my good fathers good friend  gave me the 
  
  fostex x fifteen                      
  
 and  its  a  two track   tape   recorder 
                                          
 i don't really get  how it works. it has 
 two x rca in, two  x rca out, and four x 
 rca "tape out" which i guess is all four 
 channels on the  cassette -  which means 
 the b  side is played backwards  if it's 
                 like that                
                                          
 so now  i have to differentiate  between 
 four track cassettes and two x two track 
       ones... or not, just as well       
                                          
                                   
                                          
 it featyures a low  noise floor which is 
 great,  but  there  is  some   dithering 
 noise  or  if it  is  the  motor, i dont 
                   know,                  
 also there is a  really rad red cassette 
                slot cover                
                                          
                                    
                                          
 it  does  not  have  a  speed hole but 
 rather  a much neater actual  speed knob 
 i   dont   know   the   percentage    of 
 difference but it applies  also  to fast 
            forward and rewind            
                                          
  
  future refusals                       
  
                                          
 update:  this  fuckers  gone whacko  and 
 you need to flip it over constantly  and 
 get    in   there    with   your    hand
