I've got a Sony APR-24. This is an awesome tape machine. Functions are digitally controlled with a 100% analog signal path. It stores alignment presets and has LED bar-graph metering. It sounds clean and handles tape delicately. Aside from a Studer A820 or A827, there is no other machine that compar...

Hello all,

I completely dropped the ball and was too slow to buy tickets to this show. Does anyone have any extras that they would be willing to sell? If so drop me an email at danielhf@gmail.com .

thanks,
Daniel

The company is not actually Emtec. They are called RMG Intenational and they are based out of the Netherlands. RMG bought out all of the remaining tape production supplies and formulas from BASF/Emtec and is currently producing the formulations that we have all grown to love.

Quick question for anyone who might know the answer: You know that blue 3M splicing tape (367, I believe) where can you get it these days? Also, does anyone remember that splicing station thing that 3M made? It was basically a housing and a metal shaft that rolls of leader and splicing tape could go...

The engineer mastered it with the intention of it being pressed to vinyl, and has done this for many other bands whose records have turned out well. I'm confident. I do b...

I am putting out a record that will be pressed from 1/2" tapes directly to vinyl, and I was wondering where I should send the master tapes to (plating + pressing)? Of course, the master tapes will be sequenced perfectly with leader tape, contain test tones at the beginning, and the sides of the reco...

Run a cheap dynamic through a hi-z XLR-1/4" into this baby.


Use the onboard distortion, and crank both that and the volume all the way. Through a nice condenser in fornt and enjoy!

foxx tone machines are alot of fun, but the re-issues are super overpriced.
