>Would the result have been similar for ... Sony's El-Cassette for audio?
Just so it shows up in an archive search, it's Elcaset ...
I always thought of those Quick-draw McGraw cartoons of El-kabong when I
heard Elcaset!
Anyway, since I don't believe that the data track was ever implemented in a
commercial player, a four-channel 1/4-inch analog player should play the
Elcaset tapes just fine. While I haven't trasnferred an Elcaset yet, I have
transferred some of the old RCA cartridges. The difference is:
RCA Elcaset
L---> L--->
<---R R---> Data resides between 2 Rs
R---> <---R
<---L <---L
HOWEVER, this ease of access is not necessarily true of digital formats.
