<p>Apparatus to control the movement of a tape on an audio tape recorder in which a time code signal recorded on the tape is reproduced by driving the tape to thereby search for desired stop position, and the tape is stopped at that position. A time code comparison means (13) makes a comparison between time code data representing the present position and data representing a cue point position at which the tape is to be stopped. On the basis of the result of the comparison, a mode control means (14) controls the tape movement mode. In accordance with the comparison data and the tape running mode, a timer control means (15) is actuated such that a reproducing head is brought into contact with or separated from the tape, whereby the wear of the reproducing head is reduced, and the tape is reliably stopped at the cue point position by the time code signal alone.</p> |
