Double reverse cassette deck for double recording, series recording and reverse recording.

It is equipped with a double recording system that allows simultaneous recording on the a deck and b deck, a series recording system that starts the b deck round trip recording after the a deck round trip recording is finished, and synchronized dubbing / double-speed dubbing that makes the a deck play standby and the b deck record standby when the dubbing switch is turned on.

It is equipped with functions such as Computer Edit Dubbing, which allows you to edit and record by changing the order of songs by repeatedly recording and re-muting, while program playback of 15 randomly selected songs in RMPS memory for 15 songs on deck a, and editing and recording by repeating recording and re-muting on deck b.
In addition, it is equipped with a RCPS (Rec Cancel Program Skip) mechanism that cancels any song you do not like during Computer Edit / Dubbing and automatically starts Computer Edit / Dubbing from the next reserved song.

After the round-trip playback of the a deck is finished, you can enjoy the long play of 2 full tapes by the relay playback to the A side of the b deck.
If you set it to repeat mode, it plays continuously from deck a to deck b and from deck b to deck a.

After fading out, a 4-second rec-mute is performed and the recording is standby, so you can create an appropriate interval between songs.
