The 424-S Cassette has the same specifications of the Master 424 Studio Cassette, but without the gold collector reels. The TASCAM Portastudio opened the door to home recording over 40 years ago and was THE sound for thousands of albums over the decades, from Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska to DeWolff’s TASCAM Tapes. The TASCAM Portastudio's legions of fans and users range from Lady Gaga, Wu-Tang Clan and Beck to Bootsy Collins, Beastie Boys, and the Mars Volta. With vintage TASCAM Portastudios selling at a premium price on the used market, TASCAM is proud to provide the gold standard for the cassette medium. Review: There are some negative reviews about these cassettes, and while I respect those opinions, I have not had that kind of experience. I bought a couple of these and compared against some other, similar spec’d cassettes, using a Tascam Porta07 and a Yamaha MT4x. To my ears, they sound very good, no problems with hiss or other extraneous noises. Good quality. Review: Only new type 2 tape available If you don’t want tapes that are made 20 plus years. Adjust you bias they play ok. ## Features - TASCAM exclusive design and packaging with a nod to one of our most loved Portastudios - Highest-quality mastering cassette on the market - Coercivity 540 Oe - Retentivity 1700 Gauss - Made in U.S.A. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Net Quantity | 1 Count | | Manufacturer | Tascam | | UPC | 043774035786 | | Package Dimensions | 10.9 x 7.1 x 1.4 cm; 58 g | | Item model number | 424S | | Item Weight | 58 g | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Tascam - **Colour:** black - **Item Weight:** 0.06 Kilograms - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 60 Minutes - **Recording Capacity:** 60 Minutes ## Images ![424-S C-60 High Bias Type II Studio Cassette (424S) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/618Hy5wGDzL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: can this be used on a conventional cassette player?** A: Yes. **Q: is there really only one cassette?** A: Yes! 1 hi bias cassette my husband needed it for recording on a 4 track machine and it does the job. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***L on 30 September 2024* There are some negative reviews about these cassettes, and while I respect those opinions, I have not had that kind of experience.
