Commentary
Click auto reverse cassette deck in pursuit of multifunctionality.
It uses a rotary head that solves problems such as differences in sound quality and azimuth adjustment during round-trip operations, and an infrared sensor that detects the tape leader, enabling quick reverse operation.
By operating the reverse mode selector, it is possible to record and play back in both directions or one way without turning over the tape.
The noise reduction system is equipped with dbx and DolbyC B.
Dbx reduces noise by more than 30 dB over the entire audible frequency range and provides high quality sound without distortion even at high recording levels.
It also has a dbx disc position that allows you to play a dbx encoded disc, which is dbx-encoded at the time of cutting and decoded at the time of playback for a low-noise, high-dynamic-range sound.
In order to realize excellent operability, it is equipped with 2 kbyte electric circuit exclusive microcomputer and 1 kbyte mechanism drive exclusive microcomputer, and in addition, independent motors for capstan, reel, and head movement are installed.
Equipped with a tape slack prevention mechanism that automatically takes up the slack when the tape is attached and prevents recording errors.
