  • How much information can one reel hold?

  • Depends on reel size, length of tape and selected playback/recording speeed. The longest record time is 6 hours on a 10.5" reel with 3600' of tape with a speed of 3-3/4" ips

  • @patrickguice Actually Ampex had some tapes that were 4800 feet so thats is a longer recording time

  • @Suzsmokeyallan I am aware of that. But I mentioned 3600' as the most common on consumer decks that were purchased during that time. The 4800' was very thin tape and did not have as good tensile strength as the smaller footage tapes. Also studios had the capabilities of using 12" & 14" reels which gave even longer time. But these were not available on the consumer market. And they need they bigger reels to get longer recording times especially at 30 I.P.S.
