We here at MetroSonic take pride in our knowledge of studio gear, recording techniques, and business management. Just like others, we have spent years learning and practicing all aspects of audio production; but no one has a handle on it more than MetroSonic Recording Studio’s owner and Chief Engineer Pete Mignola!

s like a modern day production wizard. Dealing with all aspects of production for 30 years, he has become the backbone of MetroSonic. It’s because of this Performer Magazine reached out and asked Pete to explain one of the most important aspects of an all analog recording session: tape speed!

In Pete’s article with Performer Magazine he hits every nail on the head when it comes to analog tape including: what tape speed is in IPS, tape format, the cost of tape, and much more.
