How to get tascam 488 playing the tape?
​
So I got a tascam 488 portastudio 8 track machine and a Maxell XLII high bias IEC type 2 high cassette to go with it
It can only fast forward, when I play it normally it stops immediately
Did I get the wrong type of tape for it?
Is the machine broken?
Or do I need to do something to get it working
Its also making this buzzing sound the whole time, is that normal for old 8 tracks or is it another sign the machine is broken
