PURPOSE:To obtain a cassette tape device with which the cassette tape operability is improved by providing a nonvolatile memory circuit consisting of a semiconductor element into a cassette case storing a magnetic tape serving as a recording medium having a low speed and large capacity. CONSTITUTION:In a record mode the signals given from an input terminal 8 are recorded on a magnetic tape in a cassette case 12 via a record signal control circuit 9, a record amplifier 10 and a record head 11. At the same time, the information needed for the record contents and its related information are stored to a nonvolatile memory circuit 4 in the case 12 via an input device 20 and a system control circuit 19. In a reproduction mode the information is first read out of the circuit 4, and both a tape drive mechanism 18 and a reproduction signal control circuit 15 are controlled by the circuit 19. At the same time, the signals are obtained from the magnetic tape in the case 12 through a reproduction signal output terminal 6 and via a reproduction head 13 and a reproduction amplifier 14. The information of the circuit 4 is displayed when necessary to a display device 21. |
