They're both reel to reel players...?

What's the point you're trying to make?

No. But the Studer has had its lower panel Photoshopped and flipped into a horizontal mirror image.

Usually they look like this:

Nice!

Obviously, both the Studer and Tascam use English, not Japanese or German/French/Italian/Romansh, so they must have both copied Ampex.
