BASIC OPERATIONS
Auto tape selector
Detection holes on a cassette tape distinguish between different kinds
of tape. The ideal recording bias and equalization are automatically set
depending on the kind of tape.

Recording level control
Recording level adjustment is the most important factor in achieving
good recording results. A high recording level helps to improve the
signal-to-noise ratio and dynamic range, but if excessively high it will
cause distortion. On the other hand, if the level is set too low out of
fear of distorting the sound, an irritating tape hiss noise will become
noticeable in the recording. Although tape characteristics differ
depending on the maker and kind of tape, even with tapes of the same
position, you can get the most of any tape and obtain good recordings
if you adjust the recording level to a value close to the characteristics
of the tape.
Recording muting
Use this function to create the 4 seconds blanks required for the music
search operation. ,
¢ Press MUTE ( O ) switch @) during recording, and the unit will stop
recording sound on the tape for about 4 seconds and will enter the
recording pause mode.
© To create a blank more than 4-seconds long, hold the switch down
for the desired time. The unit will enter the recording pause mode
when you release the switch.
¢ To resume recording, press PAUSE (00) switch @).
The Dolby NR Systems
The Dolby NR Systems are designed to reduce high-frequency tape hiss
noise generated during playback.
The level of low-volume, high-frequency sounds is increased during
recording, and decreased by the same amount during playback to restore
the original level. At the same time, high-frequency noise (the most
easily perceived by the human ear) is attenuated.
Dolby B-type NR system reduces high-frequency tape noise, widening
the dynamic range. Dolby C-type NR system is even more powerful,
applying the noise reduction effect to a wider spectrum of frequencies
from the middle range.
NOTE:
Avoid playing back tapes reduced using the Dolby NR system with
DOLBY NR switch in the OFF position, or tapes recorded without Dolby
NR system with DOLBY NR switch in the ON position (B-type or C-type),
since this does not allow faithful reproduction of the original sound.
Erasing
If you record on a tape, previously recorded material is erased. Perform
the following operations if you only want to erase.
1. Load the tape to be erased in the deck.
2. Set REC LEVEL control (2 to (MIN).
3. Start recording.
CASSETTE TAPE RELAY PLAYBACK
Relay playback is possible from Deck | to Deck Il, or from Deck II to
Deck |. When playback ends on one deck, the other deck automatically
starts playing.
1. Load the playback tapes into Deck | and Deck ll.
2. Set DOLBY NR switch (3 to the same position used for recording.
¢ The tapes on Deck | and Deck I] should both have been recorded
with or without Dolby NR, and you should be sure that the switch
is in the same position it was in during recording.
3. Select REV MODE switch (0.
==: Deck | (Il) reverse (<1) or forward (> )-— Deck II (I) reverse
(<1) or forward (c).
=>: Deck | forward (ft) — Deck | reverse (<1) — Deck II forward
{t>) > Deck Il reverse ( <1).
While one deck is playing, you can change the tape in the
other deck for extended relay play.
ec.) : Deck | forward (Cf) > Deck | reverse (<1) — Deck II forward
{t>) —> Deck Il reverse (<1), repeated for 32 sides.
4. Press RELAY/SKIP switch (2).
"RELAY" lights in the display section.
5. Press the appropriate PLAY (> or <1) switch.
Press the switch on the deck that plays first.
To cancel relay playback, press RELAY/SKIP switch once more.
To stop during playback, press STOP ([)) switch on the deck that's
playing.
NOTE:
¢ /n relay playback, if there ia a blank space longer than about 15
seconds, the blank skip function operates, automatically skipping to
the start of the next song where playback resumes
¢ /n timer playback, playback is always relay.
