A 14-inch reel of 2-inch quad videotape compared with a modern-day MiniDV videocassette. Both media store one hour of color video. The first commercial professional broadcast quality videotape machines capable of replacing kinescopes were the two-inch quadruplex videotape (Quad) machines introduced by Ampex on April 14, 1956, at the National Association of Broadcasters convention in Chicago.
For all types of tape, MOL reaches a maximum in the 125–800 Hz area, while dropping off below 125 Hz and above 800 Hz. [13] The maximum output of Type I tape at 40 Hz is 3–5 dB lower than MOL 400, [14] while in Type IV tapes it is 6–7 dB lower. [15]
The Compact Cassette, also commonly called a cassette tape, [2] audio cassette, or simply tape or cassette, is an analog magnetic tape recording format for audio recording and playback. Invented by Lou Ottens and his team at the Dutch company Philips , the Compact Cassette was released in August 1963.
The recording medium is a Mylar [36] magnetic tape, 12.7 mm (1 ⁄ 2 inch) wide, coated with metal oxide, and wound on two spools. The tape speed for "Standard Play" mode (see below) is 3.335 cm/s (1.313 ips) for NTSC, 2.339 cm/s (0.921 ips) for PAL—or just over 2.0 and 1.4 metres (6 ft 6.7 in and 4 ft 7.2 in) per minute respectively. The ...
Tapai uli is a roasted block of bland-tasted ketan or pulut (glutinous rice) served with sweet tapai ketan or tapai pulut. The peuyeum goreng or tapai goreng , or known in Javanese as rondho royal is another example of Indonesian gorengan (assorted fritters), which is deep fried battered cassava tapai .
The first commonly available increase in tape length resulted from a reduction in backing thickness from 1.5 to 1.0 mil (38 to 25 μm) resulting in a total thickness reduction from 42 to 35 μm (1.7 to 1.4 mils), which allowed 3,600 ft (1,100 m), 1,800 ft (550 m), and 900 ft (270 m) tapes to fit on ten-and-a-half-, seven-, and five-inch reels respectively.
For common tape measurements, the tape used is a steel tape with coefficient of thermal expansion C equal to 0.000,011,6 units per unit length per degree Celsius change. This means that the tape changes length by 1.16 mm per 10 m tape per 10 °C change from the standard temperature of the tape.
Magnetic tape was first used to record computer data in 1951 on the UNIVAC I. [8] The UNISERVO drive recording medium was a thin metal strip of 0.5-inch (12.7 mm) wide nickel-plated phosphor bronze. Recording density was 128 characters per inch (198 micrometres per character) on eight tracks at a linear speed of 100 in/s (2.54 m/s), yielding a ...
