I've read about a million threads on analog vs digital. I do not want to start another one. What I do want are some cold hard specs on reel to reel sound quality. SNR, Dynamic range, frequency response, THD and the likes. We all know the how this works in digital audio, but as far as analog...

ok, I was a bit bored tonight. I wanted to see how many guitars I could layer before the song fell apart. My vote is that it gets annoying at around 40 sec. I'm sure a less annoying guitar sound would have prevented this. Fun experiment, lame outcome. http://www.bozrecords.com/mp3s/strangeSong.mp3
