Title: Tape Wharehouse
Post by: Depechemode1993 on July 16, 2004, 02:30:53 PM

well I know some tapers actually buy tapes from there. and since I just got a D8 I am looking to buy DAT tapes. I got a show coming up soon and want to buy some 90 min DAT tapes. I looked at Guitar Center and they were like $10 a piece!!!! WTF. so I was hoping someone could tell me what a good reliable DAT tape was? plus if anyone tapes stealth what the level they usually record for rock concerts? just to give me a idea of what I should manually record at.

They don't have them listed on their website's catalog, but I buy 90 DDS tapes at the store all the time.  I bet if you call or email 'em you can get those shipped . . .

Can't find the green ones anymore, I'm not sure if they changed the packaging.
