ABSTRACT:
A method of searching for blanks in a digital tape player with reduced search time by performing the operation of searching for blanks on both sides of an analog recorded tape concurrently. In a digital tape player dedicated to both analog and digital reverse playback, a reverse fixed head component is arranged so that a tape can travel both ways by reversing the fixed head component 1. The head surface of the head component is divided into two tracks and one of the tracks is provided with analog playback head sections 2 and the other track with digital playback head sections 3. In such a digital tape player, analog recorded signals on one of the tracks of the analog recorded tape are being read by the analog playback head sections 2, while analog recorded signals on the other track are being read by the digital playback head sections 3 at the same time, so that blanks on both upper and lower tracks can be searched simultaneously.
