1951.0. "Need 2track 3 3/4 IPS Cassette Deck" by ELWD1::CAPOZZO () Mon Apr 03 1989 13:33

        This is a two part question. First does anyone know if there
    is a cassette deck out in the market that can record at 3/34 ips
    with dolby C ?  I know its avilible on 4 track, but is there one
    in a two track?
        The second part is, do you know where I can rent one. Either
    two track or four track. Something like a Fostex 160.

    Ever since BIC and Nakemichi got sued by Philips back in the seventies,
    noone had marketed dual-speed decks except for the dubbing decks which
    of course only let you *dub* at double speed, and usually disengage the
    noise reduction while doing it.

    Are you sure?  I own a dual speed Marantz SD300(0?) deck.  It records
    and plays back at normal or 2x speed.  Even has line/mic mixing,
    which I haven't seen on *any* other decks, making it effectively
    a four channel (not four track) deck.
    
    But, come to think of it, maybe I *have* had it since the '70's.
    No wonder my hair's turning gray!

    You're right, I forgot Marantz.  Those are also mid-seventies vintage
    and long out of production.

    Plenty of cassettes have mic/line mixers, mine does.  Just none
    of the cheap ones 8^)  8^)  8^)  8^)
