Hello y'all,
 
We have been experimenting and can now offer an expanded version of M400 tapes.  In an effort to maximise what can be achieved with the predetermined format we are now producing 6 track tapes.
 
Standard three track tapes have always offered two additional blends at the mid points between A and B and B and C but now you can have 5 unique voices from the new 6 track format.
 
Mike Dickson is the first to try this out and had the following bespoke set made:
 
MKII Flute - MKII Violins - MKII Brass - String Section - Eight Choir - Boys Choir giving him the following voices:
 
Track A ) Flute/Vs  Track A+B ) Vs/Brass   Track B) Brass/SS   Track B+C) SS/Eight  Track C) Eight/Boys
                                                                                   
That's Mike's choice but these blends can be anything you want from our Tape Library. 
 
It's all about maximising the possibilities and reducing the inherent limitations.  These tapes open up a host of new sound combinations, all recorded on wonderful EMI stock of course.
 
Best,
 
Martin and JB
ps we don't charge any extra for the new format.......................yet!
