I know it is possible to change modes (SP, LP, EP, etc) on the same tape, but I've run into a tape that seems to change at random times. The recording was made on what I assume is a consumer/prosumer grade recorder in 1984. These were recordings of concerts and I am fairly certain that the mode was not changed purposely this many times and certainly not during the middle of a performance piece. Could have been someone hitting a button randomly I guess.
Any ideas why this is happening? It's making capture difficult as there as you can see the quality difference every time it shifts. Probably half a dozen times during the same recorded concert.
Tried different machines....1980, 7600, 9900, and a cheapie JVC.
Curious.
