ABSTRACT:
In a tape recording apparatus, a tape-drive mode selecting and actuating mechanism comprises a plurality of operational terminals corresponding to recording, reproducing, fast-feeding, rewinding and the like, which are aligned in a row adjacent the free end of a pivotable selecting lever. The selecting lever is also slidable and has a pushing portion at its free end for automatically selecting and confronting one of the operational terminals. Once the selecting lever is slidably moved into position, it is pivoted to push the moving means for moving the engaged operational terminals a predetermined length. The tape-drive mode selecting and actuating mechanism further includes light emitting elements and one light-receiving element generating an electrical signal for positioning the pushing portion of the selecting lever at the selected operational terminals corresponding to the tape-drive mode push button selected by the operator.
