anyone out there ever played with reel to reels?[views:2523][posts:19]______________________________________ [Aug 22,2005 8:50pm - the_reverend ""] I'm transfering about 300+ r2rs to digital files. [img] this is absolutely amazing. I have ones starting from 1972 to 1998 so much WUNH lore archived. |

| ______________________________________ [Aug 22,2005 9:19pm - the_reverend ""] damn it... I had a 10Khz oscillator test on when I recorded that first reel. doing it over again. this is freaking awesome. 12/1980 and they are talking about a brand new police LP. after this one, I'm putting on one from 1972 |

| _____________________________________ [Aug 22,2005 9:41pm - KeithMutiny ""] i did all that stuff when i went to school for broadcasting, i have to admit, i do like editing on on those machines. With the wax marker, and a razor blade and clear tape, its like an art form to work that shit. I have about 7 hours worth of material in my basement on 7" reels. |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 22,2005 10:24pm - the_reverend ""] well, I'm doing some recording right now on that 1972 tape... it's so delicate that I can't transfer it from one spool to the other... it's going all over the floor and I'm going to have to re-wind it by hand... |

| ________________________________________ [Aug 23,2005 11:43pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] I have an old clogged up 1/4" reel to reel in my closet. Used a few 2" decks at school and in recording sessions. It's sad to see them dwindle, but hopefully they'll never be gone completely. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 23,2005 11:44pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] anonymous said:go digital or go home:cd:=>:] Track to analog, mixdown in digital, then go home with an all around well done record, I think that's what you meant. |
