Birth and death are both processes that totally take over. They're more important than anything else going on.

ST-120 tape, which can record 120 minutes of video at the standard speed, will record just over 40 minutes on an ADAT. You can also use a long-playing ST-180 tape which will record over 60 minutes. ADATs are designed to handle both types, but the ST-180 costs more per minute because its base film is more expensive (so it can be thinner, but just as strong). If you don't need more than 40 minutes, get the ST-120. There's no advantage to getting shorter lengths, but they will also work. See similar questions...
