If you appreciated #SilkDust, the game that I recently released as an open source project, you may also appreciate the original music I wrote for it. Here is a video of a #RevoxB77 reel to reel tape recorder playing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nI_uF-8gJH4 #TextAdventure #music #mastoart #reel2reel #opensource #noai #indie

I got two metal champagne NAB adapters for the #RevoxB77. With the blue reels they look amazing. They keep the reels more firmly in place than the adapters I #3Dprinted. #AnalogAudio

Am Sonntag habe ich eine private Sammlung mit Bänder gekauft. Sie sind bespielt mit Musik aus dem 70er und 80er Jahren. Alle Titel sind in einen Notizbuch dokumentiert. #Revox #RevoxTape #RevoxSammlung #RevoxHiFi #RevoxB710 #revoxb77

Mache gerade mal wieder etwas unmodernes analoges. Aufnahmen auf ein Magnetband. #analog #tape #nowplaying #nowspinning #vinyl #vinylrecords #AliceInChains #Grunge #Rock #revoxb77

Auch ein schöner Beitrag vom NDR.

Auf Youtube gibt es einige Videos Anleitungen für Reparaturen. Hier ein Beispiel für eine Revision für Anfänger:

Die Revox B77 MK II: Eine Legende der Bandmaschinen
In der Welt der Audiotechnik gibt es einige Geräte, die sich durch ihre herausragende Qualität und Langlebigkeit auszeichnen. Eine dieser Legenden ist die Revox B77 MK II, eine Bandmaschine, die nicht nur bei Audiophilen, sondern auch bei Musikproduzenten und Toningenieuren einen besonderen Platz einnimmt.

I created a video with the Revox B77 playing my Silk Dust soundtrack. I hope you'll like it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nI_uF-8gJH4. #music #retrocomputing #AnalogAudio #RevoxB77 #IndieMusic #composer #VintageAudio #MagneticRecording #tape #reel2reel #SilkDust #TextAdventure #MastoArt

Holy cow! I received some #SM900 magnetic #tape from #RTM. I previously used the #LPR90 that is similar (but thinner). The SM900 can yield a higher signal, so as a result, the noise is kept quite low during playback. I tried it with a new album I'm preparing in this moment and with 2-track at 15 ips, the results are astounding, even without noise reduction 😎 #AnalogAudio #RevoxB77

I printed and laminated a label for the #RevoxB77 remote control. I like the result 😍 I still have to wire the varispeed circuit. It should not be too difficult, but I need a 4-pin DIN connector that I will order next week. The rest works perfectly, I've been using it for the last few days. #3Dprint #AnalogAudio #DIY

It’s a remote controller for the #RevoxB77 😍 The circuit is basically only a set of buttons. However it was not trivial to build a connector for the #recorder originally an unobtanium Hirschmann WIST-9. I #3Dprinted a support, then put pins taken from DIN connectors. It seems to work reliably, time will tell. I still need to wire the speed control circuit, but now I can control the recorder from my chair #Analogaudio

I you couldn't download the two .flac files, try copy/pasting them in your browser. The provider of my website does not adopt https but only http. #test #AnalogAudio #RevoxB77 #noise #dbx #dbx150

Dear all, if you have a few minutes, I would love to have your feedback on the A/B #test on the previous toot (varenna_1 vs varenna_2). I've read about the "pumping" noise artifact of the dbx, and I'd like to know if you are able to listen it in the example. #AnalogAudio #RevoxB77 #dbx #dbx150x #noise

Let's try another A/B test, using Varenna Suite, this time:

http://davbucci.chez-alice.fr/varie/revoxb77/varenna_2.flac

Which one do you think is the original and which one has been recorded through the #RevoxB77 at 15ips + #dbx150x #noise reduction? #AnalogAudio

If you want to help me, here are two tracks (uncompressed, so 66MB each): http://davbucci.chez-alice.fr/varie/revoxb77/Catacombs_1.wav and http://davbucci.chez-alice.fr/varie/revoxb77/Catacombs_2.wav In your opinion, which one is the original version and which one has been recorded through the #RevoxB77+#dbx noise reduction? If the links do not work, try copy/pasting them in your browser. #ComparativeTest #AnalogAudio #audio

I received the #dbx150x type I #noise reduction system. I had to import it from USA as I couldn’t find one in Europe at a decent price. I tried recording some tracks with it on the #RevoxB77 and I couldn’t distinguish them from the originals. It is clearly the best analog audio quality I have ever listened to 😍 I didn’t notice any “pumping” artefact some people complain about dealing with #dbx. It’s incredible. #AnalogAudio

I used quite regularly the #RevoxB77 reel to reel recorder lately. I love it and the sound quality is just amazing. However, using headphones, you can hear a faint tape hiss. I bought a dbx-150x noise reduction system. The combination should be a real bliss. #AnalogAudio

I received two days ago the #RevoxB77 heads back from Photovox Technology. They did an amazing work relapping them and are like new 😳😍🤩 I installed them back on the #ReelToReel recorder, aligned them and after a full recalibration the sound is amazing 🤩 #AnalogAudio #Repair

I sent yesterday the heads to a relapping service. I hope they will be able to recondition them. While I am waiting, I updated the blog post about the restoration and #repair of the #RevoxB77 with some pictures of the painting: http://davbucci.chez-alice.fr/index.php?argument=varie/revoxb77/revoxb77.inc&language=English

I finished painting the box of the #RevoxB77 and the result is 😍😍😍 I must find a solution for the broken corner of the plastic front panel though. This evening I have to remove the heads to send them to a relapping service. I hope I will be able to align them again 😰 (I have a calibration tape for 15ips). #repair #AnalogAudio
