Hi folks:

Anyone have recommended flux loop settings for a Studer 807 recorder at
30ips? (American EQ, 17.8us.)

I have some suggested settings for an Ampex 440C-8 from the 1970s; they
recommended setting 10kHz to be 3.5dB hotter than 500 Hz when measured via
flux loop. That seems high, and I suspect it incorporates some fudge
factors. The fudge factors for the Studer would presumably be different,
hence my query.

Peace,
Paul

I think the fudge factor is going to be entirely due to the gap width
of the head, right?

Probably, but it seemed a little high for the Ampex 440C, so perhaps there
are others as well. Do you have the correction formula for the gap width
fudge?
