A note about our Reel-to-Reel tape. Most of our tapes have already been recorded on. Some may include boxes and leaders intact, and some may not. May or may not have usable labels. Boxes and / or reels may have extraneous labels and / or marking on them. We try and accurately note when they do, but neither are ever guaranteed as it's a tedious task inventorying those aspects on each tape.

Notes about 'old' tape:
Breakage:
See the above notes related to tape being "OLD". Occasionally we'll have tape simply 'break'. This actually doesn't happen as often as you would think it would and is usually associated with trying to thread it onto a reel with excessively 'sharp' edges in the tape 'end load' slot.

Leaders:
Some of this tape is 'old'. Some of it could be said to be 'VERY OLD' (although that's a relative descriptor). If a tape has a 'leader', it will have been attached from the factory / manufacturer / user by adhesive tape. Adhesive tape tends to loose some of it's 'adhesion' qualities over time, so it's not un-common for a leader to become 'un-stuck' to it's associated recording tape. This usually happens the first or second time you try and play a tape. DOH!!! Well, that's how it goes. You'll now need to hone up on your splicing skills and re-splice / tape it back if you wish to use the tape with a leader (which is almost always preferable.) Leader detachment can even happen with fresh, NOS, sealed, never used tape!


Splices: Occasionally a tape will be spliced (sometimes more than once). If we observe a splice upon our inspection, that looks like it's simply a splice 'midstream' and the tape 'type' was not changed (usually signified by a different 'edge color), we'll usually 'play' / wind the tape to that spot and inspect the quality of the splice. If it looks good, then we'll 'pass' it for our 'grab back / assortment' packs. If there are numerous splices visible, or color changes associated with the splices or in the case of a 'single splice' the person who spliced it did a substandard job, we won't 'pass' it. Occasionally we will miss an issue with a tape that you find that seems beyond what should have 'passed' our inspection. If that's the case, simply notify us and we'll see what we can do to rectify it.

Sticky Shed / Shedding: Occasionally a tape will have 'sticky shed' (means the magnetic material is flaking off of the tape base). We try and catch those for 'non-sale'. If you receive one, simply notify us and we'll see what we can do to rectify it.

 

 



Tape Materials Explained:
"Tensilized" - "Tensilized" is simply a process of pre-stretching tape to eliminate the potential problem of stretching on fast starts and stops. Naturally, this procedure adds somewhat to the cost of the tape infinitivally. All 'Polyester, Mylar and PVC tapes can be 'tensilized'.

"Polyester and Mylar" - Polyester and Mylar are essentially similar in composition. Mylar is the Dupont registered trade name. Polyester is considered the finest base material for recording tape because of it's extra strength and dimensionally stable characteristics. The extra strength of Polyester based tapes allows it's use in 0.5 mil (triple play) tapes. It is usually more expensive than acetate of PVC based tapes. The base material of a tape does not necessarily have any effect upon the quality of the surface coating or frequency response.

"Polyvinyl Chloride" (PVC) and Acetate - Acetate and PVC are dissimilar, but less costly tape base materials. Acetated and PVC are usually found in 1.5 and 1.0 mil tapes. Both materials are satisfactory for most recording purposes.

"MIL THICKNESS" - The thickness of a tape cross section in the most commonly used tapes is 1.5, 1.0 or 0.5 expressed in 'mils' (1.0 mil is 0.001" thick). The thicker the tape, the stronger it is, however, Polyester ("Mylar") is actually many times stronger than acetated; it's strength being required for 1.0 and especially the very fragile 0.5 mil thin tapes. Thickness has no relation to tape quality per se, except that the thinnest tapes are more susceptible to "print through".

PHOTOS OF OLD, DRIED UP, ORIGINAL REEL CLAMPS / HOLDERS / RETAINERS


FRESH, NEW RUBBER
REEL TO
REEL TAPE DECK HUB / SPINDLE CLAMPS / REEL HOLDERS / REEL RETAINERS / SPINDLE CAPS

For Open-reel tape decks. Designed to hold reels on the spindles of decks that did not have built-in Reel locks.
These will fit Akai, Ampex, Concertone, Crown, Dokorder, Panasonic, Pioneer QT-74 / QT-6100 / QT-6600 / T-600 / T-6000 / T-6100, T-6600, T-8800 (and others), Sansui, Sony*, Teac, Rheem, Roberts and other reel-reel tape decks that have standard reel spindles.  Easy and quick to take on and off.

