Abstract
A device for setting the start position for recording on a magnetic tape includes a leader tape detector, a signal detector for determining whether or not a prerecorded signal exists on the tape, and mechanisms for setting the recording start location at a position following the prerecorded data by a predetermined amount. The device also functions to automatically set the recording start position at a correct position on the reverse side of the tape if it is determined that the originally scanned side is fall.
