ABSTRACT:
A signal reproducing apparatus operates on a magnetic tape on which information is recorded according to one of first, second, and third predetermined recording formats. The signal reproducing apparatus includes first and second heads. The first head reproduces a signal from the magnetic tape, and has a first predetermined azimuth angle. The second head reproduces a signal from the magnetic tape, and has a second predetermined azimuth angle different from the first predetermined azimuth angle. A first detector detects a level of the signal reproduced by the first head. First components are separated from the signal reproduced by the second head. The first components have frequencies in a first predetermined band. A second detector detects a level of the first components. Second components are separated from the signal reproduced by the second head. The second components have frequencies in a second predetermined band separate from the first predetermined band. A third detector detects a level of the second components. A decision is made as to which of the first, second, and third predetermined recording formats the signals reproduced by the first and second heads correspond to in response to the levels detected by the first, second, and third detectors.
