Does anyone have experience with RMGI Studio Master (also known as
EMTEC similar to Quantegy GP9) or ATR Magnetics Master Tape?

Clay,
Yes, I use it a whole bunch. I have some 50
reels of 1" 911 EMTEC that I use pretty consistantly.
It's almost indistiguishable from GP9, which I also
have a bunch of, except that it sheds a bit less so
it's a bit nicer to your heads. It saturates quite
sweetly and sounds lovely! I just got some ATR 2"
stock but haven't used it yet. I've heard that it's
the same formula as Quantegy 499, but not from too
reliable a source. I can let you know as soon as I
track to it.

From all of my tests and input from our other facilities,  it is the same as Quantegy 479 in performance.

Having new production of magnetic tape in Pennsylvania is good news for
us analog geeks.
