Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent misoperation by discriminating whether a command from one operation button indicates the start or stand-by mode of recording with different buzzer tones. CONSTITUTION:When an editing operation button 17 is operated for the 1st time, a control part 15 sends a reproduction start command for a recording medium 11 to a reproducing circuit part 13 and sends a recording start command for the recording medium 12 to a recording circuit part 14 at the same time. When the button 17 is operated for the 2nd time, the control part 15 sends a recording stand-by command and the recording start command to the circuit 14 alternately. Consequently, the circuit part 14 enters the recording mode and stand-by mode repeatedly and a buzzer circuit part 19 generates the different buzzer tones in the start mode and stand-by mode of recording. Therefore, the start and stand-by modes of recording can easily be recognized and misoperation is eliminated.

[0008]

However, as described above, since the user operates the reproduction start button 27 of the VTR 1, the recording start button 28 of the VTR 2, and the recording standby button 29, the user starts recording. There is a problem that it is difficult to recognize the recording state, the start of the recording standby state, and the recording standby state, and an erroneous operation is likely to occur.

In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus equipped with a buzzer circuit for generating different buzzer sounds so that a command from a control circuit can be discriminated as a recording start command or a recording standby command. To do.

[0010]

In order to solve the above problems, a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention comprises a reproducing circuit for inserting two recording media into the same device and reproducing the first recording medium, and a reproducing circuit. A recording circuit capable of recording a reproduction signal from the circuit on the second recording medium, and a command from one operation button,
The first operation sends a playback start command and a recording start command to the playback circuit and the recording circuit, respectively, and the second and subsequent operations send a recording standby command and a recording start command alternately to the recording circuit, and a command from the control circuit. Is provided with a buzzer circuit for generating different buzzer sounds so that the recording start command and the recording standby command can be distinguished.

[0011]

According to the present invention, since it is possible to distinguish whether the command from one button is the recording start or the recording standby by different buzzer sounds, it is possible to eliminate an erroneous operation.
