Abstract
An apparatus for recording and reproducing video and audio signals in either analog or digital form. The heads are arranged to conform with existing analog standards, such as VHS, and yet are also able to record in digital form in adjacent non-overlapping tracks. In a preferred embodiment, one pair of heads is arranged with a small azimuth angle (+/-6 degrees), and another pair is arranged with a larger second azimuth angle (+/-30 degrees), conforming to the VHS standard, but the head width and location are modified compared to the standard such as to allow recording and reproducing both VHS as well as digital tapes.
