Super Awesome AKAI 300 series 1/4″ tape machine. This is a great deck and has loads of cool features. These 360D’s are very durable and reliable machines. Nice features to note are auto reverse, instant reverse, sound on sound recording, manaural 4 track recording which is really an awesome feature, really opens up the possibilities for instrument recordings. I strictly use reel to reel recorders in the studio, in my opinion nothing sounds better. Enjoy the recording! If you are into sound and recording like I am pick one up you will enjoy it!
