I want to archive 1/4 inch half track stereo material

the TEAC 3340S play the 1/4 inch half track stereo tapes
if I sum tracks 1 and 2, and sum tracks 3 and 4, then out
to stereo? Is there a 1/4 inch half track stereo head made
that fits the TEAC 3340S?


Good advice, everyone.

Replies to my post said, basically, that trying to use the TEAC
3340S is not worth it.

I will use the Studer A807, still available at the public radio
station where I recorded these performances 16 years ago.
I looked the machine over last night. I don't think those heads
have been cleaned in 16 years!

I was hoping to be lazy and do this at home. And to use my
TEAC 3340S that is just sitting there. I am fond of it. It is my
very own reel to reel. It looks good. It takes up space.
