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
