Cantillation tapes for several Near Eastern communal traditions were prepared
by "HaMachon LaMuzika Y'hudit", The Center for Religious Jewish Music located
at Heichal Shlomo in Jerusalem. I got them there; I do not know who
imports them. Written musical notes may be found in "Jewish Music" by
Abraham Idelsohn
and much more extensively in his 10-volume "Thesaurus" (reprinted by Ktav
as a 4-volume set). My set is at work and I am at home, but I believe
that most of
the individual volumes on specific Near Eastern communities include their Trope.
