Re: Revox A77 doesn't erase
You're not very clear about what you've checked, but sounds like the Record head may be recording, but the Erase head is not.
If you take a tape with something recorded, and 'record' silence (i.e. no new signal being recorded) does this make any difference at all to the original signal? If so, how much?
Another possibility to check, where was the signal originally on the tape recorded? If the original signal is 1/2 track, but you're now using a 1/4 track format, then the original signal may not be being fully erased and may still be heard. You don't say what the relative levels are, merely that the original signal is still heard.
