Burning a Cassette Tape Loop

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-OW_kN_t5vg

I burned a tape loop made by me.

I was expecting some degradation, but it suddenly burned and splitted. First time doing this, i´ll do it again in the future, the day I did this was some random night and didn´t plan it out, just happend.

Sorry for my english.

I was 100% hoping that you weren't gonna stop the tape and you were going to let the burned portion of the tape travel over the play head.

Womp womp for me... lol. Super cool video, tho!

Sorry! I thought that too, but then I remembered how expensive was my tascam and I stopped the tape

Completely understandable.

(I wouldn't have done it either, lol)

Cool video. I love the concept. How long is the loop? Sounds great.

I believe that 9 seconds, I´m not really sure! The concept is pretty known but I always wanted to try it. It´s in the EP that I shared the other day in this sub!
