Intro Check - Teac R-919X Bedienungsanleitung

recording level and bias independently for
the left and right channels to assure opti-
mum use of any type of tape.
1. Load the tape on which you want to
record.
2. Press the PAUSE button, then press the
RECORD and the » (Play) buttons
simultaneously. (On the R-919X, if the
reverse play button < is pressed together
with the RECORD button, calibration
adjustment is impossible.)
3. Press the CAL START button. The re-
cording of the internal calibration signal
starts, and the LEVEL indicator lights
above the Calibration LEVEL controls.
5. Press the CAL START button again. The
BIAS indicator above the Calibration
BIAS controls lights.
6. Adjust the BIAS controls in the same
way as LEVEL (in step 4.).
7. Press the <4 (rewind) button to
release the calibration adjustment mode
and return to the calibration start point.
8. Start recording with the BIAS and
LEVEL controls in the positions to
which they have just been set.
Notes:
eWhen recording without calibration ad-
justment, be sure to set the LEVEL and
BIAS controls to the center click posi-
tions.
Before releasing the calibration mode, the
values set in calibration can be checked by
pressing the CAL START button again.
Pressing the STOP button also releases the
calibration adjustment mode.
e Due to the characteristics of metal tape,
the deck cannot be calibrated for opti-
mum response with this type of tape. This
is not a malfunction.
e With some tapes, the "0" dB point on the
Peak Level Meter may not be set by the
above calibration operation. In such a
case, adjust the calibration controls so
that the PEAK LEVEL METER reaches
between —2 and +2 dB.
¢ During calibration adjustment, the signal
from the LINE IN jacks will be automati-
cally cut off.
CD LEVEL CHECK Facility
The CD LEVEL CHECK function let you
confirm the input level of signals from a CD
player by raising the sensitivity of the PEAK
LEVEL METER, while fast-forwarding the
CD player to search the peak value recorded
on the disc (to be recorded).
Note:
eThis function is available only with CD
players equipped with a manual search
function so that slightly muted but
audible sound can be heard.
1. Set the Input Selector (or Rec Selector)
of the amplifier to the CD position.
2. Press the CD LEVEL CHECK "SET"
button in the stop mode; the indicator
lights.
At the same time, the Auto Monitor
indicator is changed to SOURCE auto-
matically.
3. Start the CD player and set it to the
fast-forward mode (audible manual
search mode).
At this time, the PEAK LEVEL METER
shows the signal input from the CD
player.
4. Adjust the input level with the recording
level controls.
5. To release the CD Level Check mode,
press the CD LEVEL CHECK "RESET"
button.
Muiti-Counter Function
With the multi-counter facilities incorporat-
ed in the unit, there are two different
display modes available, depending on the
setting of the COUNTER MODE button.
Tape Counter Mode: The counter functions
as a conventional tape counter.
TRT Counter mode: The counter functions
as a tape-run-time counter, measuring tape
travel in minutes and seconds.
Using as a Tape Counter
Using the COUNTER MODE button, call up
the tape counter mode; a 4-digit display will
appear. Its function is identical to that of
Conventional tape indexing counters. Dur-
ing forward recording (included record
muting), playback and fast-forward, the
Counter counts upwards as the tape moves
from left to right, and downwards during
reverse modes and rewind as the tape moves
from right to left. The indicated numerals
are not related to time lapse and are not
compatible with the counter readings of
other cassette decks. One typical example
of using this display in the conventional
tape counter mode is: First load a cassette
and before recording, press the COUNTER
CLEAR button to reset the counter to
0000". Then note the counter reading at
the beginning of each piece of music to facil-
itate locating a particular selection when
you wish to play it back.
Using as a TRT Counter
Using the COUNTER MODE button, call up
the tape-run-time mode; a colon appears
between the 2nd and 3rd digit. In this
mode, tape travel is measured in increasing
minutes and seconds while the tape is
running at normal speed during recording
{including record muting) and playback.
Counting stops during rewind and fast-
forward. This function can be used to
Measure the approximate length of a re-
Corded song or to make a calculated estima-
tion of how much tape is left.
"Visible" and "Invisible" Counters
Both counter modes are switchable at any
time, with the one selected appearing on the
display and the other functioning in mem-
ory. For example, when the conventional
tape counter is selected with the COUNTER
MODE button, counting of the tape-run-
time also takes place and its reading can be
called up at any time by pressing the COUN-
TER MODE button. Pressing the COUNTER
CLEAR button resets only the counter
which is visible. Both counters, "visible"
and "invisible" are reset when power is
switched off.
INTRO CHECK
This facility makes searching for a specific
tune much easier by continuously detecting
the beginning of each tune.
1. Press the INTRO CHECK button.
2. The deck will fast-forward to the begin-
ning of a tune, play about the first 10
seconds, and fast-forward to the begin-
ning of the next tune, where the cycle
starts over.
3. To cancel intro check function, press the
STOP button or during the 10 seconds
playback press PLAY.
(V-970X)
4. If the STOP is not pressed, the intro
check function is released when the tape
reaches the end stop.
(R-919X)
5. If STOP is not pressed, the intro check
function is released depending on the
setting of the REVERSE MODE button.
==: Released when tape reaches the end
stop.
=>: Released when tape reach the end
of the reverse side.
c>: Released after completing one full
loop of the tape after the initial
side.
Notes:
Pressing the INTRO CHECK button is pos-
sible in any tape operation mode except
play-pause and record-pause.
e During intro check, if any tape operation
button except REC MUTE is pressed, the
intro check function is canceled and the
Corresponding mode is entered.
e For the intro check function to work pro-
perly, there must be a blank of at least 4
seconds or more between tunes.
