emotion over sonics
I currently record to ADAT and computer, but would love to get a tape machine of some sort. It would be worth it just to have a 2 track machine just for drums or acoustic guitar.
I recently came across an Akai X-360D, but I know little about it (and know little in general about reel to reel machines).
I know that there is 1/4", 1/2", 1", and 2" tape...but do certain machines record to only certain width of tape? Meaning, would a half inch machine only use half inch tape and nothing else?
Anybody know what kind of tape the machine above uses?
I can never get the search function to work around here, if there's another thread that covers all this (or good web sites to read background info), I'd appreciate the guidance.
Thanks,
