. You're right that there is a 2" multitrack tape box labeled "3121 Radio" but it must be something different (perhaps jingles, station IDs?). A 10.5” reel (that holds 2500 ft of tape) has a total playing time of 16.5 minutes at 30ips (or 33 mins at 15ips) while the article states the episode is 2.5 hours long. Besides, taping a radio show does not require more than 2 channels. If they taped the 2.5 hours in one go then it probably went directly to a hard drive. .

From the Vanity Fair article: "and on Friday [May 1st] SiriusXM is launching a monthlong Prince channel in the model of its existing artist-devoted stations ". Welcome to "the org", laytonian… come bathe with me. |
