ABSTRACT:
In order to provide a 4-cassette magazine that does not require removal from the recorder-player in order to replace one or more cassettes, the magazine is composed of a turnstile rack providing compartments fitting the cassettes and open to the periphery, seated in a shallow pan having a rim that closes off the periphery of the turnstile except for one gate opening through which a cassette may be ejected or inserted when a compartment containing it is in registry with the gate opening. The stationary pan is part of a deck on which is mounted a rim drive for the turnstile which is combined with an indexing device and arranged to controllably propel a cassette into or out of a compartment when the turnstile is stopped. The pan has an aperture for a cassette lowering and raising device onto which a cassette is slid by the turnstile to bring it into operating position. Another aperture serves to assist cassette insertion or ejection.
