STUDIO 96
PROFESSIONAL TAPE TRANSPORT
Heavy-duty transport for broadcasting commercial or other
critical recording applications. Accommodates up to 4 hyperbolic
heads In any configuration for full, half or quarter track, "features
automatic sequence function, dynamic braking, 2-spced hysteresis
synchronous capstan motor and heuvy-duty reel drive motor,
remote control receptacle. Speclnl circuit provides smooth tape
starting by momentarily applying over 2 times the torque required
for normnl running. Solenoid controlled fall-safe brake stops
transport in event of power failure; photo-electric run-out switch
stops transport in event of tape-break or run-out. Mounts 5", 7"
or 10H" reels. "Cuing" feature releases all brakes, allowing
manual rotation of the reels for cuing or editing purposes, l'lug-lu
control box contains all control relays allowing quick and easy
exchange with a spare. Signal-to-Nolso Ratio: 55 db below peak
recording level at 7H Ips. Flutter and Wow: Less than 0.1',; rms
nt 15 Ips: 0.1% nt 7H ips. Fast Forward or Rewind Time: 2100 ft.
reel, 70 seconds. Controls: 4 telephone-type lever or key switches:
Heel Size Selector, Sliced Selector, I'lay-Cue and Fast-Forward-
Stop-Iicwiud. Counter: 3 digit, resettable. Power Requirements:
Standard model, 150 W num.. 117 VAC. 60 Hz. (Available at 117
VAC, 50 Hz at no extra charge or at 230 VAC, 50 Hz with stepdown
transformer for an additional S18.50; specify.) Designed for
standard EIA relay rack mounting In vertical or horizontal posi
tion. Hamniertone gray ilnlsh. Size: 10" x 12 H" clearance; 22 X" x
15" clearance with 10H" reels In place. Front clearance, 2"; behind
panel clearance, 7". Shpg. Wt., 50 lbs.
Specify Tape Speed: 15"/sec and 7H*/sec, 7H*/sec and 3H*/scc
or 3H"/scc and lj-s"/sec. Extra tape speed pulleys are available
for converting speeds. (Tape speed of 15 Ips Is not recommended
for the lower motor speed nt 50 Hz. Addlllonnl cooling fan, not
Included, Is required for 50 Hz operation.)
