2" Tape is still not obsolete in the recording industry and I really don't see that ever happening. Even David Torn still uses a micro-cassette player for his loops from time to time - In the end it's just a matter of preference. The thing about the music community is good pieces of gear never really go out of style. Do you really think there will be a day when people will no longer desire a all tube amp, or the simplicity of a stomp box? We aren't talking computers here that get out of date in 6 months. These things last - even when they don't sound too good they usually have a character that somebody picks up on and uses in some creative way. Man have you guys seen how many Theremin players are out there in Los Angeles alone? :::-----Original Message----- :::From: Relay [mailto:relaydelayband@earthlink.net] :::Sent: Monday, August 25, 2003 12:12 PM :::To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com :::Subject: Hard disk recording killed the tape star ::: :::Hi all-- :::This morning at our usual business meeting, I used a cassette recorder :::instead of my usual hand help digital thingies (I have two . . .) and the :::damned audio was undecipherable--we are in the future in a large way, and :::things DO become obsolete . . . :::Gary ::: ::: :::
