Processing Information
Despite the discrepancies in titles between many of the audio cassette tapes and reel-to-reels, many cassette tapes contain audio transferred the reel-to-reels. Titles on cassette tapes were inexplicably named differently than the titles of the reels they came from in a 1990s transfer project.
