Beocord 1900 cassette deck

Hallo, onlangs een Beocord 1900 cassette deck gekocht. Het afspelen op de Beomaster 1900 werkt perfect. Echter er is een probleem met opnemen. Hij neemt namelijk niet op. De VU Meters slaan ook niet uit. Wat kan het probleem zijn? Weet iemand op het forum misschien de oplossing?

Groeten, Fred

Hello, recently bought a Beocord 1900 cassette deck. Play on the Beomaster 1900 works perfectly. However, there is a problem with recording. He does not work. The VU Meters also do not work. What can be the problem? Does anyone know the solution on the forum?

Greetings, Fred

Wrong signalcable?

Martin

VU meter only works when recording!

Yes I Know, but the VU Meters don’t work while recording.

In record mode, with record level turned up, try inserting a small metal pin (bent paperclip or similar) into the
DIN socket at the back one pin at a time.
Two pins should give a deflection on the left and right meters respectively.

If this is fine your cable or signalsource is at fault.

If not fine, check the record/playback switch.

Hi Martin, thanks for your interest. Only the keft VU meter works. The right unfortunately not. The recording is therefore only 1 speaker. Is that also a cableproblem?

Greetings Fred

Check the record/playback switch.
It has many contacts, and is prone to oxidation, particularly if not used regularly.
