Recording on cassettes

Fond memories of the Fostex x18… probably rose tinted!

Portastudio popped my cherry lol!!! Then it was the Tascam TSR-8

I made an album several years ago recording just about everything onto tape. I got a Radio Shack "desktop recorder" (pictured on the album), which they were still selling new at the time for some reason. I recorded just about every part into the tape recorder using either the built-in mic or line in. Sometimes i would play a part through my monitors and hold the mic of the tape recorder up to the speakers. Then I played everything through the line out into Ableton and did the arranging there, Pretty fun stuff: https://wingo.bandcamp.com/

That’s a pretty sick album, actually

Yeah, I just listened all the way through… very enjoyable!

Approved ! Awesome tracks @wingo

@wingo that shit sounds rad

@wingo Nacirema Tiprips is atmospheric AF. Soundtracks. Hope you compose soundtracks. Standard scores tend to bore my pants off. Not in a good way.

Yeah Nacirema Tiprips is my favorite as well, it draw the attention, very nice track.

Beer is on me @wingo !!

Hey thanks for the kind words, everybody! I’m totally down to do soundtracks, if you have any connections, @ludicrouSpeed :slight_smile:
