Studer A807 How (not) to thread the tape to circumvent the tape going across fixed guides near head
Very short demonstration of how (not) to thread the tape on a Studer A807 to circumvent the tape scraping against fixed guides in the head block area.
It is possible, for a while, but you cannot wind an entire tape this way.
This video is a response to the excellent video by @Foxbat9000 czcams.com/video/MJtKkrFAImw/video.htmlsi=C2MptQ2AfSYhxCuh

Fixing a Fostex R8 that would not play and spool correctly; but a problem remains
zhlédnutí 232Před 2 měsíci
Today I am fixing another Fostex R8 where the plastic capstan wheel was slipping, and the spooling motor wheels did the same. This is a common problem with these decks. Fortunately, John from www.tascamninja.com/ makes aluminium replacements. Replaced the belt also. Now, the deck plays and spools perfectly. But unfortunately, a problem remains: the arm on which the right tension roller is mount...

This is a demonstration of a simple script that I made to generate test-tones for audio measurements. I use it mainly for testing and calibrating taperecorders.

      I do not think that you got the grasp of the video. Maybe I did not explain it enough. A possible scenario is when you recorded a 2tr tape with butterfly heads, then record new audio over it using narrow track head (and accompanying narrow track erase head). Then there will be audio leftover. See the recent video from Foxbat.

      Any Studer is a good choice. Every one has separate good and maybe some weaker points, but that can be found online easily. All sound fabulous. My ears are not capable of distinguishing the sound quality between them, when the machines are properly aligned and calibrated. Just go for the one you can get your hands on!

    Hello Sir, I wanted to thank you for your work of archival on your website which helped me to find documentation on a calibration tape I found which is the AGFA Bezugsband 9,5 DIN 45513. I didn't have any papers in the box as you did! I was really surprised to see someone having this old of a tape with the exact same sitckers I have too :) I was wondering wether I could use this today as I don't have any 3.5ips calibration tape but I have no idea what the reference magnetic flux is nor the equalization but I assume this would be IEC (CCIR) since it was made in germany? Cheers from France, Martin

    • @PhilipvanderMatten
      @PhilipvanderMatten Před 2 měsíci

Somewhere in the eastern half of the United States would be best for me. On the other hand, I also want to visit continental Europe so that I can see the Alfa Romeo museum, and possibly the BMW and/or Porsche museums. So if that trip ever happens, I will include a visit to Walter Stutz's waVox museum. And/or north to The Netherlands to see your collection, Philip! 😎👍❤️

    nice demonstration. You may want to power up the eraser a bit further away from the tape and make your revolutions around the reel a bit slower. One side of erasing should do the whole tape, no reason to flip tape over to do the other side unless you have 1 inch or 2 inch tape.

    the equipment should please the eye, ear, touch and smell. When I was younger, I also believed in instruments, now hearing is important to me because tape recorders are used for listening. the recipient is ultimately a person, not a device. I once had an A80 and master tapes from which vinyl records were pressed. Now I'm 52 years old and like most people I can no longer hear 16 kHz even at a level of +20 dB ;-)
