ABSTRACT:
A rotatable guide having both a conical and a cylindrical surface on opposite sides thereof is provided, within a coaxial-reel cassette, for orienting a magnetic tape along two different tape paths, depending on whether the tape is wound within the cassette between the coaxial reels or is withdrawn from the cassette and wrapped around a helical recording drum. By providing such a guide, with appropriate selective orientation, the tape may be translated directly between the reels by means of the conical surface, or guidedly directed to and from the recording drum, about which it helically wraps, by means of the cylindrical surface.
