One feature is an integral electronic switching arrangement which permits silent and smooth change from the record to the playback mode and vice versa by operation of an external single pole switch. Other features include a circuit for driving a recording level meter, an automatic audio level control circuit (ALC) and integral voltage and current regulators.
