Getting delighted today to receive more of these DBX tapes. Something to zest me up after a hard days work.
Wow, that one with the 26th Grammy is awesome! Thanks for the video, but I see you're playing it with a Nak that has no dbx to decode. so, are you using an external decoder?
Hi Hugo, I don't have a decoder, just play straight through the cassette deck. By the way, please check your inbox I just sent you some notes.
Hmm, then it should sound very tiny and with lots of treble. A recording made with dbx played without decoding sounds pretty bad. But when you properly decode it, then the magic comes and it sounds gorgeous. You must try it, really Take a look if you can get a dbx 224x or a similar decoder. They are very common in the US and reasonably cheap. ok, I'll check.
Looking at the cassette itself, seems like a Maxell UD. It's weird that they used a type I cassette for a 'professional quality', high MOL' and all that. Why not use a type II?
