    Nice video! One thing that I noticed is that you are trying to record on the tape using only the audio signal but to record properly you need the bias. I dont know for sure how it works but you need to modulate a high frequency signal (something like 50khz to 150khz) with the sound signal and then feed it to the record head. If you plan to continue using normal Type I cassette tapes you can search on the internet how the bias signal is generated on a tape deck for a Type I cassette and then you can try to replicate it on your project.

    This is really cool and interesting. Don't give up. The interference can be helped by shielding and moving the motor away. The heads can be attached to the amplifiers using shielded cables.

    The reel to real machines go outside to outside, you spooled outside to the inside of your uptake reel so that might have an affect on your tension, but I don't know if you would have to reengineere yout gears to get your uptake to go in reverse

    Hello, ive been trying a similar device, creating a casette recorder / player, and the magnetic fields of a dc motor can interfer with the devices sound, and so keeping the motor away from the tape head or any connective areas, can decrease the noise, and the frequency should be lower, 2 9V batteries is a lot, i have got no résult yet, but i will attempt with a lower voltage, and may i ask, does your magnetic have a common ground or is it DC?

    i picked up 8 1/4 in 1/8 basf spools you may not know about the they used to sell 1/8 tape on them for ddubing game
    i had 40 pancakes from the usa before prices got silly so i have some 1/8 reel to reel decks
    doing anything with 1/8 reel to reel is a right pain i can tell you best to keep away

    I'd like to offer some constructive criticism. In my opinion, the effects at 3:08, 6:32, and 7:29 are off-putting and add nothing to the video. Your channel has some very interesting projects, and I'm excited to see what you'll do in the future, so I hope all the more that you don't inadvertently begin to make your videos annoying and hard to watch in the name of production value.
