DAT

DIGITAL AUDIO TAPE
In 1986 Sony launched this digital tape as a replacement for the compact cassette. Between licensing and copyright laws over digital copy and the falling U.S. dollar the format stayed out of the reach of the domestic audio fan and it had a very successful life in professional recording studios.

My personal collection of DAT tapes, just four!

Looks like a Mini DV tape!

I was in a band in the mid 90s and we did two full studio sessions in 1995.
Here you can see the inlay cards from the masters!
