I don't see how a Tape recording can be improved by copying it to another tape.

By its analogue nature every copy made from an original will be worse than the last.

Then again my Star Wars VHS tapes look terrible and always has. Colours are really faded but then after years of making tapes from their masters it would be.

Wasn't until the DVDs and Blu Rays they went back and remastered the negatives bringing the colours back to what they should be.
