ABSTRACT:
A magnetic reproducing device, such as a helical scan VTR, for use with a magnetic tape having slant recorded tracks is provided with a system for determining tape address information. A magnetic head is supported on a bi-morph plate, and a circuit is provided for supplying a first drive signal to the bi-morph plate for positioning the head to rescan a given recording track on a tape and for supplying a second drive signal to the bi-morph plate for positioning the head to scan the next desired recorded track. A counter is provided to count the number of second drive signals and to provide tape address information based on that count.
