Is there such a thing as a tape recorder that uses the entire width of a cassette tape to record audio (as opposed to standard cassette recorders that use 1/2 for side a and 1/2 for side b)????????? TNX |

Good idea. You need to modify recording head. Or maybe you could out two heads near and use them to record information. |

|
|
what for ? you want to record more channels ? the tascam portastudio recorders could record up to 8 channels on a simple cassette - check it out. |
||||||||

I guess it increases resolution of analog signal. |

more information better quality. |
||||||||

i don't think it works this way. the only possibility to have better quality with cassettes is recording at faster speed. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it works both ways, wider taper and faster speed both = higher quality (area covered per second is proportional to quality), hence 2 inch wide, 30 inch per second tape being used for the finest recordings. |
||||||||

|
just what for ? i mean the whole idea seems dumb for me. of course 30 years ago this question might be totally right but now in the century of digital recording it's useless. why would you on one hand try to record things on analof tape and on the other hand require high quality recording ? if you want the "tape" sound then just record in on tape and mix it into the originals - if you want high quality go digital. |

you may well be wrong twice in this thread |
||||||||

|
enlighten me then |

I want to create a classic flanger with two such devices, but I don't want to sacrifice too much quality in the recording. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh that seems in fact interesting. good luck with finding such a device then. |
||||||||

when you create something new you feel diferent and important and original and inovative. But there is nothing new. |

thank you! |

i'm just thinking - in a deck with autoreverse - are there two recording heads, one broad head or does the head move from side a to side b ? if it's the first two cases you might be able to just hack it by yourself. |
||||||||
|

|
|
there is rotation mechanizm which turns head around, that was in one Panasonic tape-recorder, dunno what other technologies is used. I guess you could use head with two reading surfaces, one up and one down, swich head circuit and casette rotation and you on side B. |
