Période

THIS TYPE OF TAPE RECORDER PROBABLY USED IN 1960S. (REF. 1)

Canada

EXAMPLE OF AN INEXPENSIVE TAPE RECORDER THAT WOULD LIKELY HAVE BEEN THE FIRST AVAILABLE TO MANY CANADIANS UNABLE TO AFFORD MORE EFFECTIVE MACHINES, WHICH AT THIS TIME WERE STILL VERY EXPENSIVE. (REF. 1)

Fonction

TO RECORD & PLAY BACK AUDIO SIGNALS ON MAGNETIC TAPE.

Technique

EXAMPLE OF A VERY SIMPLE PORTABLE TAPE RECORDER, FEATURING A PERMANENT ERASE HEAD, COMBINED RECORD/PLAYBACK HEAD AND SINGLE-MOTOR RIM DRIVE. DUE TONUMEROUS TECHNICAL COMPROMISES AIMED AT EXTREME ECONOMY OF MANUFACTURE, THIS MACHINE WOULD HAVE PRODUCED POOR SOUND QUALITY. (REF. 1)
