SirenCon Cassette Recording!

Wed Jun 26, 2024 5:41 pm

I had the thought, Why not record audio on cassette?

Boom.
I used a portable GPX cassette recorder with a 90 minute cassette tape in it.

Note: this recording is trimmed due to the beginning being mostly me and my dad talking to each other.
Also some bits have a bit of music in between recordings, due to the cassette being a recorded over music
(*cough* Rush Grace under pressure *cough*)


Enjoy :D (the part where the P-50 failed is at 74:30)

That's amazing! In today's age of smartphones and 4K video cameras, it's great to see retro technology like cassette tapes still in use. I also like how you incorporated that Thunderbolt 1003 photo into the cover.

Bringing back ol' Siren Contest vibes for us dinosaurs! These were the type of recording we'd totally geek out over. :lol:

I enjoyed the bit at the end where you said "This is sponsored by-". I chuckled a bit when I heard that.
