Braun Atelier cassette deck C3
Quote from the Braun brochure from back then:
"Thanks to its quartz-controlled direct drive, the C3 achieves synchronization values that were previously reserved for large reel devices. Separate recording and playback sound head systems for rear tape control. Dolby NR "B" and "C" also separate for recording and playback (monitor mode and "back to back" during playback). For particularly high-quality recordings, the C3 also works with double tape speed ().5 cm/s). The Memory + Repeat functions are possible via the 4-digit electric tape length counter. Autospace and Musicfinder simplify operation. The functions selected using the buttons in the slider are shown on the illuminated display on the front. Timer operation is possible with an external timer. The C3 can be remote-controlled by future control units via its own data bus."
