I have a SCSI plextor CD burner that I got used with my tascam 788. Back in 2001 I bought a brand new 788 and 788 burner. Unfortunately I had sold both regretfully.
So now I have a used version 2.02 tascam 788 and a plextor SCSI burner.
1. I want to mix down songs on the 788 (I believe it was called (pre-master?). I then want that 2 track bounce transferred /recorded to a cd. Since I have no approved CD burner can I send that premaster (bounced stereo track) to either the analog or to a non approved plextor CD burner ?. I read somewhere here that you can send it real time BUT does that mean I can NOT send a bounced (premaster) ???Exactly what type of spdif connection is on the back of the 788?? It seems there are two formats of S/PDIF - optical and coaxial, using different connectors and cables. I have no idea what cable to even search for. Any help here appreciated. At this point I just want to get either an analog mix via rca cables /spdif or the SCSI plextor if it works. I am pretty much out of luck about back ups or restore without tascams approved burner. I would like to transfer a bounced version of a song to another recorder. But how? I guess I'm asking if worse comes to worse can I record via the rca outs my premastered bounce of a song?
