Do you like using type II cassettes or it depends on the type of music?

@tapehead-jeff Ай бұрын

I mostly use Type II and try to avoid Type I since the overall quality is mostly not that good, even good brands still have a high noise level with Type I tapes. Type II however are mostly all have a low noise level. I also have a couple of Type III and IV tapes but use them only for special recordings.

6:10 One single stroke with any pen is enough Mr. OCD lol. Btw wat voor een DAC gebruik je om de muziek van de PC naar de Teac te sturen want daar valt nogal wat winst te behalen, vooral als je zoveel moeite doet zou ik daar vooral niet op bezuinigen.

@tapehead-jeff 2 ай бұрын

Hahaha your comment had me laughing 🥲 To think of it, sometimes I have to redo a song and would also have to un-stroke the number too... OCD problems 🥴 Betreft de DAC, is een Xtreamer uit ergens jaren 00, voor paar tientjes van collega overgekocht toen ik overstapte van direct via de PC naar de media streamer als tussenstation. Hij is inderdaad wel aan vervanging toe, vooral nu hij niet meer in mijn thuisnetwerk te vinden is (weigert nog te babbelen met de computer). Als je nog tips hebt sta ik daar open voor. Moet wel vermelden dat ik nog plannen heb voor in de toekomst als het op de DAC aankomt, maar dat idee is nu nog ver weg.

@ Op marktplaats staat nu een leuke TEAC DAC USB UD-H01. Heeft je PC Firewire 800? Dan kun je daar heel goedkoop wat ouder spul in vinden. Als vervanger van de Xstreamer kun je ook de TEAC NT-503 DAB vinden op marktplaats.

@tapehead-jeff 3 ай бұрын

Don't be put off by the complexity of my video. Most of the settings and stuff I do is unnecessary to make a recording. You can start out simple as I did when I started out. 1. put in a blank or used tape in a deck (does not matter which of the two). 2. connect a source to the deck (Spotify, KZbin or anything in between will suffice). 3. press 'play' and 'record' together at once. 4. wait a second or 2 a 3. 5. start the music source. And you are already recording your own mixtape! Only things you want to keep an eye out are the sound level, you can test this out first by recording a part and rewind and listen to the tape. And lastly you may want to look at how far the tape is done recording. You don't want your last song to cut out because your tape is full ;). After side A is full, flip the tape and repeat steps 1 to 5. Once you get the hang of it you can try more stuff to get better recordings/quality. I and most others started out this way, just experiment until you get to proper result :) If you need any help, let me know I gladly help you out!

i bought this summer that teac deck all restored paid 650€ but was looking new either than working like new, i only stoped recording with efects as i play them using equalizer and a device i had in my father´s home studio, that puts less dynamic original sound at the same level as others this to not have songs that wrongly i set up the levels as some do go to the limit of the scale only by having bass kicks not the voice level as an example , but i do compilations on spotify and send the signal to my stereo amp passing through a dac of an old ES sony minidisc deck that improves the computer sound that i put flat without any efect and it has a DAC from altec lansing but nothing like this brand use to have in early 70´s to record them as they are on spotify with a crossfader of 7 seconds, i have a lot of maxell XLII-S of those years ,mid 80´s maybe and after when they become black ,only in the 90´s when they started to have a grey casing they become hard on rotation putting any deck out of tune due to the extra strenght the engine as to do to roll them tapes inside the casing , started only to use TDK AR, AD-X , AD and type II SA and SA-X and sony UX-pro cassettes that i got for free, when going to buy drugs 400kms from where i live a guy that had the best types of cocaine i ever experienced also Heroin ,so pure that doesn´t slide on silver paper and some boxes of cassettes of those i described and not knowing what to do with them as they had no sound ,he told me in Spanish ,i said to him ,if not needing them can i take some , he said to me "take them all"in Spanish (Queda-te con todas ,eres el mejor cliente que tengo) and i still have a lot of blank tapes, as i only record cassettes now , i only have some metal cassettes as they are not the best for the decks heads but i have some of each better metal cassette ,Sony Metal ES (mid 80´s)BASF Metal IV (till 1984) Maxell MX with the same black casing as the XLII-S and TDK MA, MA-X and the best MA-XG and Sony Metal Master with ceramic casing this last two the best ever metal tapes, the sony XS and XR were bad metal cassettes they were cheaper than a chrome UX-S ,they might sound good just after recording but in a small time they become unheardable

I've never experienced any of my, or others' cassettes, fade over time. I've even bought home recorded cassettes from eBay with old radio programmes on them that sound as good as the original broadcast, and any imperfections are down to the quality of reception or source material in the first place. Same with VHS... as long as they were handled respectfully, they don't degrade and outlast many intervening formats.

The recording knob itself is the big rotary button (which looks like a safe combination knob). As for the level and bias knobs goes, except for the 'Right level pot' they are quite aligned yes. Though it's has to do with the brand and type of tape used. Other brands and tape don't align that well.

Thanks! It was a lot of work getting everything together, most of the devices where bought broken, repaired them myself or even made new stuff to replace missing parts. I'm very happy with the Teac, though it has some weird stubborn problem were it stops without reason, it looks like a small switch inside is not working properly, still have to look into that though. Next to that, I don't really trust the time display, It's to inaccurate in my opinion. Forwarding it by hand does create some slack but the intro music I use catches the wow and flutter from the slack so the music sounds crisp and clear.
