What I don’t get:
Does this recorder use normal „compact cassettes“ (alias MCs)? Or does it use cassettes with perforated tape as shown in this article on page three? https://issuu.com/filmmaker8.com/docs/t ... uper8_1?ff
Yes, the 116R model uses compact cassettes. No perfo magnetic film.
There is a provision for pilotone track.
The one in the article should be an earlier one. Its dated 1974.
116R was on the market in 1976.
