Recording level
The recording level is strongly related to sound quality,
distortion, S/N ratio, frequency response, etc. When it is
very high, S/N ratio is improved but distortion and fre-
quency response are degraded. When it is too low, the
opposite results. The best recording levels can be deter-
mined by referring to the PEAK LEVEL METER.
It is easy
to record a disk or FM broadcast because their sound le-
vel is limited to a certain extent. However, it is difficult
to set the recording level when recording live sounds or

Quick re-recording
If you accidentally include unwanted
material while you
are recording an FM broadcast, etc., you can go back to
the beginning of that section of tape to start over again
by using the following procedure.
A blanc section of more than 4 seconds is necessary before
the beginning of the tape recording.
1. When
the tape is moving
in the forward
direction,
press the rewind key (<<). The recording stops, the
tape is rewound to the beginning of the recording, a
blank section of about 2 seconds is left and the tape
stops.
2. When the tape moves in the reverse direction, press
the fast forward key (®). The recording stops, tape
is rewound to the beginning of the recording, a blank
section of about 2 seconds is left and the tape stops.
3. To resume recording, make a 4-second blank section
by pressing the REC/ARM
key twice, then press the
same key again.
Note:
if you
use this function
at the beginning
of the recording, this
will not often operate normally.
