Tape hiss (clicky)

Cassette tape sounds

Sound output from playback of an old blank/empty type 1 audio tape that has quite consistent noise with some small clicks and pops. The volume hasn't been adjusted, so this is true to the amount of noise present in a tape recording.

This is exactly what I was looking for! I don't have a tape player anymore, so this really helped out a lot! Thanks for sharing -jB
