I’m really glad you explained this to me because there are kind of two conversations we need to have. This is also so cool!
I’m going to do the best I can to help you record all of this, so I’m going to focus on capturing them exactly as they are on the tape because that is going to give you the best chance of success.
I have several friends in the preservation space. I think the best move is to get the best, clean recordings we can get and then kick them their way. Obviously they might be interested in the original media, but it’s good to have both and I’m not entirely sure you want to part with them! I’m going to tell them about this situation and see who perks up, I have a feeling there are one or two of them who would be interested in helping you out as a kindness and because they want to explore these lol. But of course I can’t promise anything and if you are not interested in sharing the recordings I know these folks would still be so happy to help you preserve them for yourself and would give good advice.
Do you have an email or something I can reach you at? Happy to give you mine as well, ifthat’s preferred. I have a secondary email I use as a screener for my primary so I’m not worried about some rando causing me problems
Whoah that is amazing.