Old, originals are invariable going to be 'slick' and / or have enlarged holes that will not grip the spindle safely / sufficiently anymore.  We know as we have dozens of originals (a few of which are shown above), none of which work well enough to use / trust anymore. Our new / fresh ones are great
to replace your old, dried out / cracked or lost ones.

These are new rubber and will grip well.

$34.99. pair including 'domestic / US' shipping'**
-
Additional pair add $14.50

-
**International / 'non-US' locations add $6.50 shipping

* Still best to use Sony decks in horizontal mode unless you have the original Sony Rubber clamps as they are slightly different w/ a 'wire' clip imbedded inside rubber. These stoppers will work with Sony's when used in horizontal position and if you're 'attentive' while operating the deck, in the 'vertical' position as well.

Web research indicates a length of 3,600 feet
for sale

Pre-owned, Normal Bias, Ampex 407,
1/4" X 10.5" Reel-to-Reel tape. We believe from web research that these are 1097 meters (3,600 ft.) in length. 180 minutes / 3 hours -both directions @ 19cmps (7.5 ips)  (Will require NAB HUB / REEL ADAPTORS). Most have been used and will have recordings on them (we can bulk erase them for additional charge below). May or may not have usable labels. Boxes and / or reels may have extraneous labels and / or marking on them.
Used and likely recorded on, but great shape.
These are from a Planetarium and are the different show programs, so will generally have a 'music bed', with a narrative overlaid. They were indicated to have been recorded on once only. They were recorded in 'half-track / mono' format at 15 ips and are playable on a 'stereo / 4-Track / 2-channel' reel to reel deck capable of that kind of speed (of course the format / speed they were recorded in has no bearing on any future recording / track formats). They are VERY interesting to listen to (again, if you have a machine capable of 15ips. We are inspecting each one individually by running through one of our shop decks, to make sure there's no 'shedding' of the magnetic material, and to inspect reels for 'trueness' and minimal 'run-out'.
We have 'fast wound' each of these twice to inspect for 'shedding / "stick shed"' and none of the Ampex 407's we checked had any issues. They have been in dry Utah for the past few years, then recently shipped to VERY dry Colorado.

Very limited supply w/ currently ONLY 0 remaining in stock. The Ampex 407's currently include boxes. The reel labels and box graphics may vary.

An
interesting note found on the web @ http://tascamforums.com/index.php?showtopic=2964&mode=linearplus
"...Tom Scholz & Boston used Scotch 226 or die for tracks, 996 for mastering...Scotch 966/986 was an "improvement" on 226, but Scholz didn't like it so he stocked up on 226 before it was discontinued, and still uses it today.
A lot of the signature sounds that groups were identified with came form using various tapes on machines tuned for Ampex 456. The key was the way the other tapes sounded on a deck tweaked for 456. Tweaking the machine for another tape would change and maybe ruin the sound. The original Boston sound was best using Scotch 226 on a machine set for Ampex 456 tape."

Applications
3M 226 Audio Mastering Tape features a unique oxide dispersion to significantly reduce print-through without sacrificing signal-to-noise ratio. High output/low noise for critical mastering. That makes it an outstanding choice for music mastering applications—and the clear favorite among music industry professionals.

Pre-owned, Normal Bias, 3M / Scotch 250,
1/4" X 10.5" Reel-to-Reel tape. 760 meters (2,500 ft.) in length and 1.5 mil thickness w/ Polyester base with 'Back Treatment'. 120 minutes / 2 hours -both directions @ 19cmps (7.5 ips)  (Will require NAB HUB / REEL ADAPTORS).
While we realize that most folks are looking for tape to make new recordings on, these have been recorded ONCE with some unique material.
These are from a Planetarium and are the different show programs, so will generally have a 'music bed', with a narrative overlaid. They were indicated to have been recorded on once. They were recorded in 'half-track / mono' format at 7.5 ips and are playable on a standard 'stereo / 4-Track / 2-channel' reel to reel deck
(the one that most everyone has) (of course the format they were recorded in has no bearing on any future recording / track formats).  They are VERY interesting to listen to. We are inspecting each one individually by running through our shop Pioneer RT-909 to make sure there's no 'shedding' of the magnetic material, and to inspect reels for 'trueness' and minimal 'run-out'.
Of course
we can bulk erase them for additional charge below. This batch has their original boxes. Boxes and / or reels may have extraneous labels and / or marking on them.
Used and likely recorded on, but great shape;.

Very limited supply w/ currently approx 0 remaining in stock. The tapes in this batch of Scotch / 3M, 250's include boxes (boxes may be orange  or  blue & white).
