tape dream                
                                 
                                          
 for  storing  music  on.  also data  but 
 at  this   point   in  time  that's  not 
        really important i think.         
                                          
                                          
      types of tape       
                                          
           class i - "bad" iron           
         class ii - good chromium         
      class iii - bad iron part two       
        class iv - dangerous metals       
                                          
 rumors exist about a secret class v tape 
         that is actually useful.         
                                          
                 bias                 
                                          
 class i  uses  one  hundred  and  twenty 
   micro-something while the others all   
 use   seventy    of   the   same   unit. 
                                          
                                          
         aha and        
                                          
 class  iv  is apparently  too  strong to 
 be used  on  class  i players.  it  will 
 sound  too   lound  and   it  cannot  be 
 completely erased. this  is  very  well. 
  maybe some wonderful blending effects   
            could be achieved?            
                                          
 they also  gnaw at the tape heads  a bit 
      better than earlier tape types.     
                                          
                                          
        artifacts         
                                          
 good tapes  are decent  and have  a good 
 high  frequency presence, bad tapes  are 
 lofi if not outright  bad. idk,  i kinda 
                 like it.                 
                                          
 bias  loss: if you forget  the bias  who 
 knows  whats   even   on  there  anymore 
                                          
  flutter: kinda quick pitch variations.  
   beautiful, wonderful, extraordinary.   
                                          
 wow: a slower flutter,  usually  several 
 seconds long. what  up.  both  of  these 
    increase when tape speed decreases.   
                                          
 print through:  tapes rub sound  on each 
 other  if  theyre  alone  for  too  long
