Are VCRs the World's Cheapest Hi-Fi Reel-to-Reel?

Are VCRs the World's Cheapest Hi-Fi Reel-to-Reel? This may sound like a clickbait title to some, but how far off from the truth is it? You may say I am stretching the definition of what defines a "Reel to Reel", but think about it for a second. How different is a VHS tape being "spun" in your VCR th...

Re: Cheap Spring Reverb Solution Volume IV - Budget Consumer Equipment (FOSTEX 3180)

I never heard the ValveVerb but of this I would say it's kinda unique inna low-fi way. I reckon somebody should do a post on reverb pedals; mebbe I will someday, as I have ... more than one. You should absolutely do that. I would do it but I don't have any reverb pedals to test haha! Cheers, Mario

...I like it so much that I made an impulse response of it so I can use it when I'm mixing in the box.

I'm not familiar with this process can you please explain?

Re: Cheap Spring Reverb Solution Volume IV - Budget Consumer Equipment (FOSTEX 3180)

Thanks for the reply everyone! That Russian Delay/Reverb Unit looks killer!!! That things got like double the number of tape heads compared to a Space Echo! I'd love to hear a demo of that sonsabitch. I'm surprised I haven't heard about the EV spring reverb before. Some of these units seem to "slip ...

Cheap Spring Reverb Solution Volume IV - Budget Consumer Equipment (FOSTEX 3180)

Hello everyone, Another installment into my "Cheap Spring Reverb" series. This time I take on the Fostex 3180. This noisy little machine adds a nice sheen to any track I pass through it.

Any love for the Tascam MS-16, I made a "Review and Rundown" video.

I absolutely love this machine and hope to spread the love with it! Does anyone else have any opinions on this gem? I know there's a whole debate about the 15 ips and 30 ips hopefully I don't ruffle any feathers in here.

Cheers,
Mario

The Infamous Fostex MN-50

Hello everyone, I made a quick overview and demo video for the Fostex MN-50. I was surprised to see that there were zero videos on YouTube show casing this compressor. If you've been on these forums long enough you must have seen the name of this unit come up again and again. Often touted as the sec...
