Abstract
Indexing apparatus for indicating the amount of information recorded on or transcribed from a record medium. A non-linear index scale having, for example, time markings thereon, is moved into view concurrently with the rewind movement of the record medium to a beginning location in preparation of a reproducing, or transcribing operation. The length of index scale viewable by an operator represents the amount of recorded information to be transcribed; and as transcription proceeds, the scale remains stationary and is scanned by an indicator. For an information recording operation, the index scale is moved fully into view and is scanned by the indicator.
