...Can you still get
tape for them?


Most of the film production mixers I know stopped using their Nagras because
they felt that tape of sufficient quality was no longer being manufactured.


Sadly this is the case. The Nagra really does require tape with very
accurate slitting, and the currently-available Quantegy tape, even the 408
and 480 types, just don't have good enough slitting.

Look for this to be changing some time in the next six months, though.
I think we're going to be seeing some interesting tape products hitting
the market soon, some of which have been in development for quite a while.
