thanks for the info guys.

i have a Tascam 488mkII and found Maxell Type II high bias (60 minutes) to be the best. (TDK SM Pro Type II is also very good) I've tried type II tape from Radioshack and they were horrible. I wouldn't waste your time and money. And never use metal tapes and clean your heads after every...
