Somewhere there was a thread that diverged in to these, as I remember, but I can't find it.
Owen, I'd be happy for this to be merged if you can find it.
This little Denon system had one, seems to be numbered differently in different countries. From mid '90's I think.
I've got F1 instead of F10, but it seems identical.
From
"The UDR-F10 cassette deck continues with the horizontal loading cassette drawer used in the previous systems and therefore closely resembles the CD player in appearance—almost to the point of confusion! In the interests of tape stability Denon have dropped the auto-reverse facility in this model and concentrated on producing near-CD quality by including the Dolby HX-Pro headroom extension system as well as Dolby B and C noise reduction. A rotary record level control now appears among the usual panel buttons, controlling tape motion, and the display includes twin bar-graph level indicators with red 'over' sections. There is also a four-digit linear counter which has a remaining time mode which is useful for assembling a recording. Extras include a Record Mute button and a CD SRS (Synchro Recording System) button which activates both the deck and the linked CD player to start recording."
Yeah, I bought Sony Metal-XR back in those days, also TDK SA-90 which I still have 10 of even after selling as many,
That tape hauled out for the photo would have been recorded from an LP, I still have the LP. I think no Dolby used on that tape.
Here's the album:
Enjoy! ;=})
