In the early 90's I was recording musicians in New York's East Village, on the ant-folk scene. I used the classic Nagra 1/2 track portable open reel commonly used for film production, and rented mics from Schoeps. I recorded in Blumlein stereo, monitoring live on Quad ESL63's with the Cosby mods (if anyone remembers those) in the next room to control the balance/mix.
I haven't heard these tapes since recorded, and would love to get DSD or high res PCM transfers. At least one of the artists went onto some notoriety.
Does anyone with a 1/2 track recorder feel like taking on this project to be able to hear actual masters on their rig?
I'm based in NYC and South Florida in case anyone is local, but I'd be okay with shipping the tapes. There are probably about 10, 7" reels at 15ips, I believe.
Any ideas or leads appreciated.
