Its cool. My old man had it back in the seventies. Its in wicked condition. Now all I need are some reals so I can record shit with it! I wonder how much they go for... |

yeah, those can be fun. i bought one about five years ago at a garage sale and made some recordings on it, but it broke pretty quickly. |

Aparently, you can use them like an analogue delay pedal, according to my cousin who makes experimental rock music. |

my dad has one. one thing that sucks is that all the stuff he had on his old reels is f'd up because over the years, the magnatism in the tapes like degrades or something. it makes a great little decorative piece to spice up any room though even if it don't work so good anymore! |

yeah, because the record head, and the playback head are seperate so you have a signal being played... bus it to the reel, and record, and bring back the output of the playback into the mix, while its recording. since its being recorded, then having to physically be moved to the playback (which comes after the record head) there is a delay between those times. adjust the tape speed for delay times. thatll give you a one shot delay. to get more delays, bus the return of the tape back into itself... creating a feedback loop (not like sssskreeetch feedback, but, the output will be coming back in, and going out, and coming back in) |

some guy (i forget his name) released an ambient type album of old tapes of his, that over time degraded... and while he was listening, the tape was degrading more and more... so he recorded this, and so the album is like this music loops playing over and over, getting more degrated, and fucked up, but apparently its really awesome sounding havnt heard it yet, but sounds sweet |

Yeah, that was pretty much what he said. Aparently, he used three of them, and would create these really intricate feedback noise arrangements.... |

Thats really cool. I'll try to do this when my reels come in. I want to try to sequence a track through tape splicing. |
