Journey cassette

I just wanted to give an update on these....

Apparently the loop tapes that I purchased from TDK are NOT all exactly 6 min long. Some of them are a few seconds over and some are not quite 6 minutes. I am working on this and will know more soon.

If you get a chance to sell these PM me I whould be interested. I want to have a backup and not have my original one somehow get destroyed thanks for the update!
 
Ok everyone here is the scoop... The version from MAME is correct.

I have been a radio DJ all my life and have mixed and remixed tons and tons of stuff over the years - so this didnt take too long.

First I recorded the track into my computer from the tape... SOUNDED HORRIBLE!!!

The total length of the tape is 3 minutes... then there is a 2 1/2 second pause and the track starts again. The track itself has two major edits (as far as time) They are right in the beginning of the track (16 counts of instrumental is cut out) and then following the first chorus there is another 16 counts cut out.

Office Max sells 6 minute endless loop tapes... I simply doubled the edited track and made it 6 minutes (all digital) and now all I have to do is record it onto the new endless loop tape and put on the label. Done deal.

The first picture is the original tape - the second is some of my replacement labels.

The track is NOT live...

Excuse the rough cell phone pics - the reproduction decal for the tape is pretty much perfect... I intentionally left the yellowish contrast (I like to keep that vintage look)
Any chance you have a Spare copy of loop tape with recording i can buy from you?;)

Missing tape in #156 cocktail.
