Abstract
A tape recorder mode selector device equipped with a set of mode selecting members for operations such as record, play, fast-forward and rewind, a tape selector member and a capstan for selectively driving one of a plurality of cassette tapes loaded parallel to one another thereon. A tape selecting slide member interlocking with the tape selector member includes a projection or engaging element. A rotator selector is provided. The engaging element blocks the pinch rollers for the cassette tapes other than the cassette tape selected by the tape selector member from being pressed against the capstan, and the rotator selector causes a fast rotator to be selectively engaged with a fast-forwarding or rewinding reel rest of the selected cassette tape, thereby driving the selected cassette tape in response to the selection of these operating modes.
