The second one is now ready to ship. 

I have owned just about every professional reel to reel and nothing comes even close to this model.  It is truly a work of engineering and art.

Two track analogue transportable recorder
First introduced in 1981, the T-Audio is a two track analogue transportable recorder intended for studio recording. It is designed to be trolley-mounted. With programmable combinations of up to 4 different tape speeds / EQ settings it can be entirely customized to different tape formulations, speeds and equalization parameters. Using a Twin-capstan tape transport system, it handles master tapes with a delicacy not before seen in a studio recorder.

KEY FEATURES
Initially it was a stereo recorder / player aimed at the disk mastering industry. A monophonic model was also developed. A twin track version with an independent erase head for each track, and was aimed at the radio broadcast industry.

In 1984 a full time coded SMPTE / EBU version was introduced and became the industry standard for audio transfers for film applications around the world. The different models, although mechinically very similar, were easily identifiable by the removable control panel or “keyboard” mounted on the front. (The machine in the above picture is equipped with the TACA-TC keyboard).

The T-Audio manages rells up to 10.5 inches in diameter and can be equipped with a magnitude of different options and accessories for many different applications.

Different models were:
NTA-2S – Stereo Model
NTA-2M – Monophonic version
NTA-2B – Broadcast Model
NTA-2TC – SMPTE Time code model
NTA-3TCN – Time code without internal chase synchronizer
NTS-3TCS – Time code with internal chase synchronizer
NTA-3TCR – Time code with internal chase synchronizer and RS-422 serial contriol

The mechanics of all T-Audio machines are principally the same.
