Re: Tape looping/sequencing

[Bowerbird@webtv.net]

I'm interested in constructing closed tape loops, ol'-skool
sequencing/editing/sampling. I'm not really interested in real-time
looping.  Right now I have an Akai 1700. I bought it a few months back,
not knowing how downright impossible it would be to get any information
whatsoever on the basic techniques of tape editing.... what basic
materials do I need?, -what type of adhesive do I use to splice? What's
an "editing block"? Please excuse the dumb questions- I really am this
clueless about it.
