Ya, Maxell type II 60 minute cassettes. The 60's have thicker tape, which resists deforming better than the longer 120’s or 90’s. On the other hand, the longer tapes are more flexible which may contribute to better head contact. Your call.
I guess Gorty agrees.

Masking tape. Anyone visiting this site should start using masking tape. It works much better than ordinary recording tape. All the big time pros use it. The recordings ‘stick’ much better. Ordinary recording tape is slippery. The sounds just slip off after a few weeks.This tape you are talking about,.....is it tapeworm?

Yes, and wear your "digital" headphones while recording.I use analogue gaffa tape. It's digitized for optimum clarity. No signal degradation either!
As a classical singer, I made many recordings on several cassettes, going back to the 60's. Then, over the years, made copies which now NEED to be transferred onto CD's. My dilemma is that there are too many individual solos
on 14 tapes which I would have to single out, and it would be too confusing
for me to try and go directly onto CD's, so I want to make a final cassette
copy and go from there. Please tell me the best type of tape to use, and whether any unwanted noise or hiss can be removed after the transfers are
made. I was thinking of taking my finished CD's to a professional for this.
Many thanx!
Hi Tucci....long time no see! check your pm'sWhich brand of cassette tape is the absolute best to use with my 424MKII?
huh huh? Been using Maxell.
Thanks,
Tucci
Fuji normal, TDK High bias & normal and brilliant cassettes, Sony Hi fi, different Maxells fromWhat is this "cassette tape" of which you speak? Some relic from the long-forgotten past?
Many thanks, and I have 2 good decks......Technics RS-TR333 with Dolby B & C andI second this. As hard as it may be for you, Zana, I'd go staight to digital, if at all possible. There's just too much degradation going from slow speed cassette to cassette, especially when you don't have an up to spec deck.
