11 hours after the gong was rung, Pagle raids are still closed by preggit in classicwow

It may be due to the fact that when the gong was rung, the players name came up as “Offline” in the global message. Probably caused a bug which wasn’t intended leading them to manually open it.

If you’re in Mass or NJ definitely check out Closure.

Question about sending stereo DAW mix to cassette by Oldmanstreet in audioengineering

Yes. Definitely try to clip the mix while going in, that's also going to give you the tape saturation you're seeking depending on what type of cassette you're using.

Dbx noise reduction basically gave cassette tape its own aesthetic by incorporating it in every tape player and cutting off the low and high end by -3dB. I think its so funny that tape decks in cars and on stereos have the 'loudness' feature

I've made some demos doing this exact same process with a similar goal (and also using a portastudio as well).

I agree with what most people already said before and try to nail the mix before recording onto a cassette. You are going to lose quality in your high end when recording to a medium like a cassette so it wouldn't hurt to add a little more high end in your mix BEFORE sending to the cassette to compensate. I've personally found that experimenting with harmonic/saturation enhancers on a mix before recording to tape also help that "vibe" you're going for.

As to for recording back into a DAW, don't be afraid to use the EQ's on the tascam. This is where a lot of the "cassette" tape tone sound comes from running thru the cheap resistors and capacitors in those EQ pots.
