CROSS-FIELD HEAD
On conventional recorders signal and bias are applied to the same recording
head. Therefore, the frecquencies recorded, especially the high frequency component of the recorded signal, tends to be attenuated or erased by the effect of the bias field: On the exclusive AKAI CROSS-FIELD HEAD, which was developed by AKAI for practical use, the signal and bias heads are mounted separately, in opposition with each other, with their centers slightly off. As the recorded signal is entirely unaffected by the prevailing effect of the bias field, the tape can be recorded over the entire frequency spectrum with maximum fidelity.
ONE MICRON GAP HEAD
Model X-2000S utilizes the cross-field head to obtain an amazing level of recording characteristics in reel-to-reel recording. In cartridge and cassette recording, the high quality of the one-micron gap head designed by AKAI also gives excellent recording results.
8-TRACK STEREO RECORDING/ PLAYBACK (CARTRIDGE)
Model X-2000S cartridge employs the 8-track stereo system. The tape has a total of 8 tracks, two of which are used at a time for stereo recording or playback. There are four choices of channels for recording and play back. At the end of the tape, the next channel is automatically positioned for recording or playback. Recording or playback time for one channel is 15 minutes (one continuous hour on 4 channels using a 300 ft. cartridge tape) Desired channel can easily be selected by operating the CARTRFDGE PROGRAN SELECTOR BUTTON.
4-TRACK STEREO RECORDING/ PLAYBACK (CASSETTE)
Model X-2000S employs a 4-track stereo recording/playback system: The first half of the stereophonic recording/playback is made on tracks No. 1 and 2. The second half is made on tracks No. 3 and 4 after the cassette tape has been turned over.
CARTRIDGE RECORDING TAPE ACT-200 and ACT-300
Akai`s X-2000S Tape Recorder is the latest model capable of recording with a cartridge tape. For best results in cartridge recording, we recommend AKAI quality cartridge recording tapes ACT-200 (200 ft. long) and ACT-300 (300 ft. long).
