ABSTRACT:
A head-carrier drum control apparatus in a magnetic recording and/or reproducing apparatus which comprises a rotatably supported head-carrier drum assembly; a drive unit accommodated in the head-carrier drum assembly including a coil, disposed in a magnetic circuit, and at least one positionable magnetic transducing head cooperable with the coil to be displaced in a direction generally widthwise of a length of magnetic tape. The apparatus further includes a contact feeler through which a control current is supplied to the drive unit; an electrode held in contact with the contact feeler and connected electrically with the coil; and a drive circuit for controlling the position of the transducer head so as to cause a trace of movement of the transducing head depicted during information reproduction to properly follow a track recorded by a magnetic transducing head on the length of magnetic tape during information recording.
