I'm not sure the technicalities of those things..but I'm guessing it records magnetically onto a spool of metal wire..

I heard it used as an effect on some recordings..the best adjective I can think of for the sound is "old"..sounds like what you recorded was recorded a million years ago..cool if you ask me..

Very Grungy. No bias to my knowledge. You splice by tying knots....    I played with one when I was a kid. It was a lot of fun, but you can cut your fingers on the wire.
