox PR99 Mk II
« on: November 16, 2009, 11:04:39 AM »
I looked after my Revox PR99 MkII well but recently it is not working properly. When I press the PLAY button, the left spool with tape moves but the take-up spool does not. Other buttons, except the STOP button, do not respond.

What has gone wrong and how can I fix it?

Hi Kantik,

I bet you have your "tape dump" button pushed in. the one next to the "reel size" button below the editing block.
