Apparatus for recording and reproducing a digitized audio signal on a magnetic tape which has a slant track format including means for detecting a control signal to identify a digitized audio signal on the slant track

摘要

An apparatus for recording a plurality of audio signals on a slant track of a helically scanned tape. The tape is divided into a plurality of segments. A digitized audio signal may be recorded at each of the segments. A control signal is supplied and recorded at a beginning of each segment. The control signal can be used for controlling an operation of the apparatus when the control signal is reproduced.
