Cross-Field Head
On conventional recorders the signal and bias are applied to the same recording head. Therefore the frequencies recorded, especially the high frequency component of the recorded signal tend to be attenuated or erased by the effect of the bias field.
On the exclusive Akai Cross-Field Head which was developed by Akai for practical use the signal and bias heads are mounted in opposition with their centers slightly off. As the recorded signal is entirely unaffected by the prevailing effect of the bias field, the tape can be recorded over the entire frequency spectrum with maximum fidelity.
Sensing Tape Continuous Reverse
Automatic reverse with metallic sensing tape is used for playback only. Reverse operation will occur when metallic sensing tape on pre-recorded tape makes contact with the Sensing Pin. Put metallic sensing tape at the desired reverse point on shiny side of the pre-recorded tape and another metallic sensing tape at the desired reverse point on dull side of the pre-recorded tape. The X-200D will then give continuous playback in both directions between two points.
Manual Reverse
The X-200D may be manually reversed by pushing the Reverse Buttons.
Solid State Pre-Amplifier with Two Integrated Circuits
X-200D’s solid state pre-amplifier uses special two Integrated Circuits developed by Akai
