I miss rewinding tape

[drundall]

It's funny, many moons ago I did pre production on an old (nubus!) PT III rig. The singer told me after vocals, "I don't like this, man. I used to use the rewind time to think and prepare how I was going to sing the next take, this is instant, so I don't have that time anymore."

No fresh tape smell though!

Or you could back up... dfegad

Aaah come on, let's not get carried away now...






When I said varipitch, I ment varispeed, I think! haven't used the damn thing for so long, I forgot what it was called! Someone invent a good digital clocking system that can handle all this stuff properly- PLEASE

Whadaya mean? Waste time making copies? Don't need to because all of my hard drives are still making loud clicking and whining noises so I know that they are all still working
