MAKE a drum machine out of a tape recorder!?

stoopid......o god yes! here's more gumph about this thing!....How to make a drum machine with a tape loop and vintage reel to reel tape recorders. This How-To video shows you how to create a tape loop that runs between two vintage tape recorders, turning them into a silly drum machine. It uses one capstan drive and one rim drive tape recorder to manage an endless loop of tape, that you can make yourself! Although this loop runs at 1-7/8 inches per second, the video gives you an equation that lets you calculate a tape loop for any speed and of any duration.
