- Liner Notes
The Teac X-1000R is a versatile bidirectional open-reel recorder accommodating both conventional and EE tapes up to 10-1/2 inches. Featuring a dbx Type II noise-reduction system, it operates at 7-1/2 or 3-3/4 ips in the regular home-stereo quarter-track format. The dual-capstan drive employs a servo-controlled motor, minimizing mechanical noise. Six heads (erase, record, and playback for each direction) and a microprocessor-controlled transport system enhance functionality. The electronic tape counter offers versatile time readouts, and additional features include high-speed search options, LED indicators, and controls for inputs, outputs, and playback speed. The rear panel includes standard connectors and options for Dupli-Sync and remote control.
