Thanks for your input Dave
Although I have to say I’m still struggling with the physics of the capstan to pinch wheel effect
As far as I’m aware the pinch wheel is to add pressure to the capstan and tape
During play back
therefore it’s likely to deform slightly anyway although this is likely to be a very small amount
Also If I’m correct the pinch wheel is being
driven by the capstan and therefore just along for the ride so to speak
I’m confused or what ?
