ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for helical scan recording/playback of preselected tacks on a flexible tape medium comprising a linear slide structure capable of movement transversely relative to a longitudinal direction of the tape medium, the linear slide structure including a scanner/drum capable of sliding movement relative to a longitudinal direction of the tape medium between opposed edges of the tape medium defining a recording area, the scanner/drum having a head stack for helical scan recording/playback of the preselected tracks, and a stepper motor on a trolley end of the linear slide structure for causing the scanner/drum to slide transversely relative to the longitudinal direction of the tape medium.
