Hi Lunar,

You're right. We are never satisfied to simply rest on our laurels and besides as you know it's fun to push the limits. There is new hardware in development to enable higher resolution and higher track count. Also we are currently working on a list of 186 new feature requests.

Hi Russ,

Sorry if I've misled you or anyone else in any way. That is never my intention.

I have never been called a Marketroid before but thanks for your comment. That's actually kinda fun.

Just to clarify a couple of things - I have been recording with analog gear for more years than ...

Ballerinas are typically very stable but degenerate more quickly than certain brands of tape. Vibration characteristics vary widely depending on the choice of music and beverage. Actual audio can range from extremely delightful to totally unacceptable. Squeeze gently to test.

Amos,

Please do yourself a favour and "try before you buy". I think these are an excellent choice but only you can decide if you actually like them after you get an opportunity to hear for yourself. Always trust your ears over opinions or published specs. My personal experience with B&W speakers ...

Ben Adrian and all,

For a lot of years Ampex 456 was the standard in every pro studio in my area except one who was using AGFA. I was never once disappointed with performance of either one pre-1980. Most guys around here switched to 3M 996 but you can't get it anymore (unless you work for the U.S ...

You wrote "Seriously Dave,
You can't expect we are all morons. You will eventually make perfect recorder for sure."


I'd like to clarify some points:
1. I never considered you or anyone else on this Forum to be a "moron" and I'd like to publicly apologize to you and to anyone else ...

Different analog stuff (recorders) have different sound. We never really know what people mean when they say that RADAR sounds like an analog recorder. We are pleased to hear this however, whether it is intended as positive or negative comments. The truth is that we are passionate about ...

Hi Steve,

I am delighted to hear of your totally positive experience with old tapes.
You are truly blessed. Unfortunately for many others heartache rather than joy has occasionally been the reality. As one who has been working with analog tape since the 1960's (and I still do) I can say ...

tmidgett,

For most people this "exercising" of tape would not in itself be a problem. The effects of it become apparent many years later when pulling Master Tapes from the vault to reissue a classic recording and you are horrified when just as the tape starts to roll you see shedding that makes ...

RADAR records directly to a Hard Drive. This is the equivelant of a Roll of 2" Tape with the following noteable differences:

- A roll of 2" tape costs about $200 for 15 minutes @ 30 IPS whereas a $595.00 Hard Drive gives you 9.75 hours of 24 track recording for a full track count of 24 bit 48 kHz ...
