Abstract

In a helical scan magnetic tape recorder, a rotary magnetic head scanner includes odd and even azimuth data reproduce heads and odd and even azimuth sense heads on the head wheel to effect automatic tracking. The odd and even azimuth sense heads establish a tracking error signal when reproduced signal envelopes are not equal. The error signal is used to control a capstan servo to maintain correct data head-to-track positioning.
