I was always more of a TDK guy, but a great ad nonetheless.
Tale of the Tape: Spotlight on Maxell, the Origin of the Blown-Away Guy, and the Comeback of Cassettes
Cassettes coming back is stupid.
BTW, I am OK with still using mini-discs - I mailed my old MD recorder to The Guv. He wanted it.
“ARGH! The GUV!!!” he exclaimed in frustration.
@Bix @InUnfunky what? You don’t miss the hiss? :P
I know what you’re missing- the “trick” where you could skip to the next track by hearing the current track whizz by very quietly at hyper-chipmunk speed as the deck searched for a moment of quiet. Like a Ska version of Pachelbel’s Canon… So very high tech.
Don’t NEVER say “a ska version of Pachalbel’s ‘Canon’!”
🤬
Unless you got some.
😱🤓😝
@InUnfunky @Bix I regret nothing! :).
Now, that *that*, put it on tape, and fast forward it. You’ll go back in time.
@InUnfunky @MookyTroubadour @Bix Reel to reel is the way to analog tape warmth, not cassettes. DBX goes a long way toward quieting the beast, but still.

Let’s solicit the carefully considered opinion of our very own @Bix 🤓, shall we?
