Data Cassettes for Matrix-6 and 1000

Data Cassettes for Matrix-6 and 1000

2017-07-24 by 4wc6grfy5fbugzttr5cmbbdpazyer6qkhjep4kw5@...

Cleaning out some old books, I ran across two original data cassettes:

Show quoted textHide quoted text

Matrix-6 Factory Stock Patches / Volume 1A (dated Nov14,1985), and

Matrix-6 1,000 Factory Patches Volume 12 (no date stamp)


I don't have anything to play a cassette on anymore, but that wouldn't be hard to get.


Are these of use to anyone on the group?
What would be the best way to post the information?


Please let me know what I can do with these.

Yes, please publish them somewhere! :-)
Afterwards, you could end selling the data cassettes on eBay or similar...

Okay.
But, what EXACTLY do I do?

I hate to sound like a newbie, but how do I do this?

Convert the audio into a .wav or .mp3 or .aac or AIFF or ALAC file and save that?

Let's say I can get access to a cassette player.
Then what do I need to make this happen?

Thanks.

Hello,

I assume you have a cassette player, and some possibility to record 
audio on a computer.

Connect the line out of the cassette player to the line in of your 
computer (or audio interface).
Spool the cassette to the beginning
Activate record on the computer (your DAW, Audioprogram, what ever)
Press play on the cassette player.
When the cassette has ended stop on the recording on your computer.
Upload the recorded file to the files section of the group.

Regards
Florian

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.
