Abstract: A tape recorder having a solenoid coil-plunger type actuator for performing a mechanical function within the recorder incorporates the solenoid coil into the circuitry to serve as the inductive component of a filter adapted to filter the noise components produced by the DC tape driving motor, or to filter the output of the DC wave rectifier or to filter other outputs within the recorder.
Abstract: A multitrack tape recorder is provided with a set of pushbutton stop switches and associated circuitry adapted to preset the recorder to stop playing or recording at the end of any desired channel.
