ABSTRACT:
An ultra compact recorder in which the drive motor is located within the central aperture of a tape reel. The motor shell functions as the axle around which the supply reel rotates. In the single reel embodiment the tape is non-interchangeable and coiled onto the supply reel in an endless loop, the tape being drawn from the interior of the coil and thereafter returned to the periphery. In a dual reel embodiment, the drive system may have rewind and fast-forward functions. In the cassette embodiment the two reel cassette may be removed and reattached at will.
