Title: MASTERDAT R-184 tapes (3 hours or 2 hours) anyone?
Post by: tapernewb on August 05, 2005, 06:33:23 PM

Hey there. Search didn't turn anything up. Does anyone know if these MASTERDAT R-184 tapes from cassette house are 90m or 60m? Looks like 90m but I'm hoping someone knows for sure.

Those should be 90M tapes.  All his product codes seem to use the recording time as the numeric part of the code.   I have some of his 2h tapes in my collection and iirc those are  MasterDat 124s

Thanks. I think your right. 184minutes makes sense too.  ;D

BTW, they are made by FujiFilm in Japan.  I have 3 boxes of them and have used them for the past year without problems.
