A Brief History of Reel-to-Reel Tapes

The reel-to-reel recording format saw significant development during the 1940s and 1950s, largely due to its use in military radio communications during WWII.

Jack Mullin, a US Army member, investigated German radio technology and brought two Magnetophon tape recorders to the US in the 1940s. He aimed to convince Hollywood studios to use magnetic tapes for soundtracks. Mullin’s work caught the attention of singer and actor Bing Crosby, who saw the potential of reel-to-reel to pre-record his radio shows, leading to its use in television.

Crosby’s endorsement elevated the reel-to-reel format, sparking a revolution in audio and video entertainment. This led to the development of compact cassettes by Philips in 1962 and paved the way for early videotape recorders.
