ABSTRACT:
A magnetic recording and/or reproducing apparatus is operable with a tape cassette including spaced apart tape supply and take-up reels and a length of magnetic recording tape having its opposite ends anchored to the tape supply and take-up reels, respectively. The apparatus includes a head carrier carrying at least one magnetic transducer head; first and second hubs adapted to be engaged with the tape supply and take-up reels, respectively, when the tape cassette is loaded in the apparatus; a guide mechanism operable, when the tape cassette is loaded in the apparatus with the tape supply and take-up reels engaged with the first and second hubs, to selectively draw and withdraw a first tape portion of the length of magnetic recording tape extending between the tape supply and take-up reels out of and into the tape cassette to thereby bring that first tape portion to an operative position, at which the length of magnetic recording tape is held in sliding contact with the head carrier, and to a withdrawn position at which the first tape portion is accommodated within the tape cassette, respectively, and a tape transport mechanism.
