Home Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

RE: R2R - Oxide out wound, how to deal with?

Easy. Give the tape a half-twist as it come off the feed reel, before it passes the heads. Depending on your deck's tape-handling ability, it might be wise to play the tape through, rather than fast-forward.

I've created the problem more than once -- good thing it's simple to solve :-)
