This paper reviews some of the important factors influencing the overall phase nonlinearity of magnetic recording as applied to audio usage, and the effect of these nonlinearities on multiple generation copying. A new record equalizing scheme is described which provides a considerable degree of inherent phase correction and which produces a recording whose phase characteristics are compatible with normal reproducing equalizing standards.
