This can’t be reel!
There are only two companies left in the tape selling business. You would have to be rich and/or crazy to jump into reel-to-reel at this point.
That was the first thing that came into my mind, but I feared getting banned from the forum for posting something like this. Lol
Sonik has been relegated to The Reel Househusbands of QQ.
It might be OK if you run it through a bin of iron filings.
Well that has scotched the rumours
Do you see what you have done with your little statement, Midi? This thread has gone totally off the reels.
If you were to get one of those big studio quality 2 incher Ampex machines you would need like a 10" reel of duct tape.
Acoustic Sounds has reel to reel, for a price:

Well every self respecting audiophool audiophile knows instinctively that the more money you spend, the better the sound.
So you can get a refurbished Mara deck for a mere $1950 under the price of a brand new, built in 2025 Revox B77.
If any of those prices were on my head I wouldn't be around anymore!

In the mean time, Steven Wilson has figured out how to achieve the "sound" of those analog tape machines using the digital domain.
As far as I can tell, there should be no technical reason why the euphonic sound of tape saturation can’t be reproduced digital. I would argue the same for tube saturation. If I still owned a turntable I would A/B the sound of a needle drop with the same vinyl LP. No doubt, it’s been done multiple times before by other audiophiles.
However the music was recorded, in the final analysis, it all comes down to the great wisdom of @marpow . (His words etched forever pictorially in time, never to be assailed by the QQ Bleeper Bot):
The man’s a poet.
