A B.B. King recording brings PSI scientists and tape preservation experts together to rethink magnetic tape degradation
PSI researchers have shown that several apparently different forms of magnetic tape degradation share the same underlying chemical origin but fail for different microscopic reasons – resolving a preservation puzzle first raised by an unplayable B.B. King recording from the Claude Nobs Collection of the Montreux Jazz Festival.
