You couldn't just listen to the same music track on repeat - you had to rewind at the end before you could listen to it again.
Interestingly, 8-Tracks didnt need to be rewound, they could keep continuously playing and it would loop back on its own.
Was there a pause while it re-wound the tape?
No, the tape is an endless loop, the end is the same as the beginning.
I still use my old quadrphonic 8-track for my speaker amp, though the 8-track tapes themselves are all worn out.
I keep "Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk" by Meco loaded in the player, but I haven't tried playing it in years out of fear.
It was neat though because the 4 channels were different layered tracks, so you could custom mix the music as it played using the quadraphics.
