Conny Plank used a Scully tape machine with 7.5 ips and 15 ips. He had two of these machines. He prefered 7.5 ips. It was recorded without noise reduction. Dirk Matten kraftwerk@mailman.xmission.com schrieb am 29.03.02:
It's not a copy of the master, it's the generation before the master-tape, which has single ended noise reduction.
Just curious:
What tape machine and what brand of tape was used for the original recording? I understand from your website that your copy is 7.5 ips 2-track, but how was the music originally recorded? 15 ips multi-track? Who decided that a noise reducing aftertreatment was necessary, and why wasn't Dolby A or something like this used in the first place (Not that I'm a great admirer of companders.)?
