Abstract
A changing apparatur for recording media has a rotatable magazine which houses a plurality of sloping storage slots in which recording media can be housed. The storage slots overlap one another in the circumferential direction of the magazine. A selector rotates the magazine until a desired storage slot is disposed in a loading position. A loading mechanism transfers a recording medium between the storage slot which is at the loading position and a pick-up which reads the information recorded in the recording medium.
