[ARSCLIST] Casette duplicator, was: 1/4" audio tape digitizing

[Lou Judson <loujudson@xxxxxxx>]

This is way off topic, but maybe someone knows: A client gave me their 
old Otari (8x, stereo) in-cassette duplicator, and another client who 
still sells cassettes could use it, if I could get it working. I cannot 
find anything online about it, even on an Otari user list. Any hints 
about getting a manual for it? I remember back in its day this was a 
much better machine than any of the Sony or Telex in-cassette 
copiers... I hate sending fine machinery to landfills, though it has a 
rugged road case... but obsolete is obsolete!

Thanks.
