ABSTRACT:
A test cassette is provided for testing tape tensioning devices in tape recorders and players. The test cassette has a at least one of a supply reel and a takeup reel which has two circular arc portions of different radius. In a preferred embodiment, one of the circular arc portions has the radius of a substantially full reel of tape, and the other has the radius of a substantially empty reel of tape. In operation the test cassette simulates the conditions of a full reel and the conditions of a substantially empty reel with each revolution of the reel, and the extremes of operation of a tape tensioning device can be quickly and easily tested.
