The Original Ampex 456 Reel-to-Reel Mastertapes
These tapes are stored for over 30 over years in an archive, maybe just because
of the uncommon 4-track ½ inch at 7 ½ IPS and DBX format.

The original 4-track reel-to-reel tapes are found by your webmaster and
transferred to digital on his request. These tapes are stored for over 30
over years in an archive, maybe because of the not common format.
Details of these two AMPEX 456 tapes are: 4-track ½ inch at 7 ½ IPS and
DBX. These tapes are transfered to digital at George Blood L.P. using
24bit/96khz technology and a Studer A80MKII reel-to-reel recorder with a
Prism ADA8 convertor.
George Blood is a leading provider of archival audio and moving image
services, digitizing obsolete and deteriorating audio, video, and film
media.
The above two Ambassador audio demo tracks might have your interest.
The first track is your webmasters rendering of the tapes and the 2nd one
by Abbey Road Studios Remastering who happen to the job for FHR. On
some occasion FHR was contacted to check for a possible release and
after clearing the rights they released this recording on their label.
