A new code format has been developed considering the tape speed and track density of digital audio recorders. The tape speed is 38.1 cm/sec (15 ips) and 4 tracks per channel are very practical format for professional tape recorders. Using this format, 2 channel master deck of 1/4" tape to 24-32 channel 1" tape deck are developed by a newly developed thin film magnetic head. Concrete code configurations and their potentials are also described.
