Analog Hackers


It should be fun to hack a portable cassette recorder to run at 7.5ips, 2 track stereo.


According to the tiny air gap of cassete recorder heads could it be equivalent to 15ips reel to reel?


Is it worthwhile? Increasing motor voltage (attention to warm up or fire hazard safety). Changing to simpler class A (electrons flowing all the time) electronic amplifier stages with simpler wave filters or EQs as in top quality reel to reel tape analog recorders.


Reel to reel 7.5ips or higher sounds so nice anyway.
