Home Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

Otari question - the other tension

I know there are adjustments for brake tension and capstan/pinch roller pressure, but haven't found any adjustment for tape tension. My 5050BII2 clearly has too much tension on the take-up side and I'd love to figure out how to adjust that down a bit.

Any clue how to do that?

Thanks,
WW
