Auto-Tracking emerged sometime in 1990-1991 on the Hi-Fi high-end decks, and the tracking knob was quickly phased out. Sorry! :-( It's odd he was right, but hey, it had to happen *sometime*. snip You're both wrong. The "knob" has nothing to do with the scanning heads per se. What id did was change the effective distance between the sync head and the helical scan drum to get the scanning heads in the middle of the tracks. Most did this with sync delay, although some early Betamaxes used a servo motor to move the sync head. I had nothing to do with the scanning heads whatsoever. All "auto tracking" does is look for the "hot spot" and park the sync distance there. Many times, "auto tracking" doesn't result in the best signal, either...depends on the circuit. dB |

Sounds like "tracking adjustment" is just that, tracks the tape.
Sounds like this DoucheBob guy has **** for brains. |

I've noticed that on almost all of my prerecorded 'budget' tapes recorded on EP are a bit off with auto-tracking. The image is fine, but the audio is off. I just track it so it's not in Hi-Fi and voila! It's fine. Sorry if you thought I was jumping on you- it wasn't my intent at all. |

Well, it's better than him thinking he's Marilyn Monroe. I was getting
tired of sewing him into that cream-colored dress just so he could lip-synch "Happy Birthday Mr. President" for the one-hundredth time. The last time was the worst: he smeared himself with 40-weight so he could be appealing to his hero, President Dubya. |
