So I have a test tape with a 1k tone on it. I also have a 1k tone generator on my console. The problem is they are two different pitches. So I assumed my deck wasn't running at the right speed so I downloaded some test tones and played them from my computer to my board... again two different...

Looking to buy as many 2" tapes of Quantegy 499 as I can. I am not interested in Ampex 499...too many SSS problems. GP9 would be alright and 996 if you can guarantee it. I've purchased a few reels of 996 that were problematic. My number is 847 366-6253 Thanks, -Barrett

Ampex 440b 4 track recorder | eBay ugh if only i were in florida

This thing is on its way!! Snagged it off ebay for 30 bucks. Figured it probably sounds pretty cool. Anyone know anything on this machine?

Sorry to hijack, I just saw this little "analog echo system" on ebay and decided to snag it. The only thing I could really dig up on it was that it is bucket brigade. Can anyone share any info on BB chips or this unit?

:guitar: Gotta get some 10.5" reels on there
