Hello, All - I've run up against an interesting scenario (for us, anyway) and I'm asking for some feedback from the collective wisdom of this group. We've been doing a lot of our own digitization, but we've now run across a reel to reel tape that was recorded at 15/16 speed. It doesn't appear as if any of our reel to reel recorder/players offer that as an option, so, obviously, we'll need to send it out. How common was this recording speed and are there any general assumptions I might be able to make about the circumstances of the recording (i.e., Were there consumer-grade recorders available with this speed option? Years it might have been a popular option?) Thanks in advance -- Stephanie George Archivist Center for Oral and Public History California State University, Fullerton (657) 278-3693 [log in to unmask]
