Abstract
A magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus is proposed wherein a hook arm is pivoted by a free end of one of two pivot arms when the pivot arms are urged by an inserted cassette and are pivoted by a predetermined angular interval, and the hook arm is disengaged from one of the link arms causing the cassette holders to descend when the hook arm is pivoted by a predetermined angular interval, thereby setting the cassette in the recording/play mode. The descent timing of the cassette is predetermined, and the cassette can be stably set in the correct recording/reproduction position.
