ONKYO TA-3X

Commentary

Stereo cassette deck with full play and air check function.

It is equipped with a microcomputer that controls the timing of operation of the mechanism quickly and accurately in a centralized manner.
In addition, the drive mechanism is equipped with a DC servo motor that automatically controls the rotational speed with an electronic circuit as a dedicated motor for the capstan drive. Stable running performance is achieved through a highly reliable and simple rotational transmission mechanism and a stable upright loading system.
Also, dedicated DC motors are used for reel drive and head base drive respectively.

Equipped with continuous automatic music search function AMSS (Auto Music search System).
In the PLAY mode, if you press AMSS FWD Search, the program will fast-forward to the beginning of the next song, play it for approximately 15 seconds from the beginning of the song, and then fast-forward to the beginning of the next song again and play it for 15 seconds. This operation is repeated continuously. If you find a song you want to listen to in the middle of the search, simply press the PLAY switch that, the program will return to normal PLAY mode.
If you press AMMS REV Search in the PLAY mode, a continuous reverse search will be performed by repeating the rewind operation and the 15-second cue playback of the previous track. In this case, too, you can return to the PLAY mode during the search.

Equipped with Auto Space Rec Mute which is convenient for cutting CM and editing tape during recording.
Pressing this switch automatically creates an unrecorded portion for approximately five seconds and waits for recording with REC-PAUSE.

The head is equipped with a hard guard hard permalloy head.
The shape is is reduced and the frequency characteristics are improved by making the shape hyperbolic and improving the head touch.
In addition, a hard layer of Mohs scale 8.5 is specially deposited on the surface of permalloy to guard the core and improve abrasion resistance. In addition, the part without the core is guarded with metal of the same hardness as the core to prevent wear of the core part.

It has a built-in Dolby system.

Equipped with LED digital peak level meter.

Equipped with a timer standby mechanism.

Equipped with a full auto stop that stops automatically when the tape ends.
