I also had a Teac 4-track with 15” reels. I still have it but I haven’t dared to try any of the old tapes, and I’m sure the rollers would have flat spots. It had an outrigger sound-on-sound attachment with push buttons to route signals to combine a signal with a prior recording, so you could do multitrack recording up to a point when the sound quality would degrade.
