[sdiy] Tape Deck Module Brainstorm (was Fw: Re: [AH] Sampler Module for Modular????)

[m.bareille at free.fr]

Hi ,

Nice idea Kyle !

I suggest the use of some low speed Revox B77/PR99 . Rich guys will replace
Revox by Studer A8xx  ;)

- they have a vary speed integrated , almost nothing to do to adaprt a CV
control of the speed !

- they have usualy 2 or 3 speed switchables on the front panel  who are
mulltiples ...

- you can do tape superb tape echos/delays if you re-inject output into the
inputs while in recording mode

-Channels can be switched On/Off and controled independantly ..

- It is easy to do tapes loops instead to use the full reel ( Fripptronics
like..)

- you will need a lot of space in your studio and many be a body-builded roady
to install everything on the desk and avoid to break your back !

Cheers,

Marc B.
