This is a link post Analogue tape editing - the Doctor Who theme
I've had this documentary about the BBC Radiophonic Workshop in my collection for a few years now, and I thought I'd cut this bit out and upload it.

It shows how the first version of the Doctor Who theme tune was edited, physically, on analogue tape, before the advent of digital sound.

interesting stuff... I remember learning to edit audio on analogue tape (i'm a bit of an oldie) but never conceived anything this anal/awesome.

do you have the rest of the documentary anywhere?

I'll upload if it it doesn't already exist somewhere on the internets. It's called "The Alchemists of Sound".
