Summary:A control device for controlling the transport of a tape within a tape transport system, the tape transport system having a head being operable to read data from and/or write data to the tape, an outboard reel and an inboard reel, wherein the tape is moveable from the outboard reel to the inboard reel in forward direction or from the inboard reel to the outboard reel in reverse direction, wherein the control device is adapted to generate control signals to control the velocity of the outboard reel and the velocity of the inboard reel as a function of a primary velocity of the tape at the head and a secondary velocity of the tape at the inboard reel and/or a secondary velocity of the tape at the outboard reel.
