Authors: McKnight, John G.

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 11 · Issue 3 · pp. 223–233 · July 1963

Abstract

A brief look is taken at several parameters of the erasing system of a magnetic tape recorder: head losses, remanence vs erasing current, and gap material and size. A re-recording phenomenon is studied, and some measuring problems are discussed.
