I see the mistake about the, "play head" has already been pointed out, I think the film inside is most likely some sort of magnetic shielding or static shielding of some sort probably not too important either.

I never knew a felt pressure pad was really a play head. Those black protective films you threw away might have been the record heads. Perhaps the rollers are also playback heads.

thanks!

Amazing process.

WTF! You forgot/threw out the film inserts on either side of disks. This keeps reels and tape away from the cassette case via ridges. Do you actually know what your doing?

Cool ethereal tones✨✨👌

Great tutorial man I can make a quality tape delay now

Can you record onto the loop once it's fully finished or will it mess up the loop

Its like I'm back in 2008 watching Chef John on Food Wishes but, its an alternate universe. I dig it.

Sorry, but this comes 20 Years to late for me.

🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Why?

Using the lyra "live" I think will always be 50%....there is only really a quick volume fade if it goes astray

Will you use the soma pipe in this episode it would be challenging to see it from the above position

A new idea for me to see you performing within a lightshow

"Go gracious" - what a lovely expression!

Awesome idea with the post-it. Cheers!

What is the point of this?

and they began to inquire among themselves which of them it was that should do this thing

With all due respect, I don’t believe you understand how magnetic tape records sound or how recorded tape is played back. The ferric oxide (optimal for recording low-frequency sound) and chromium dioxide molecules (optimal for recording higher-frequency sound) which are impregnated on the tape can be electromagnetically excited by the recording head of a cassette recorder, altering their axis and alignment on the tape and creating a pattern unique for each frequency of the varying sounds being recorded. The thin metal band with the felt pad you are showing merely applies non-abrasive pressure of the tape as it moves across the record (or separate play) head in a cassette player, creating good physical contact with no air gap during recording (or playback). The reproduction of sound from the tape is not a function of picking up “vibrations,” as you said, but rather reading the axis and alignment of the individual ferric oxide and chromium dioxide molecules on the recorded tape and converting it electromagnetically back into the varying frequencies of the original recorded sounds. And those dark, thin plastic case liners on both interior sides of the cassette case-which you so cavalierly said can be discarded-are vital to the proper functioning of the cassette itself: they provide an ultra-low-friction surface against which the spools of tape can glide so as not to place “drag” on the tape which might otherwise slow the speed of tape transport across the heads and artificially raise the pitch of sound as it is recorded or lower the pitch of sound as it is played back. I oversimplified here, but I hope this helps.

i had to leave. the commentary was hurting ears

Worst video ever! You want to make a video about cassettes and you don't even know some technical terms like "capstan" or something else.. In addition to all the points mentioned by shipofthesun I will add this: not a good idea to manipulate the tape with your naked fingers, so the grease naturally present on the fingers will be transferred to the head! Bah...

terrible performance, through this gap the glue from the adhesive tape will dirty the head besides, what is so interesting or unusual about what you show? on the one hand, the tape is placed in front of the slider, on the other side, behind the slider - the world championship, but really a pile of garbage

❤❤❤👍🏻😊☺️☺️👍🏻

You kids have Google to teach you the proper names of the parts of a cassette. Maybe learn them?

Watching all these UA-cam “cassette” mythology shows is such a laugh. Non of these people know what they’re talking about and create so many assumptions it’s comical.

Vibrations, tape head in the cassette shell, oh my.

I have over 10,000 cassette tapes for sale going cheap. They are used/tested branded blanks and there are in addition about 4000 pre-recorded, mostly chart, etc. Msg for details. Thanks.

Interesting & thanks. I still don't understand why you removed the 2 black films (you call it a protective cover). They actually help for a smooth tape gliding. I would leave them.

🔥👍👍

What's a cassette tape? I'm joking although I'm sure some have no idea. It sucked when it got jammed in the machine. I remember getting it out, opening, cutting, and taping the ends together to make it work again. Lost the best parts of songs sometimes. Only if I knew then what I know now. So many tricks and great video by the way!

The 'spindles' are called spools, & the spools [are] driven by motors, in conjunction with the pinch rollers.

4:40 Did it never occur to you to apply sticky tape to the side of the wheel to keep the audio tape in place?

2:05 Seriously, you should not comment on matters you have no clue about. You're so wrong it's funny and the only reason I continued to watch.

2:10 You think the "vibration" of the felt is picked up by the "back plate"? You obviously have no clue how magnetic tape stores audio. 😂

What is the point of this? They make tape loop tapes for answering machines

It would be nice with an endless tape for the C64 turbo, but that is probably too short. I need 10-15 seconds, I think.

thats not how tape cassettes work

Philips discovered casettes in 1963, but got practiced by masses since 1979, before that record discs by masses, big tape discs by some, whereas casettes by 'a paucity'. Kol.-India, share.😅😅

Ex owner of a cassette duplication house here. The "protective film" is called a slip-sheet, which provides a slick surface to decrease the friction of the reels while moving. 1:56 Pressure plate and pressure pad. The pad holds the tape against the actual tape head. 2:41 My head hurts. Any vibration in a shell is BAD. All the felt pad does is ensure the tape runs over the playback head correctly and smoothly. All the audio is magnetic, and there is no vibration component. 2:31 All of them have that piece that slides out. 4:26 Reel to reel goes all the way up to 2". 5:06 The capstan pulls the tape. That's the little rubber wheel that spins against the tape when "play" is pressed. It's connected to a big flywheel for stability. The reels do have back tension on them, so they're not just "guides". 6:40 I give up. That's not how you make a cassette tape loop.

I was the cassette doctor in school and I never knew about the post it trick I was using a splicing block from radio shack. Thanks for sharing. From the kingdom of Eswatini.

after i cut the tape it automatically curls up and looks like gift ribbon. i cant make it work..

i need 2 minutes no 2 seconds 🥺

My dad used to hand splice tapes, without any splicing guide or post-its. He was a perfectionist - it as always a diagonal cut and not the slightest bit of adheisive tape was allowed to show after the splice. We were usually splicing tapes that had gotten chewed up in a cheap player or something, so it had to last forever and not be a quck and dirty loop. I still have (and play) those spliced tapes!

Remember, never touch the tape with your fingers. Yeah, sure!

CASSETA AUDIO RETRO.EHE!👍☺️🙂😏

Nice one

Great stuff. We're you playing a variable speed cassette recorder/player or a recorded sample of the tape? Cheers. Lee

You taught me something about my Mackie VLZ with the mutes and alternate outputs. Cheers man!

The pressure pad is not the play head and those inserts you threw away are to assist with the smooth running of the mechanism
