An apparatus of the present invention is a magnetic recording/reproduction apparatus for winding a magnetic tape around a rotary head cylinder, having a rotary head, for a predetermined arc, for recording/reproducing the magnetic tape. The magnetic recording/reproduction apparatus includes: a capstan shaft for driving the magnetic tape; and a pinch roller for pressing the magnetic tape against the capstan shaft. When the magnetic tape is being reproduced, the capstan shaft is rotated in a forward direction with the pinch roller pressing the magnetic tape against the capstan shaft. When a pause operation of pausing the reproduction of the magnetic tape is performed, a tension acting upon the magnetic tape is reduced.
