A common thing to mention is the auto-reverse deck from Nakamichi seen in the movie 9 1/2 weeks. It’s also mentioned in this video. It was used in the RX-202 RX-303 and RX-505 Here is a video showing it in action. [ Ссылка ]
Loads of people have insisted I mention that amongst the other auto-reverse mechanisms, you could use a four track head so the tape can be played in either direction, this solution is commonly seen in small *players* like Walkman and car stereos.
NOTE: 4 track cassette deck heads are not common in recorders and they weren't available in 1972.
