Home Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

Probably a transport problem.

My experience would suggest some sort of transport problem. Any noise, high pitch, rattle etc.? Are the belts OEM or general replacement? Too tight can cause motor bearing problems. Pinch roller? What you describe appears to be caused by un-even tension on the tape as it's being pulled through. Intermittent take-up tension. Just a few ideas. Good luck
