28 is a recording start button of the recording circuit operating section 26, 29 is a recording standby button of the recording circuit operating section 26, 30 is an output terminal for the video signal and audio signal of the first recording medium 21, 31
are input terminals for video signals and audio signals to be recorded on the second recording medium 22. In addition, the part surrounded by dotted line 32 is the VTR
1, a reproduction circuit section 2 that reproduces the first recording medium 21;
2, a reproduction circuit control section 23, a reproduction circuit operation section 25, and an output terminal 30 for the video signal of the first recording medium 21. Also, the part surrounded by dotted line 33 is called VTR2,
The recording circuit section 22, the recording circuit control section 24, the recording circuit operation section 26, and the second recording medium 2 that record on the second recording medium 22.
The input terminal 31 includes an input terminal 31 for a video signal to be recorded on the video signal. Normally, VTR1 and VTR2 are configured separately.
It is connected by an output terminal 30 and an input terminal 31.

The operation of the conventional VTR configured as described above will be explained below.

In FIG. 2, when the playback start button 27 of the VTR 1 is pressed, the playback circuit control section 25 sends a playback start command to the playback circuit section 23, and the first recording medium 21 starts playing back.
The output terminal 30 outputs the reproduced video signal and audio signal.

Further, when the recording start button 28 of the VTR 2 is pressed, the recording circuit control unit 26 sends a recording start command to the recording circuit unit 24, and the second recording medium 22 receives the video signal input from the input terminal 31, Start recording the audio signal.

Next, when the record standby button 29 of the VTR 2 is pressed,
The recording circuit control section 26 sends a recording standby command to the recording circuit section 24, and the second recording medium 22 enters recording standby.

[0008]

However, in the above configuration, the reproduction circuit control section 25 and the recording circuit control section 2
6 functions independently, the control unit is complicated and it is difficult to synchronize the recording start timing. The problem is that the operation is complicated and it is easy to make mistakes.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a magnetic recording and reproducing device that can control recording and reproducing operations with a simple configuration.

0010

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the above problems, the magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus of the present invention has two recording media inserted into the same device, a reproducing circuit for reproducing the first recording medium, and a reproducing circuit for reproducing the first recording medium. A recording circuit capable of recording the reproduction signal from the circuit onto a second recording medium and a command from one operation button are received, and in the first operation, a reproduction start command and a recording start command are sent to the reproduction circuit and the recording circuit, respectively. In the second and subsequent operations, a control circuit is provided which alternately sends a recording standby command and a recording start command to the recording circuit.

[0011]

[Function] With the above-described configuration, the present invention can simplify the control section by having a control section that can control the reproduction circuit section and the recording circuit section at the same time, and can start playback with a single button.
Since it is possible to start recording and standby for recording, it is possible to simplify the operation and eliminate erroneous operations, and it is also possible to easily match the recording start timing.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, 11 is a first recording medium, 12 is a second recording medium, and 13 is a first recording medium 11.
14 is a recording circuit section that records on the second recording medium 12; 15 is a control section that controls the reproduction circuit section 13 and the recording circuit section 14; and 16 is a reproduction circuit section 13 and the recording circuit section 14. This is the operation unit that operates the two at the same time.

Regarding the VTR configured as described above,
Its operation will be explained. Regarding FIG. 1, when the button of the operation section 16 is first operated, the control section 15 sends a playback start command to the playback circuit section 13, and at the same time sends a recording start command to the recording circuit section 14. When the button 16 is operated for the second time or later, the control unit 15
Accordingly, the recording standby command and the recording start command are alternately sent to the recording circuit section 14, and the recording circuit section 14 can repeatedly perform recording and standby.

[0014]

As described above, the present invention has two recording media inserted into the same device, a reproduction circuit that reproduces the first recording medium, and a reproduction signal from the reproduction circuit that is transmitted to the second recording medium. A recordable recording circuit receives commands from one operation button, and the first operation sends a playback start command and a recording start command to the playback circuit and recording circuit, respectively, and from the second operation onwards, it sends a recording standby command to the recording circuit. By having a control circuit that alternately sends recording start commands, the control unit can be simplified, and the ability to start playback, start recording, and standby for recording with a single button eliminates erroneous operation of operation buttons, and the screen being played back can be easily controlled. You can obtain excellent effects such as being able to easily record the necessary parts of the document.
