Hello my fellow analog friends!!
I haven't posted here in this forum in about 2-3 years now. The past couple years were very much filled with many "bumps" in the road which took me away from my love of recording.
I lost an uncle, both grandparents, as well as my mother and father just last year...
I've been collecting tape echos / delays for quite some time now, and I've never seen one of these before...

Anyone out there that can confirm if Scotch 3M 226 - 1/2 is known to be sticky or not?
My friend has a case of 10 he said he'd sell to me for $150.00
Problem is,..he lives in a different state and doesn't own a 1/2 inch deck.
He said it was stored in a cool, dry area.
I can always get my cash...
I had the chance to sit in on my friend's high end studio recording process for their soon to be released LP and also had the chance to chat with the engineer who has many indie releases under his belt.
It is always good to run across someone willing to share their "secrets" on a great sounding...
NOW they wanna revert to old faithful?...
I've never counted the magnetic medium out.
Although this has nothin' to do with it..
I still have high hopes that someday we'll see high end tape formulations produced again.

I received a box of 10 NOS Sony Super 150 type S-7/550m 25 (1.0) micron polyester tapes from a friend.
I have never heard of this tape before.
Can anyone tell me a little about it?
Is it worth biasing one of my mixdown decks for it?
It doesn't seem sticky as I tried it on a deck that isn't set...
I have a minty 688 for sale (or maybe trade depending on what analog synths you may have).
Although I do know how to crate an item like this..I do not want to ship this fine specimen.
If you are in the Tri-State area (Pa, NY, NJ) on the East Coast...I'd be willing to meet somewhere half way...
Just came across this guy while searchin' for TEAC parts..
Figured I'd share it with the rest of the analog community and tape lovers abroad.

I might as well put a pic up since these links usually die out.
Haven't tried it...
I do have 2 EE compatible decks Akai GX-747 & GX-77 which utilize this type tape but I was wonderin' if anyone has used or knows if EE type tape can be used with a Studio 8 (388).
Since the 388 isn't biased for it..
I'm thinkin' probably not a good idea,...but would love to...
Never seen one of these before!
This recorder is beyond cooooooool!
I've always wanted to score for a little "I SPY" Nagra...
but never ever came across one of these.
If you back a couple pages,..you'll see some video as well.
The transport section is nothin' like I've ever seen before!
Nagra...
Well there's a little story behind this one, but I don't have the time at the moment to tell the story,...so, for now I'll just post a couple pics until I can fill everyone in on how I came to obtain this beautiful little piece of history.
I was wonderin' if anyone has any info they'd like to...
Just thought I'd share some pics of my latest studio purchase...
Got rid of my M2600 16 channel board, and upgraded to 32 channels on the M3700.
I'm very happy with this console. This is the one I've wanted for quite some time now,...and finally the right one came along.
The whole board was just...
Does anyone have an M3700 manual & service manual available on PDF they can send me?
I can pay you for your troubles,..and / or I have several Tascam manuals on my computer available for exchange.
I'm not wanting to pay $50.00 at this time from Tascam for the manual.
I just got a mint M3700...
