This may have already been asked somewhere else, but I'll ask it anyway:
If you were to buy say, the 'new tape' (such as RMGI is it?) - and you use it a few times for recording your own personal material on, - then is it 'safe' to use a 'degausser' or 'bulk-tape-eraser' on it, so that you can 're-use' that same 'new' tape over & over?
(I'm just asking to see if I can avoid all the major costs of always having to purchase a brand new reel of tape for each recording session or album, once it's all filled up.)
(I'm 'assuming' btw that you can not do this procedure on some of the 'older' tapes that you can buy off Ebay - but can you do this with the 'new' RMGI tapes & such?)
- thanks.
