    Noise reduction after digitizing tapes

    Hey guys, question for you about noise reduction: Just what are my non-software options after I've already digitized the tape? I decided that the release of my album Lacrimosa is probably too lo-fi even for my ears and am trying to do what I can about that. I transferred my multi tracks to...

    What causes the warbling sound on a tape? (reel to reel)

    Or it could just be that the tape needs to be repacked tighter before using...?

    Using a pair of 4 tracks to get more tracks.

    Me too, it's definitely a good one! Coppola made it between the Godfathers, and pretty much left Walter Murch to finish it so he could start filming Godfather Pt. II. I think there are definitely nuances in there that could only be fully taken advantage of by the first ever man to get a movie...

    Using a pair of 4 tracks to get more tracks.

    This kind of reminds me of something: have you guys ever seen the film The Conversation? They did something like that there where they had to synchronize three or four tape machines from different people carrying microphones. Of course, with dialogue it's probably not as crucial to get things...

    Sticky Era Lennon

    Did consumer open reel albums go sticky? I always thought they weren't using backcoated tape for those. I certainly haven't had trouble with the ones I have (admittedly a small collection). I have CSN and Live Cream from the same era, they're both polyester, FWIW, manufactured by Ampex. I'd...

    For anybody interested in electronic music....fascinating film

    Definitely enjoyable. I'm taking a computer music course this semester so it's definitely pertinent to me! :)

    Anybody have a working 246 (or equivalant)?

    Sorry to resurrect this thread, I just wanted to say that I listened to the demo and I quite enjoyed it! Please tell us when the remix is done :)

    The 4 Track Challenge

    A cool idea! I have at least one EP that I haven't gotten around to recording yet and have been itching to use my 244. I'll pencil it in, decide by Wednesday...

    Arturia Minibrute problems--what would you guys suggest?

    Hey guys. I just made a (for me) big purchase yesterday, an Arturia Minibrute analog synth. I picked it up last night, made a cursory check to make sure everything worked, then brought it home. Just playing with it this morning, it was a joy to use, for about an hour, but now it's developed a...

    Tascam 246 pinch roller

    I bought mine off ebay from a guy in California who had about 10 he was getting rid of. It seems he's since sold out, but even contacting Tascam gets you nowhere, be patient, there will probably be more available for sale at some time.

    Another Ampex Analog Recorder...Technically Speaking

    Well, with a transport like that, I'd imagine you could build your own multitrack recorder, given enough parts and time. Good find :)

    Post Your Analog Recordings Here...

    Hmmm I thought Tri-X was going to be part of the theme of the album ;) The Vision 3 looks really good on super 8. It's really cool how you did the cuts between dry ice and the globe. And of course, the song is great as well!

    vinyl records-true analog experience

    I've gotten a few good things at my Goodwill now and then, but it's really hit or miss, and the people working in production (and actually this entire region) don't know what they're doing most of the time. Still, I picked up a copy of Hatfield & the North's first album (nowhere near mint) at...

    Lucky bastard.

    got me a 244, any personal preferences ya'll could recommend?

    Colorado Springs just got a Music-go-round a few days ago, I popped in and got myself an Audio Technica input transformer for $4.00. I agonized about buying one a few months back and if I knew I could pick one up used for $4.00 I probably wouldn't have whined so much about it.

    THIS is a cassette deck...!

    Oh you know what, sorry, I didn't read too closely, guess you're not looking for belts....

    THIS is a cassette deck...!

    Great-looking deck. I have a Kenwood KX-1030 that doesn't look too dissimilar: silver-polished finish, large analog VUs, etc. I've been meaning to get it up and running again. For belts, check out this place: Pioneer CT-F1000 Belt Kit They're actually really close to me, but strangely enough...
