Original Product DESCRIPTION:
The Teac A-3440 was the first multitrack tape deck aimed at the consumer market. A direct descendant of the renowned A-3340S, a machine that had been targeted for the quadraphonic market which had not flourished.
The A-3440 had some new features as well as improved specifications. The former record Mode, Sync and Monitor switches were now rearranged into two groups, Function and Output select, effectively reducing the number of switching operations required to set up record and sync channel arrangements. A newly employed highly stable CD servo-controlled capstan motor reduced wow and flutter to 0.04% at 15 ips and 0.06% at 7½ ips – a third of the A-3340S
