Metaxas & Sins proudly presents Tape Transport Squelette – the world’s first reel-to-reel transport that does not use any kind of pinch rollers. The R2R-transport operates on the basis of dual capstan – and all moving parts have their own direct-driven motors!
When using Metaxas & Sins Squelette you will forget about pinch rollers and rubber – the tape transport uses only milled metal, and the handling of the tape has never been so gentle. Well, the company can be congratulated on the release of another High End product that allows you to take a different look at time-tested technologies.
