Lance, I routinely use a 4-channel 1/4-inch tape deck to determine the true track format (usually faster and easier than using the "developing" viewer). Then I select the proper head assembly or tape machine for the final reproduction of the tape. What the others said is true. For transfers, I find that I need 1/4-track, 2-track, DIN stereo, and full-track to optimize the process. If you're auditioning, a 4-channel 1/4-inch machine is VERY useful. (thanks to Parker Dinkens for the tip, by the way) Cheers, Richard At 08:41 AM 6/12/2003 -0400, you wrote: >Can anyone tell me if a 1/4" 2 track reel-to-reel can play on a 4 track >reel-to-reel tape deck?
