I was a concert ‘taper’ for many years. I still have all my master DAT’s, as well as all the tapes I received in trades. Still have my whole field recording rig, too. Mics and all, including the Tascam DA-P1 and a couple Sony D8’s.

@jriggy that is just too cool. ‘Tapers’ such as yourself are responsible for recording and preserving an incredible treasure trove of music that would otherwise be lost forever. I got into trading a little so I could access this music that couldn’t be bought from a store. I had some friends who were really into trading and got me hooked. Have you since transferred your music off of your DAT tapes? |
@rhg3 i have not. I did give some of the best recordings I pulled to a guy who uploaded them, I think. I believe a source of mine has been needed to fill the gap only once or twice. |
