TEAC A-360S Stereo Cassette Deck Player
All parts were made from scratch in Vue Studio and I converted everything to OBJ format so that I could finish everything in Daz Studio.Textures are self-made and others are Daz shaders to get everything correct.
About the A-360S.The TEAC A-360 is a stereo cassette deck with Dolby B noise reduction, it was introduced by TEAC in 1974 and discontinued 2 years later in 1976. The main features of the TEAC A-360 are: 2 heads, analog 3 digit tape counter and memory stop, tape type selection with support for normal tapes, belt driven single-capstan transport.
Typical of this deck is the 70's top loading layout with the cassette compartiment located on the left side of the deck. Tape eject is operated mechanically and the cassette needs to be placed with the side to be played facing forward in the cassette well. Level meters used on the A-360 are analog needle VU reading meters with peak indicator for easy adjustment of optimum recording level. Mechanical transport controls for reliable A-360 transport function selection.
The Dolby-B system reduces tape hiss on tapes recorded on the A-360 by as much as 10 dB at the highest frequencies. To make live recordings this deck has 2 microphone inputs to connect microphones with a jack connector. For undisturbed listening a jack connector for a pair of stereo headphones is supplied.
