Cassettes are fun, the sound is different from what we're used to. The limitations makes the musician more creative. This is what I thought when I started recording a song on my old 4 channel porta studio again. After waiting for a new cassette tape to arrive. So my idea was to record an old school hip hop song on to tape, but then its limitation kept getting bigger & bigger. Until complete it was n't fun anymore. Ok lets start from the top: I made a beat in my sampler that I wanted to record to track one, vocals on track two and overdubs on three and last chorus on channel 4. The vocals vary alot so recording each verse/chorus on its dedicated channel is a good thing to do. Otherwise 1 channel get cluttered up with different recordings and you have to manually set the gain when playback to control the volumes. channel 1 Already when connecting the sampler to the porta the limitations were present. channels on the porta are in mono and output from the sampler is in stere
