Well, the ole' Beta machine has started to act up and before I dive into it with scope probe in hand I want to make sure it's not something simple and stupid like a dirty tape path. What I would like to know is what is the cleaning procedure for a beta machine? What kind of cleaning fluid and appli- cater should I use? QTips? Chamois? What about demagnetizing? Will a regular reel-to-reel type demagnetizer work or do I need to get one made for especially flying heads?
