Transfer 10.5-inch open reel audio tape, 3-inch NAB hub

Complete pricing below.

NAB Audio Tape Hub is a 3-inch diameter keyed center hole in large 10.5-inch open reel audio tapes used in professional and broadcast applications.  The 3-inch diameter NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) drive hole is used for large 10.5-inch diameter x ¼-inch audio tape reels as well as ½-inch and wider multitrack audio tapes that often rotate at fast speeds of 7-1/2, 15, or 30ips; NAB hubs are also used in large or heavy open reel video tapes.

Sometimes the tape has no metal or plastic reel and the tape is stored in a 'pancake' box.  It must be carefully loaded onto a Pancake split-reel to play the tape.


PRICES:
TRANSFER to mp3 file: $50 per tape.
USB FLASH DRIVE (Thumb drive) for file(s): $10 each (16Gb max).
DOWNLOAD and 30 day Cloud storage: $10 per order (25Gb max).
CD (audio CDs are becoming obsolete): $20 each (80 minutes max).
LONG TAPES (more than 80 minutes): add $12 per hour ($0.20 per minute).

mp3 is a very common and well supported file format; files on a USB flash drive will play in Windows and MAC computers and will plug & play in many modern TVs.  Other file formats available by request (wav, aaif, etc).
