Special Hard
permalloy
The 3-head design
has some distinct advantages over the conventional combined Pb/rec format.
Since the playback and recording heads are separate, the playback head gap
width can be made narrower than the recording head so it can capture with
greater precision the higher frequency sounds. For durability and improved
metal tape compatibility the rec and pb heads are fashioned out of Special Hard
Permalloy. This format also lets you monitor (from tape) what you.ve just
recorded so you can fine tune and optimize the recording level. The 3-motor
system achieves superb stability and reliability in tape transport. A servo
controlled capstan motor is the ultimate in self-correcting precision, and the
rell table motor further contributes to eliminating wow and flutter. The head
block is moved into place by its own independent motor for optimum
functionality and precision.
Silent Tape
Transport with Micro-Computer Control
When tape transport
begins, the head block is silently and smoothly lifted into position. Besides
eliminating annoying start-up noises, this micro-computer controlled system
avoids mechanical shocks that could cause misalignments of head azimuth and
transport parts. Also, much less power is needed, so there's no need for
oversized transformers in the power supply which might be potential sources of
hum and induction noise.
This very simple but
useful feature automatically inserts a 5-second silent space in the tape when
the Auto Space button is pressed. Later, in playback, the AMCS automatic search
system will detect these pauses electronically and stop the tape at just the
right spot.
Automatic-Music
Control System (AMCS)
This function allows
you to skip forward or reverse to the beginning of the adjacent section of
recorded music. The first 10 seconds of that section are played and then
scanning continues, playing the first seconds of each successive track until
the play button is pressed. With AMCS you can quickly search for the section of
a tape you're looking for , or quickly scan the entire contents of a tape.
Dolby B, C and
HX-pro
Conventional Dolby B
reduces noise in the higher frequency ranges while the newer Dolby C does the
same for the high and middle ranges where tape hiss and modulation noise,
though less audible, can still degrade fidelity. The TA-2058 is additionally
equipped with HX-Pro which constantly monitors the high frequencies in the audo
signal and adjust the bias current for optimum flat frequency response. When
recording music with a lot of high frequency peaks, HX-pro will automatically
lower the bias to allow for the additional high range "headroom"
required to capture these sounds without running into tape saturation and
distortion problems.
Two repeat Modes
The single and full
repeat modes allow you to repeat a single song if you like or to listen to a
whole cassette side a second time.
