The Philips Pro 36 came with three heads with an optional fourth head position which could be a pilot head or a second playback head.
From the service manual
– NAB or CCIR (IEC) equalization by switchable correction networks. Tape speed selection automatically switches equalization and all corresponding preset controls by semiconductor switching.
– Ferroxcube heads (FXC) – research has produced a completely new high density head, a new technique and a radical departure from conventional head design. These have solved problems in the manufacture of FXC heads . The new newly developed nickel zinc ferrites make it possible to make had material with very low porosity. As compared with conventional metal heads , the FXC heads show hardly any wear and this obviates the need for frequent head replacement.
– Digital time counter reading minutes and seconds
– Balanced inputs and outputs
– 6 preset bias controls for each speed of each track
– Switchable Voltage & frequency (50 or 60 hz)
