Hello,
I am in the market for a nice, used ADAT. Something like an XT20.
I was talking with someone from one of the Authorized Service Centers regarding ADAT tape availability. The person there said that although one could use S-VHS tapes, Alesis recommends tapes specifically made for the ADAT. However, he said that these tapes are no longer being made anymore.
Is this true? I would like to use ADAT tapes instead of S-VHS tapes if that what Alesis recommends, but do not want to get a machine if ADAT-specific tapes are not going to be made.
Not to doubt the integrity of the person at the service center, but I have a hard time thinking no more ADAT-specific tapes are being made.
Where is everyone else getting their ADAT-specific tape?
Thanks,
Chris
