Re: [oberheim] Data Cassettes for Matrix-6 and 1000

2017-07-25 by Daniel Forró

Maybe a few other points:

- check by ear on some normal audio music record if head azimuth is OK (enough high frequencies in the signal)

- switch off any Dolby, dbx or other NR

- monophonic record is OK (or stereo with both channels the same signal) - use appropriate cable between tape deck and your sound card

- set the optimal playing and recording level

- don’t use any compression or other effect in computer during the recording

- don’t use comprised formats for saving the audio - use WAV or AIFF

- the resulting file with be large, but don’t use any data compression when uploading it

Thank you in advance.
