Model Details

The VPR-200 was a simplified version of the VPR-300. It was designed more for everyday tape room operations than for production. As such, it did not have the extensive editing capability of the VPR-300. Although the VPR-200 uses exactly the same transport as the VPR-300, it has been said that the transports were constructed with parts that were slightly 'looser' in mechanical and electrical tolerances than the parts that went into the VPR-300's. (Most of the electronics are interchangeable, however.) The softare has built-in limits not found in the VPR-300, such as only 60 X search speed. The control panel also had a lot more 'hard' controls and meters, and relied less on the display. Last, but not least, there are built in monitor speakers in the VPR-200 thant are not present in the VPR-300.
