.&&&&&&.&& #### ##### ..&.&&..&.
&.....&&.. .&&&.&.&&.
&....&.&.. 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 &&&&.&&.&.
