Reports[edit]
- Report from "Tape Museum":
- TASCAM Series 60 - Similarities.
- The ATR 60 is built so that the drive and electronics are in two separate chassis (2-piece). This modular design allows the tape drive and electronics to be mounted in a standard 19-inch ELA equipment cabinet, in a portable 19-inch rack, or in a mounting console such as the TASCAM CS-65 or CS-650, CS-607 and CS-702 + 704.
- The ATR-60's turntable is an exceptionally reliable professional design. It is built on an extra heavy chassis that guarantees stable alignment and the most accurate tape running. The robust construction of the drive minimizes maintenance. The microprocessor control system guarantees smooth, fast and accurate tape running by controlling the two direct-drive coil motors and the phase-locked-loop capstan motor.
- Even when synchronized with other audio drives, film scanners or video systems, the ATR-60 has enough torque and accuracy to keep up with fast switching operations.
- Furthermore, the mechanical and electrical drive design protects the tape from "stretching" and other stresses, even during long hours of start/stop operation and fast switching.
- The ATR-60's electronics are built on plug-in printed circuits for easy service. The VU meter front panel swings out (forward) for quick access to all trim controls needed for routine adjustment. This method also allows better viewing of the VU meters during adjustment. The adjustment is just as easy to perform in the vertical as in the horizontal position of the unit.
