cente Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Hi , I've found this website and start read as much as I can!! There are professional users here and you help is really precious. I bought a Nagra 3 recently ( I was looking for it from many years..). It is nearly perfect for what concern the body, it looks like new, this is incredible for a 60 years old piece... and inside seems to be never repaired. All the Red paint is in place. New batteries are now inside. The motor run as it should! 4 speeds Rewind is ok, fast forward too. It plays but the sound is not so loud from the central speaker ... I tried to record putting a bass on the Cannon /Mic input. It records and in test mode I can see moving the Modulometer, and hear the sound from the Line output connected on the right. But there is many noise ! I cannot understand if the line out has problem or I' m doing some mess with banana and jack cables.... I believe is not a cable problem anyway.. What you suggest?! In test mode there must be no noise at all I suppose. Many thanks to who want to help me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cente Posted February 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 After One day ... Still operate but now ...it no record..! In test and rec mode the input is clearly visible by the Modulometer, I can hear the sound from my inputs, but it doesn't rec on the reel. During record and monitoring with phones I can hear the music previously recorded on the reel. Cannot understand why that happen.. Seems that erase head and record head are not working now. I only have cleaned the switch contacts inside and cleaned the outside. I'm powering with batteries. So sad I don't even found any contact here in Europe to ask for repair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cente Posted February 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Update I decide to re-pass with solder in some point and the rec function is back!!! It is all working again!! Only some dirty noise during record, I suppose by capacitors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
