JPH03212839A - Synchronous sound recorder for auto-reverse tape deck - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform sound recording without generating sound interruption in the middle way of music by continuing synchronous recording by automatically performing auto-reverse by comparing tape residual time with the time of the music of a CD. CONSTITUTION:A signal inputted with a synchronous sound recording key 3 is outputted to external equipment(CD player, etc.) 1 via a synchronizing signal generation circuit 5, and the synchronous sound recording is started. At this time, a microcomputer 4 calculates the tape residual time from sound recording tape time inputted at the beginning, and simultaneously, the time signal 6 of the next music is inputted from the external equipment 1 to the computer 4. At such a case, the tape residual time and the time of the next music of the CD are always controlled in the microcomputer 4. When the tape residual time is larger than the time of the next music of the CD, the sound recording is continued as it is, and adversely, when the former is smaller than the latter, fast feeding is performed up to a tape end, and a tape is switched from a plane A to a plane B, and the synchronous sound recording of the next music of the CD is performed starting from the forefront of the plane B. In such a way, the sound interruption in the middle way of the music can be prevented occurring.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a tape deck, and particularly to a synchronous recorder suitable for an auto-reverse tape deck.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in synchronized recording between an auto-reverse tape deck and a CD player, etc., the auto-reverse deck did not take into account the sound breakage that occurs when switching from tape side A to tape B side.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional technology mentioned above, even in the middle of a song, the tape would switch from side A to side B, or it would auto-fade out at one point and then record again from the beginning of side B. There were problems such as cutting.

The purpose of the present invention is to record the tape without cutting out in the middle of the song by switching the tape from side A to side B and continuing recording when the tape end is near and the next song cannot be recorded on the tape. It's all about what you can do.

[Means to solve the problem]

The above object is achieved by performing synchronous recording operations using a microcomputer.

[Effect]

The microcomputer counts the time from the start of the tape, catches the remaining amount of time on the tape, and also records the amount of time left on the tape.
Since the time of the next song is also detected by the data signal from the CD player, there will be no malfunction.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. To start synchronous recording, a signal input by the synchronous recording key 3 of the auto-reverse deck 2 is outputted to the external device (such as a CD player) 1 via the synchronous signal generating circuit 5, and synchronous recording is started. At this time, the computer 4 has started counting one hour, and is calculating the remaining tape time from the recording tape time input for the first time. At the same time, a time signal 6 for the next song is input from the external device 1 to the microcomputer 4. Here, the remaining tape time Te and the CD next track time TC are always controlled within the microcomputer 4 as shown in FIG. 2 below.

A flowchart of this operation will be explained with reference to FIG.

In this operation, if the remaining tape time Te is longer than the time of the next song on the CD, recording continues as is, and if it is shorter, it is fast-forwarded to the end of the tape and the tape is moved from side A to side B. Switch to the surface. (If you have already cut from side A to side B, stop the tape at this point.) Also.

When the auto-reverse deck 2 is not in recording operation, the external device 1 is also stopped, so the songs on the CD are not played first.

Then, the next song on the CD is synchronously recorded starting from the beginning of side B.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, in an auto-reverse deck, during synchronous recording, if the remaining time of the tape is shorter than the time of the next song on the CD, after the tape switches from side A to side B, Since it is recorded, it is possible to eliminate sound interruptions in the middle of the song.
