Sticky Shed Tapes

05/28/2019

Anyone starting a tape label? I’ve got a duplication rig that needs a new home. I’ll walk you through how to get everything up and running and include all the cabling you need. Full disclosure, four of the wells work perfectly on record & reproduction but the other four could be brought back to full strength with some light tech work. I’ve got the service manual and can include in .pdf form that too. When these 4 Tascam 302s are at 100% they can make 7 tapes at once in real-time.

$500 for:

4x Tascam 302 dual well tape decks
4x Stereo RCA x 1/4" cables
4x 1/8" trs link cables

I’m happy to share that SST will offer the option of duplication on recycled tape. I’m the first to get excited about new tapes from far away places, but there’s already lots of tapes out there.

There is a way to release music in an analog format without generating plastic.

HOT TAKE. It's always been cool to spool

Sales are soaring and current stars are releasing tracks on the format… but is anyone actually listening to them?

In October, I traded tapes with friends new and old at The Monkey House & we danced to tape deejays all night. In the collective spirit of the oneness of tape friendship, I think it might be time to gather again...

! HEY BANDS ! FREE TAPE RELEASE FOR THIS EVENT !
- I'd love to recycle old tapes into new small batches (7 or less tapes per batch) of releases from local artists to disperse into the community of tape listeners. If this is something you'd be interested in please email stickyshed(a)gmail(dot)com

I am so excite. It’s finally here.

National Audio's Engineering/Production Team poses proudly with the first complete jumbo reel of the new FerroMaster C456™ cassette tape to come off the line! Two years of patient development and refinement has paid off with a tape worthy of our pride.

The ferric oxide is coated onto jumbo reels of tape approximately 7” wide and 13,000 feet (3962.4 m) long. They are slit into 40 pancake reels the width to be loaded into cassettes. That's 520,000 feet (158,496 m) of tape!

C456 is not a replacement for vanishing tape supplies. It's the highest quality super ferric type I tape ever made. When our employees heard it for the first time, it left them cheering.

Thanks to our tape production line team for their tireless work. You did it!

Stay tuned. More news soon.
