Thankee. No, there was no physical tape used. But I do like the idea of using physical tape at some stage. I don't have the facilities though, unfortunately.

Wonderful. It's a refreshingly modern take on one of the oldest forms of electroacoustic composition. Entirely digital but very much alive and soulful as the original tape compositions were.

I should dig out the reel-to-reel. Only thing is that old thing is in desperate need of alignment and biasing... Probably by now it needs a total overhaul.

If it still works or when I eventually get around fixing it in the case that it's fucked, we should totally do that. It's one of those domestic ones from a now defunct brand National, which some people on here might remember. It was how Panasonic, got away with selling shit to the domestic market.

I'm afraid I didn't. I really should be more on top of that.

For some reason, Dropbox completely spazzed out between my two laptops/getting one fixed. I'm quite ticked off about it, too.
