Hello, I posted this on the Studer list as well, but figure the more the better. I need to transfer several reels of sticky AGFA PEM 469 1" tape that after baking still leaves a ton of shed on the heads when I playback. I baked at 130 deg Fahrenheit, for 8 hours. Reading around, I saw that there is a chance this can not be baked away, and that baking might actually be bad for the tape?!? Could it be that I didn't bake long enough? Do any of you know how I can make these reels playable without destroying them?
Thanks for any help you can provide, Greg Norman Electrical Audio Recording 773.539.2555 www.electrical.com
