More On Backing Up Data With A Digital Audio Card

inSync‘s readers are really coming through with information for our friend Dr. Steve K. You may recall, Steve wanted to use his Event Gina card with an audio DAT recorder to back up his computer files.

“Dr. Steve K was questioning the possibility of backing up to a DAT machine. I am unaware of such a product but would like to mention the “Backer32 PCtape backup system” 1-888-9-BACKER (9-5pm pst). I have not used it, but it claims to back up 4GB to a standard VCR. There’s an internal unit for $69 and an external parallel for $89. No mention of Mac compatibility, but seems to work with Windows 3.1 or later.”

“The Cubase VST 3.5 info mentions a ‘Audio File Streamer’, meant to backup/store all those wav-files on DAT-tape by using digital I/O of soundcards. I don’t know if these files are compressed before streaming them out (I haven’t used VST 3.5 myself yet), but this feature might exactly be what Dr. Steve K was looking for.”

Peter V. in the Netherlands

“While it may be true that the Gina Card can not back-up data to a DAT, there is a hard disk recording package that does accomplish data back-up. I am referring to Creamware’s Triple DAT (no I am not receiving anything for this plug).”

Offer applies only to single-receipt qualifying purchases. Select manufacturers may require that only the manufacturer’s products qualify towards the minimum purchase amount needed to be eligible for promotional financing. Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%. Min Interest Charge is $2. Existing cardholders: See your credit card agreement terms. Subject to credit approval.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
