Hey everyone, quick question about MRL tapes..
I need to align my Model 80 as I will be doing some tracking soon. MRL's are expensive, so I instead borrowed a 1/4" MRL from my Professor, sweet! I just saved a hundred(ish) bucks! (or so I thought)
When I got home, I noticed the tape speed of the MRL is 7.5 ips, and the model 80 only runs at 15 ips. I was wondering, since the tape speed is essentially halved, is there any way to align my machine with the 7.5 ips MRL by over/ under compensating the adjustments on my meters? Or do I just have to bite the bullet and buy the correct MRL for my machine? Any advice/ input is welcome, thanks guys
