I just recently bought a black model gx-4000d off of e-bay,
runs smoothly, however when it records, the level is dramatically
lower than what it is set at with the monitor, and it tends to
distort with high frequencies.

Can anyone help?

1st off clean and DE-MAGNETIZE the heads. As these machines get older the recording levels get a bit lower than the source level. Adjust the levels accordingly. Other than that there isn't much you can do unless you send it in to a shop and have them go over it, which considering it's age isn't a bad idea.

The model you've got is probably a 4000DS not a GX-4000D. the GX-4000D is a later model and is silver faced only.
