The Kansas City Standard is a system for storing data on cassettes. It was devised at a symposium in Kansas City in November, 1975, convened by Byte magazine, which published the resulting standard in its February 1976 issue. This format was used by a number of systems, especially S-100 bus systems (the same sorts of systems that generally used CP/M when they acquired disk drives).

Some systems using this system:

  • Acorn
  • Casio (calculators, keyboards)
  • Exidy Sorcerer
  • Ohio Scientific
  • Processor Technology (SOL-20)
