On a belgian auction site, someone is selling a 'modify recorder'

He says (translated):

TCD-1500 MODIFY RECORDER.

"Can be used for normal playback. However, to record it is a modify recorder.
Whatever is present on the tape will NOT be erased. The new signal will be added to the already present music without changing that already present music.

Very useful to modify a mix fast and efficient.

..."

It is a GoldStar TCD-1500
Strange story, he? It is just a normal tape deck, with an erase head.

Sounds like it's been modified to overdub instead of erasing pre-existing material as it records.
 
That would work if it were a three head machine that allowed you to listen to the tape as you were recording on it. Although the problem with two track sound on sound recordings is with each additional overdub, the quality of the tape degrades quickly. Since that appears to be a two head unit, I really don't see the purpose.
