19824 📃
A4-folded four-page leaflet for the SHARP GF-490 “Searcher W”, August 1982. Same machine as the July edition, but this one puts APSS-WF front and center - the upgraded version of the automatic programme search that now stops the tape at exactly the right spot. Metal tape support is explicitly called out this time. The three-act structure carries over: ACT.1 for basic recording and playback, ACT.2 for APSS-WF auto-search, ACT.3 for one-touch direct editing. Both colorways - silver GF-490 and red GF-490(R) - are shown on the cover, both at ¥63,000.
- 倍速編集 - high-speed dubbing - records at double speed, halving the time needed to copy a cassette
- ダイレクト編集 - direct one-button editing - ACT 3: a single button starts copying the selected segment
- APSS-WF - APSS with auto-stop: automatic program search that stops the tape at the target track
- 多重録音 - multi-track recording: overdubbing new audio onto an existing recording
- 二重再生 - dual playback: simultaneous operation of both cassette decks
