For those of you interested in recording to cassette, here’s a good overview of the different types:

• Ferric oxide (type I)
• Chromium oxide (type II)
• Metal (type IV)

There is a type III, but it was rarely in use.

This video gives a good summary of how each type sounds. Most people agree that metal (type IV) sounds the best.
