FEATURES

Microcomputer Controlled Multi-Program System

A highly efficient microcomputer is used to provide a wide
range of programmable functions. The song location
function rapidly winds tape directly to the beginning of
any particular song on a cassette up to nine songs away
from the present location in either direction. A repeat
function repeatedly plays a particular song or the section
of a cassette between the [000] tape connter point and
either the beginning or end of the cassette up to ten times.
Theres also an automatic music search function that plays
about the first eight seconds of each song in the forward
or reverse direction.

Auto Space Rec Mute Button

Press this button while youre making a recording to auto
matically enter a blank section of tape about five seconds
long. Once the blank section has been entered, the TA-2044
will automatically switch to the REC-PAUSE mode. To
continue recording, simply press the PLAY button. This
function is convenient for temporarily interrupting record-
ing, editting tape during dUbbing and inserting unrecorded
sections long enough for the automatic continuous song
location function to detect.

Special Hard Permalloy Head Designed for Metal Tapes

The special process used to obtain the extra hard permalloy
head surface ensures greater resistance to wear and a better
saturation flux density in order to take full advantage of
high performance metal tapes. The hyperbolic shape also
improves head-to-tape contact.

2-Motor Tape Transport with Separate Head Assembly
Motor

The tape transport system, along with the heads, determines
the level of performance of a cassette deck. To guarantee
extremely stable and accurate tranSport the TA-2044
uses a DC servo controlled capstan motor. This motor is
frequency or instantaneous changes in load. A highly
reliable, simple drive transmission system and precision
vertical cassette holder further enhance overall accuracy
and stability. As a result, wow and flutter is under 0.04%.
In addition, separate DC motors drive the reel tables and
head base and the head assembly is constructed to move
silently with no annoying clicks.

Dolby B and C Noise Reduction

Along with standard Dolby B NR, the TA-2044 also has
the even more effective Dolby C NR system. Dolby C
NR reduces tape background noise by 20 dB at 5 kHz,
about 3 times more than Dolby B NR. In addition to its
wide band noise reduction, Dolby C NR uses a sliding band
technique that varies the band width of noise reduction
according to the input level, thereby avoiding noise pump-
ing. Dolby C NR also has an anti-saturation effect to
reduce the chance of tape saturation in the high range. All
these features combine to eliminate the adverse effects on
tape sound that other noise reduction systems can cause.
