Hi

I am having a problem with my revox B77 while recording. If I playback a pre recorded tape, it sound clean and noise free. If I make a new recording and play it back, at the beginning both sides sound clean and noise free. After about 30 mins, one side starts to have some noise(frying sound) and it gets worse. The other side remains noise free. What could be the cause. Please assist.

Thanks

Carlos

No expert, but have you tried demagnetizing the heads?

I recall this being done to my late fathers A700 at a Revox service clinic. This could be an easy, inexpensive fix.

Best of luck
