You can apply a pretty good amount of de-noise to tape.  Use it within RX7 instead of as a plug in, and select the highest quality render (D?).  Do it in multiple passes if needed, I'll typically do an overall light pass, then possibly a second pass for specific noisy regions, which could be spots in time or an overall frequency range. 

Related but different from music work, I have used de-noise with spoken word content in a room with an air conditioner running full blast, reduced it to a low hiss with two passes of roughly -12 for different aspects of the noise.  Room sounds silent.  Previously the AC was extremely distracting and masked some low level speech.   The voices sound somewhat different, there is a penalty, but they don't have obvious artifacts.  A person not familiar with the raw audio would not think it sounded off.
