Fostex 16 tk 1/2" B-16 near Fairfield Cnty Connecticut

Post by glamacchia »

I am sure this is the wrong forum to ask this but if any one has or knows of one who has in their attic a Fostex B-16 1/2" r-r I would like to rent it from you and bring a portable computer and 16 tracks of i/o to your place and transfer a 38 minute tape from 1989 that was recorded in Hong Kong.

I am not worried about what they used for rec. eq in Hong Kong. I do not know if they used Dolby C. I'll fix both after the fact if needed.

Preferably within 100 miles of Shelton CT.


Be Well


ps my email guy@pearmainstudio.com
ps ps also a tascam MR 16 1/2" would work. Tascam used DBX nr I believe but it was recorded on a FOSTEX according to the tape
