Good one! 4 track cassette is perfect format for a 3 piece band! Sub mix drums, guitar, bass and vox. No unnecessary tracks. I recorded a bunch of my 3 piece band back in the 80s & 90s, so is great to see this method live on!
Tracking on 4-track used to be my dream. Might have to pick one up now. Thanks for the inspo!

Would totally recommend!
me and my mates found loads of cassettes and old recording equipment in some backroom of our school, and have been recording loads of tapes since, cool to see someone do it properly lol

Not gonna lie, this was really cool to see. Something about jamming with your friends with the bare minimum and making something awesome.

We just used the onboard Marantz pres. For layback to digital we used a behringer UMC 1820 :)
I was really interested even would like to know what the tape machine was as I’ve never seen one before but the slurping is a hard no a dislike and hiding your Chanel forever
