I've sent  them  an  email  now  Russell  it will be  interesting  to  see the  reply as  I've  seen on or two others on  the  net  with the  same  fault but  no  one  has  come up  with  an  answer .I  hope  my  suspicions  are  wrong  and  its  a  simple  reset  .

Does  any  one  know  what   reset  error 12  is  on a  tascam dp01 fx cd  recording  studio  There's  no  list  in the  manual or  on  tascams  site .The  guy  who  owns  this  plugged  the wrong  polarity psu  in  so  I  suspect  there's  either  an  internal  fuse blown  or something in the voltage  regulator  circuit popped .but  I dont  want  to  go pulling it  apart if  its  just  a reset able  software  error .Any  info  gratefully  received
Thanks
Graham

Thanks  Roger

thanks  for  the  feed  back  roger ,vocal  levels  are  a  slight  problem   when recording  with  the  looper as  I  tend  to  do  the  rhythm  and  vocal  first so  it  gets  a  little  burried   when  I  play    the  bass line ,however    we  have  just    done  some  pro    tracks  at   my  mates  studio  which  we  hope  will    be  a  lot  clearer  , should have  the  first  one  back  next  week .

its a  great  piece of  kit  .I  use  the  rc 2 an  earlier   version  both  live  and  for  practice  my  mate  steff has  the  rc 3  he  also  uses it  live .I  would  recommend  buying  the  external  foot switch  as  well  as  you  need  to  press  it  twice  at  the  end  of  your  loop  to  stop it  .the external   switch  allows you  to  pres it  once  and  automatically   erase  the loop you have  just  recorded   there by    resetting  it  for  your  next  loop  , I find  this  essential  when  playing live .You  might  also  want  to  consider  one  of  the  modeling  amps  such as  those  from line  6  which  have  built in  loop   or backing  track  facility
