A classic analog multitrack recorder!Click here to view the owners manual PDF.

Unit powers on, motor is working, and all VU meters, knobs, switches, and tape transport controls are functional. Tape signal is registering on all 4 VU meters and speed control switch is functional. From my limited testing this machine seems to be in good working order. Cosmetic condition is pretty good but there are some dings and wear on the corners, and the 2nd VU meter is missing its plastic bezel (frame) and the front plastic is cracked. The VU meter still works correctly and the light is still functional so this issue does not affect the performance of the machine at all. SOLD AS IS... Unit is in working condition but may require additional service or adjustment to be fully functional. NO RETURNS ACCEPTED!

Description

The new TEAC A-3440 represents another advancement on an already widely accepted technological base.

The previous A-3340S with Simul-Sync established the popularity of four channel tape decks with over-dub facility.

To a large segment of people who are seriously involved in creative music, both as artists and as professionals, decks such as the TEAC trail blazing A3340S satisfied a need.

Now the A3440 goes a step further by utilising the experience gained from producing truly professional tape decks, such as the Tascam 80-8.

quote from tapeheads.net:
I love my 3440. Together with my dbx 228 and Quantegy 499 tape at 15 ips/38 cm, is there a better-sounding recording device? (It\'s great even without noise reduction.) All the warmth, airy openness that audiophiles crave is there.
