## Long description

Recording The Masters SM900 is a 1/4" open reel analog magnetic tape supplied on a 2500 ft reel. Designed for multitrack and stereo recording, this professional-format tape medium is intended for studio tracking, analog mastering, and archival preservation. The tape is formulated to deliver the characteristic warmth and saturation of analog recording while providing reliable transport and consistent performance on compatible reel-to-reel machines.
Advantages
The tape offers stable bias response and low noise suitable for critical studio use, combined with a long 2500 ft reel that reduces reel changes during long sessions. Its 1/4" width supports both stereo and multitrack workflows on machines configured for this format. The build quality and magnetic formulation are aimed at preserving source dynamics and providing predictable equalization behaviour for mastering and transfer processes.
Suitable for
 Studio multitrack recording and overdubs
 Stereo mixdown and mastering on reel-to-reel machines
 Archival transfers from digital or analog sources to magnetic tape
 Analog-styled recording for music production and post-production
Key specifications
 Tape width: 1/4 inch (6.35 mm)
 Reel length: 2500 ft
 Format: Open reel analog magnetic tape
 Intended use: Multitrack and stereo recording, mastering, archiving
 Compatibility: Standard reel-to-reel machines accepting 1/4" tape
How to use
Load the 2500 ft reel onto a compatible reel-to-reel transport following the machine manufacturer’s instructions for reel placement, tape threading, and tensioning. Select the appropriate bias and equalization settings on your recorder for the tape type and recording format you intend to use. Monitor levels conservatively to allow headroom for analog saturation, and run periodic test recordings to confirm levels, frequency response, and bias alignment before committing critical takes or final mixes.
Usage recommendations
Store reels in a cool, dry environment away from strong magnetic fields and direct sunlight. Allow tape to acclimate to room temperature before use. Periodically inspect and clean machine heads and capstans to maintain optimal performance. For long-term archiving, consider making parallel digital transfers to ensure preservation and easier access.
