PURPOSE:To obtain an information signal reproducing equipment with much convenience by adopting a constitution that the edge of a tape recording medium is detected and whether the edge is the end or the start of the tape is detected as to each region. CONSTITUTION:When the edge is detected, a designated region is changed over and whether the edge is the start or the end is discriminated as to a region designated newly, and when it is the start, reproduction is applied and when the edge is the end, the tape undergoes fast feeding automatically toward the opposite edge to be the start. In case of the fast feeding for example, the region designated cannot be reproduced when it comes to the edge. When the edge is detected, a region designating circuit 24 switches the designated region. The changeover of the designated region is executed between regions where the tape running direction at recording differs. Accordingly a capstan to be used is selected as well and a capstan driving the tape in opposite direction to a capstan used for the reproduction of the designated region so far is activated.
