Description
Conservative design and Swiss precision construction gave the Revox B-36 an air of quality and efficiency.
Three Papst motors, separate record, playback and erase torroid heads, no pressure pads or pins, 10″ (25cm) reel capacity and and a wind speed 2,400 feet of tape in 90 seconds guaranteed it’s employment in many
broadcast stations and studios. Solenoid-controlled push-button operation for all functions, separate
record and playback amplifiers and a quick-start mechanism (under 1 second) were other features that endeared it to the professional market.
