continuing cassette loading issues:

2007-10-18 by spistrich

now im  having problems loading  the  patches taken off the 
rhodeschroma site...
 I can get my old cassette to load, but it skips the  6 or so sounds on 
the damaged tape area offsetting the sequence of programs by those 6 
missing spots. (I had recorded this out of my polaris for backup when i 
worked on its voices -that went fine).  The problem is now after I 
downloaded the 'new' factory patches from the polaris site and  
transferred them to a  new  cassette on my home stereo deck ,  but 
whenever i try to load them  with my radio shak  trs-80  it cuts out 
with a honk after 1-5 patches have been loaded... Ive checked 
the "verify' and it doesnt seem to acknowlege the new  cassette tape 
signal from the download, in contrast , it does blink to verify my old 
cassette. The signal levels on the 2  tapes  seem similar. it is 
getting frustrating...any ideas as to why the polaris doesnt like the 
download cassette?
