The MRL is recorded as if it were one giant track (hmmm...what would

there is no issue with cross-talk as someone had asked.


Errrr..... doesn't that result in 'fringing' issues ? Guard band etc.... (
or absence of in this case ) . Calibration won't be accurate when
individual tracks are recorded / reproduced.


Right. This is why you cannot use the 50 Hz band for low-frequency playback
EQ. For 1 KHz and up, the ladder is fine, though.

All of the MRL tapes are done this way, and as a result you do have to handle
the low frequency EQ differently than you did with the old Ampex alignment
tapes. But this guy is still fighting with the 1 KHz level, let alone the
EQ settings.
