damn, it sounds awfull

if u record a tape .. how do u have your EQs.. or big DJs..
i had it like this

im wondered how Mind-X does have them
his tapes sounds allways sooo nice
i tried this today

| - hi

sounds better on a tape.. but still not mind-x quality :-)

ah and also another question !! ->

the tapes of mind-x are on different color allways.. and its wrote
DAT (Digital Audio Tape) on it

Well of cours his tapes will sound good.
Hw is using a DAT tape.
Which is digital and almost every way you set the EQ will sound good.
DAT's are usually very expensive, there are some by Sony and Denon, but the best one to my opinion is by Tascam.
Anyway visit This site for more info.

The best setting to have your EQ’s at is 12 – 12 – 12 and the gain set so that it bounces on 0dB! The only time you should need to adjust the EQ’s are when you’re mixing the two records together or doing a trick or effect.

You can't have a DAT tape without a DAT tape-recorder! it's like trying to put a CD on a turntable and hoping it will work. They are two completely different things. If you want to do this, you will have to get a DAT recorder, and believe me they are not cheap. You would probably be better off hooking your mixer up to your PC and recording it with SoundForge or something. It's not better or worse quality than DAT; both are digital.

Correction:
CD = 44.1 khz
max for DAT = 48 khz

So you can get better quality out of DAT
