I checked the azimuth with the same 16kHz signal and the oscilloscope and the phases are rock solid with the fixed roller rather the ball bearing in the left tape guide. That is a clear win for the factory configuration. #RevoxB77 #AnalogAudio #MagneticRecording #ReelToReel #HiFi #Tape

Hi to all, I updated the page about the #RevoxB77 mk II on my home site. I studyed the effect of the popular mod that consists in replacing the original fixed roller on the right tape guide with a ball bearing. The results seem marginally better with the original factory configuration, though.

I used my reel to reel recorder as a tape delay in Soupçons, you can hear it in the drum machine track at the very beginning (further processed via a bandpass filter driven almost to self oscillate and a chorus). I created a tape loop that was quite flimsy and the imperfections added a lot to the character 😍#ReelToReel #MusicProduction #AnalogAudio #RevoxB77
If you are curious to listen to the difference, here is Réminescence bounced back from the #ReelToReel recorder. It is a mp3, unfortunately, but you can compare with a previous toot, that included the digitally produced file. #Music #AnalogAudio #RevoxB77 #MastoArt #MastoMusic With the #dbx type I noise reduction active, the dynamic range approaches the 90dB 😳
And since I like a lot to have some physical medium in my hands when I finish the production of a new piece of #music, I transferred Réminescence on tape au 15 ips with dbx type I. I had to install a new reel on a #LPR90 pancake 🧐 I like working with the recorder for a final bounce, even if most of my production chain is digital. #ReelToReel #RevoxB77 #AnalogAudio

I bouced all my New Star album on a #RevoxB77 mk II reel to reel recorder at 15 ips and created a #YouTube video.

If you appreciated #SilkDust, the game that I recently released as an open source project, you may also appreciate the original music I wrote for it. Here is a video of a #RevoxB77 reel to reel tape recorder playing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nI_uF-8gJH4 #TextAdventure #music #mastoart #reel2reel #opensource #noai #indie

I got two metal champagne NAB adapters for the #RevoxB77. With the blue reels they look amazing. They keep the reels more firmly in place than the adapters I #3Dprinted. #AnalogAudio
