Half Inch 8-track reel-to-reel transfers to WAV files.
Creative Audio Works audio tape transfer service can transfer ½” analog eight-track reel-to-reel tape with or without DBX noise reduction to hi-resolution (96k/24bit) digital audio files. We use a custom head arrangement crafted by John French of JRF Magnetics. In this setup, the erase and record heads are replaced with rollers to reduce drag and pitch fluctuations (wow and flutter). Available for 1/2 inch Tascam 80-8, 38-8, 48-8, 58-8, and Otari 8 track formats
I’m interested in downloading 1 inch 8 track to digital file can you have me with that
Hi Silas, At this time we only handle ½” eight track transfers. Thank you.
Hi, I’ve got about a dozen 8-trk reels (recorded on a Tascam 38) that I would like converted to digital. Ideally, I’d like 8 individual waves for each reel so I could remix and edit them. What would this cost per reel?
Hi Chris, We have a graduated pricing schedule.
Aso of July 2002 the price is as follows.
1-3 $75.00 ea. 4-6 $65.00 ea.
7-10 $55.00 ea. 11-15 $45.00 ea.
Thank you.
I have a 1/2″ eight track reel that was recorded on a Tascam 80-8 in January of 1985. I don’t see that recorder listed. Will the 38-8 be used for a transfer to WAV?
Hi Ken, all Tascam 1/2″eight-tracks are compatible with each other. Yes, a 38-8 will be used for the transfer.
It’s now November ’22. Have the prices changed?
1-3 $75.00 ea. 4-6 $65.00 ea.
7-10 $55.00 ea. 11-15 $45.00 ea.
Hi Jay, there have been no changes to the tape pricing. They should remain the same for another year. feel free to contact me through the contact page. https://creativeaudioworks.com/contact/
