Finnaly the tape boys have returned i love the vids

To clear the tapes, you can use an old tape demagnitizer like the ones sold by Radio Shack under the Realistic brand (they sold them from the 60's to the 90's).

electroplating? idk if the magnetic medium is conductive enough

well obviously microwave but i think it should be for like. 5 seconds. or until the first spark on the screws or some other hardware appears

Great video thanks y'all

Could you also just put the electric tape on the cassette directly to block the erasehead?

Genuinely one of the best production vids and tape based videos iv ever seen. 10/10 lads.

That's what it's all about, having fun, looking forward to the next one. Thanks

I think ive found my tribe...lol

This was a great and educational watch! Using FL to make ambient jungle is WILD 😂

Briliant !!!Thnx a lot guys!!!!!

Cheers so much for doing this. Game changer.

WARM!!!! He said the word! Tbh ive been looking for the least painful way of making a tape echo. So it's good to know this stuff is being dealt with. I only have space for synths. Not a Hacking work shop. I have to say that tape loop sounds gorgeous. You guys should make those tape machines commercially.

Very cool. What recording speed do you recommend for lofi

Bros I need some help in one of your videos where you were showing your equipment you had a thing where you can connect into multiple aux cord TRS chords I'm experiencing signal loss with a 2 to 1 splitter so I'm concerned what do I need to do to run like 4 or 5 things that are all basically TRS stereo aux 3.5 does that plastic Star splitter thing work pretty decent I see those for sale but I wasn't sure if I was also going to experience other signal loss.

You're from Oxford wicked! enjoyed the video.

Great video ! Happy to see you back !!

interesting. i’ve heard older cassette players are better quality, something refurbished would surely be better than a player built today

Well, that was far and away the best, most concise summary of tape usage in the modern age I've ever seen. My career as an ambient drone musician is now over. :P

Three minutes in, and already you guys are surpassing most DIY tape music making advice by far. Well done!

It's great to see a new video from you guys. It always looks so cold in your studio! How do you avoid sound on sound when making a gapless loop?

Hey hello! So far the videos of you that I watched felt more like "two friends having fun together with inside jokes and stuff". Il liked that, but now, this is on another level, incredibly useful. Thank you so much!

I purchased the micro dictadrone from you guys a few weeks ago. It's neat to me to record sounds made on the worlds most expensive music equipment with it and then turn around and use it. I mean, im recording solos from symphony Orchestras and slowing and chopping . It's just unique to own and use.

11:06 erase head muting tip ❤

Have you guys heard of 10-turn potentiometers? They give very fine control. One disadvantage is they take ages to go from one end to another but a bypass switch would help for speed.

25:29 this is what heaven sounds like

0:48 actually produce a song? I thought I’d gear heads were just meant to salivate over our tools, not make stuff 😅😅😅😅 I joke if course - looking forward to sitting down to watch this whole thing😊

Awesome stuff!

As a 50yr old dude with fond memories of riding my bike to my dishwashing job with my walkman-style tape deck jammin metal mix tapes and recording jam sessions with friends on models slightly larger, the irony of this video in 2024 is not lost on me. I must have owned ten different "Walkman" style tape players in my youth, but Im still young enough that, in my time they were all basically called, "Walkman"s" My favorite was a Seiko brand that my mom got me for Christmas one year, it took so much abuse and worked until the door fell off and I think I actually just lost it. Tapes are so nostalgic for me. It was all about the quality of headphone one used as to the listening experience though.

Waiting for mine in the mail now 🤘🏻

Ace work

Welcome back boys...missed you...👍 BTW - where do you get the antistatic plastic stuff? I'm using insulating tape over the erase head and it's not always successful...

Great video, although I don’t think I’ve got the patience to make my own tape loops. I think I’ll order one from you guys instead in the new year. 😊

Leave it out in the sun, drag it behind a skateboard, blanch it, put it in the dryer (no heat), put it in a dirty situation then use "tape cleaner," ribbon curling technique then respool, fold /crease it in a uniform pattern (every 1mm), mess it up first and then record it

All I want is this but with a high pass filter on it too, so I can run drones through throughout my performances (and I don’t wana use up a track on my Octatrack)

Cool

Legendary

Nice!

When's this gonna be available boys...? 👍

Very dope!! I like it a lot.

Please tell me you people have a samplepack or something. These really remind me of zero-G's "ghost of the machine"

Dude really said "👶"

will the DictaDroneSLiDE-FM V3 be back in stock soon?

I recently learned that the darker colored tape is higher quality than the lighter brown/rust colored tape.

Thx very helpful.

Quality content

I like the content, but this video could have been cut down to 50% of this lenghts. Who wants to watch someone taking his time, amlost falls asleep while speeking.

Im looking for a shoebox style old tape recorder with stereo outs so I can monkey around with modding and bending in Stereo!! Everybody seems to think they have priceless artifacts on ebay with these old tape decks though.

What is the third pot wired into the 2399 board? I understood there were only two you coud hook up to it! 1-the one it comes with, the one that substitutes the r27 then..?
