I would not consider buying this unless you are using a machine in PAL.
The problem is that we do not know how much it has been used. As you use
it, there is a deterioration of the quality. The tape stretches a bit and
thus after about a hundred uses we would throw it out. This was due to
start and stop with boost plus the head hitting the tape in the guide. But
what we did was to cut one minute off the reel and use that every day. Then
save the other 5 minutes for use later. It was a way to extend the life of
a test tape. There are multiple test tapes. The vertical bars was used
to set the guide. We also had the Audio Alignment Tape to insure proper
record and playback optimization and frequency response. Then there was the
Alignment Tape that had all the signals to verify the signal system. These
two were the ones that were used the least.
