philips 4307 reel to reel tape recorder

This is the great Studer A820 loaded with 1/4″ tape, 1/2″ conversion kit is visible in the box on the left part of the bridge. Audio your listening to is the actual recorder playback

A classic from the late 60s.

I bought this older Sony deck for my second system and to also post videos on YouTube since it is much lighter than my other deck and easier to move to my computer. My Pioneer deck is far better but it’s a little hard to post reel videos as it weighs an absolute ton and I need the machine close to my computer so the recording is “direct line” (was much easier when I had my laptop!). This Sony deck isn’t bad but is not “high end” like my other is. It’s a portable model from the late 60s with a built in amp and the distortion level seems to be rather high. One feature I like about this Sony machine is that it has the ability to play the tape in reverse (as it is here in this video) and also has auto-reverse; strangely my other machine doesn’t. Compare this video to my other reel-to-reel posts and you’ll see what I mean sound wise. The problem could be with the tape as this is the first time I’ve ever played it and I also used a new movie making program for the first time here. I didn’t like the new program much but my normal one keeps freezing on me. Not that bad I suppose.

My Teac X3 4 track reel to reel deck playing an old recording (possibly 1950′s?) of Bill Haley’s 1955 hit ‘Razzle Dazzle’. It was recorded via sound card and then sync’d to the video. I would have used my monster deck (TASCAM 32-2) but it didn’t go down to 3 3/4 IPS and four track, I had recently finished servicing this deck and it is a great little machine with a great smooth sound and can go all the way up to 28KHz (+-3dB). As far as I can tell it was recorded using parallel tracks but there is no apparent stereo separation. Sorry about the low video quality but I did not have a HD camcorder to hand. I bought this tape in a job lot from eBay and I have never heard this recording of this song before, I think it might be quite rare and sounds as if it was recorded from the radio (it sounds like medium wave to me) and might be live. The rest of the tape contains mains hum and a low level recording of some old radio show. An interesting piece of history. No copyright infringement intended.
