Hosa LBL-505 Scribble Strip Console Tape

I have used this product for many years to write on my mixers the names of who is using the channels. Easy to apply new scribble scrip for each gig. This is my second purchase of this product.

This tape is just fine for console use, but you can get tape that seems identical for close to half the cost. I got the Hosa and this one at the same time to compare:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004O7HIYQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1They seem identical to me with only difference being that the Hosa tape is just a hair wider. Like maybe 1 mm wider. But tape thickness, stickiness, write on ability, opacity all seem identical to that lesser priced artist tape.So it is only cost as to why I'm giving it reduced stars.Writing on it with Sharpie works great. Dries fast and no smearing once wait a few seconds for it to dry.As with any of these tapes that I've tried, ball point pen does not work well - but then really these aren't designed for that and all audio engineers I've know used sharpie. There are extra fine tip sharpies available if you need to be able to write finer on here.I would definitely buy this again if the price was the same as other lower priced options. But at its current price, I'll be buying that artist tape I linked next time.

It’s works as console tape should: It attaches firmly, leaves no residue & can be restuck to boards and other smooth clean surfaces as long as the initial surface was clean too (I hope you audio people are keeps your boards clean since dirty boards usually mean your channels go out faster). So, that’s all anyone looking a this sort of tape needs to know, honestly.Bottom Line:I would recommend this & will be buying this brand again and again.

The tape arrived quicker than expected. This is used in a small church so not everyone uses the same mic every service. We have a 32 channel board with ten matrixes. It can get very confusing. The tape surface make it quite easy to erase and write who or what is on what channel.

I use this product a lot in my home recording studio. It is great for instant labeling changes.

Great tape! Easy to peel and leaves no glue residue. Sharpie doesn't smear on the tape and dries almost immediately.

It does what I wanted it for.

Good product.
