Hi all,

I guess I must be new here cuz I think this is a new list, huh?

I've never had the chance to run one of those ampex 350's or other pro 
machines, but I've had a few ampex home machines in my day.  They were sure 
built nice.  I wish I had a couple of them back again.  For open reel tape, I'm 
now using a pair of pioneer 7 inch reversable machines, 707 or 717 or something 
like that.

I'll be glad to know if anyone is still seriously using open reel tape.

Take care

Howard, near Milwaukee

Well, that's a good thing! Welcome to TapeVille, buddy! We're trying to become 
both a 
discussion list and a magazine, so, if for some odd reason, tapes are in the 
news, then we will try 
to put it on here ASAP.
