Bias level for each type was set equal to the optimal bias of the relevant IEC reference tape, and sometimes changed when the IEC changed the reference tapes, though the BASF datasheet for the Y348M tape, approved as the IEC Type I reference in 1994, says that its optimal bias is exactly 0.0 dB from the previous reference (BASF R723DG).
The 3480 tape format is a magnetic tape data storage format developed by IBM. The tape is one-half inch (13 mm) wide and is packaged in a 4 in × 5 in × 1 in (102 mm × 127 mm × 25 mm) cartridge. The tape is one-half inch (13 mm) wide and is packaged in a 4 in × 5 in × 1 in (102 mm × 127 mm × 25 mm) cartridge.
Tapes affected by sticky-shed are those that were made by Ampex/Quantegy such as 406/407, 456/457, 499, and consumer/audiophile grade back coated tapes such as Grand Master and 20-20+, [citation needed] as well as those made by Scotch/3M including professional tapes such as 206/207, 226/227, 262 (though not all 262 is backcoated and therefore isn't affected), 808, and 986 as well as audiophile ...
[8] [9] The name was soon applied to the entire line of 3M tapes. Scotty McTape, a kilt-wearing cartoon boy, was the brand's mascot for two decades, first appearing in 1944. [10] The familiar tartan design, a take on the well-known Wallace tartan, was introduced in 1945. [10] The Scotch brand, Scotch Tape and Magic Tape are registered ...
This is used with audio tapes to control playback. A typical scenario has an audio recording on the "left" track and short bursts of 5327 Hz at key locations within the audio. The program then starts the tape motor, causing the audio to be routed through the television speaker, waiting for a 1 to appear on the I/O port.
Linear Tape-Open (LTO), also known as the LTO Ultrium format, [1] is a magnetic tape data storage technology used for backup, data archiving, and data transfer.It was originally developed in the late 1990s as an open standards alternative to the proprietary magnetic tape formats available at the time.
[36] [37] A year later 3M instead issued free samples of it as a sticky note directly to consumers in Boise, Idaho, with 95% of those who tried them indicating they would buy the product. [36] The product was sold as " Post-Its " in 1979 when the rollout introduction began, [ 38 ] and was sold across the United States [ 38 ] from April 6, 1980 ...
9-track tape is a format for magnetic-tape data storage, introduced with the IBM System/360 in 1964. The 1 ⁄ 2 inch (12.7 mm) wide magnetic tape media and reels have the same size as the earlier IBM 7-track format it replaced, but the new format has eight data tracks and one parity track for a total of nine
