High-Bias or Type-II tapes offer a step up in sound quality.
For short lengths check the Cobalt tape category. For BASF chrome we have only 120 minute tape stock.
High-bias tapes are made with several different formulations of metals. The first formulation was the classic chromium dioxide (chrome) from BASF. TDK offered a cobalt tape known as SA (Super Avilyn) with a warmer sound. BASF then started mixing cobalt into their chrome tapes. Maxell had the XL tapes made with "black magnetite".
To use high-bias tapes you either need a bias switch on your tape recorder, or you must use chrome-notch cassette shells if you do not have a bias selector.
Tapes longer than 100 minutes have a very thin base and are easily damaged, so they are intended only for special purposes and well-maintained machines. We have a small amount of C-110 and C-120 Emtec tape remaining.
When calculating your tape length, add 7 to 10 seconds at each end, plus up to 2% in case your machines are off speed. If your program is exactly 30 minutes per side, you could ask us for tapes of 31:00 per side (or C-62s).
We also offer audio cassette duplication. Consult our online price calculator.
Blank Cassette Tapes Custom-Loaded With Chrome High-Bias Tape
CHROMETAPE-CV-71

The length is the total length of both sides. 20 minutes means 10 minutes per side. Order custom-made blank CHROME audio cassettes in any length from 1 minute to 110 minutes. These tapes are tabs in or tabs out for recording at home or with professional recording machines. To record on home cassette decks with tabs out shells you can put scotch tape over the record tabs, or disable the sensor inside the cassette deck. It's easy! These tapes are custom made for your order - most orders are completed and shipped within 5 business days or longer. Cases, labels, and J-Cards are sold separately. This item qualifies for BONUS POINTS! Every tape you order earns a bonus point that can be redeemed for discounts on future orders. To redeem the point convert them to a gift certificate. Please note: we have limited stock of both chrome tape and chrome notch shells, with an inventory of less than 500 units per shell. This is vintage stock, meaning that some shells may be lightly scratched or grungy. As they are custom-loaded with tape, there are no returns of refunds for cosmetic issues such as scratches. In the event that we oversell on shells you will be asked to switch shell color or given the opportunity for a refund.  |
