Cassette Hookup
I have purchased a Nakamichi deck and would like to record my vinyl, CDs and other digital sources. It has been many years since preamps and receivers have included the tape loop. Is there way to hookup the cassette for recording? I have tried using the line in and the analog out rca hookups, but this doesn’t seem to accomplish my goal. I don’t think it matters, but my preamp is a CH Precision L1.
Thanks |

What happens when you feed your tape deck with the Analog outputs? |
The recording doesn’t work. Could it be the preamplified signal is so low, I just don’t hear it?

I see these going up and down, but am not getting any sound when I playback my attempt at recording.

Do you have another tape deck to try? |
Also, which Nakamichi model is it?

I checked it again in standby mode. During recording, when the cassette is set to source, the meters move. When I flip to monitor, I get nothing.

Place a tape in the deck and put in the machine in record. (Not on pause, not on standby, but actually recording a tape.) The deck's meters move when the deck is set to source, correct? What do the meters read when the deck is switched from source to tape?
Again, knowing the model of machine would help. Also, are the record tabs on the cassette shell edge intact? |
The same result when just on record. The meters moved when set to source. When I toggle to tape (monitor), no meter movement. The tapes are new so I assume they should be good to record.
The deck is a Nakamichi ZX-7. |
