What is a magnetic tape recorder?

Magnetic tape recorder uses electromagnets to record audio, videos or computer data into a special plastic ribbon. There are many types of magnetic tape recordings whose design and purpose differ, but all share the common principle of operation. The information to be recorded is processed by a recording amplifier before sending to one or more recording heads, which are very accurate electromagnets that magnetize the recording tape when they pass. The recorded signal can be played using another set of heads and a playing amplifier, although cheap recorders of homemade tape often use the same set of heads for recording and playback. Magnetic tape recorders in all their forms have been replaced by devices and media by digital recording equipment at the beginning of the 21st century. The invention of the dimensional stable plastics allowed the recording tape. The tape is simply a plastic ribbon that has magnetic iron-oxide or chrome oxide on one side. The recording tape width differs fromThose on the type of record to be made.

The

sound strip recorders have appeared over the years in many forms, from small, cheap units on the reel to large, more trace recorders used in music studios. Records for reels and cassettes have become a standard home sound device and remained until they are replaced by affordable digital recorders. Early home computers used standard cassette tapes to store computer programs and timely telephone recorders recorded phone messages on microcase tapes.

The

recorders of video tapes have also been made in many forms since they were first invented. The first recorders of the video tape were large, heavy pieces of equipment that recorded a black and white image on a tape that was 2 inches wide (5.08 cm). They were used in early TV studios. Followed by color video recorders, before, before,Before most consumers could afford a color television file.

As the electronics technology and adolescent science of video recording have improved, home recording systems were available. For years, standard video formats (VHS) and Betamax Formats of video recordings have been for home recording and commercial films. At the end of the 20th century, manual magnetic videotapes became very affordable and replaced the previously used 8 millimeter film cameras.

In industrial and military computer systems, another form of magnetic magnetic recorder was used. These recorders used magnetic tape to record computer programs and data. The tape used by this type of magnetic tape recorder was 1-2 inches wide (2.54-5.08 cm).
