Tina Turner (one of my personal favorites) and many other artists were popular during the XDR era. I started at Capitol in 1981 and left in 1988. The signal-chain electronics we designed in my lab (which included HX-Pro) replaced the original electronics of the Gauss duplicators used world-wide by Capitol/EMI. Therefore, all cassettes released from the mid-eighties until Capitol stopped making them (a date I don't know) will use the XDR process.</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
