However, the easiest way is to record an 'A440' tone and check it against a 20 dollar guitar tuner. Or in the computer with some 'scope shareware. Right - but my question was about how you know that the recorder that you make your A-440 test tape on is running at the correct speed? This is why you need a standard test tape, one that was made on a recorder that someone knows is running at the correct speed. Similar to the reason why you need a standard alignment tape for setting up the heads and electronics - it has to be made on a machine that you know is properly calibrated. But, you're right, if I had the confidence and knowledge, I'd have already dug around inside a bit further - but I do not. Sending it out (found a good guy locally after two weeks) is the way to go. That sounds like a smart move. That's the first time I've been accused of that! Lol. Of course you can learn by doing, but chances are you'll mess up some things for a while. Not a good idea to learn on something that you really want to work again. Yes - and I want this guy working properly. However, I sure learned a few things during this little exchange. This NG is one of my favorites. Best regards, Mike T. -- I'm really Mike Rivers ) However, until the spam goes away or Hell freezes over, lots of IP addresses are blocked from this system.
