I read Jack Endino's Nirvana Faq last night ( http://www.endino.com/nirvfaq.html )
in which he states that Kurt's amp on Bleach was recorded - "Close-miked with an SM-58, recorded to Otari [ MX-5050 Mk III ] half-inch 8-track at 15 ips with no noise reduction." Is this a high fidelity recording? I'm just getting to know reel to reels and I'm trying to find what album were recorded with what. Are there any resources online where I can learn the recording chain associated with various artists and their albums? Or are there any sites dedicated to Reel to Reel machines where I can explore the various types and models and learn about various tape thicknesses etc?
