HOW TO MAKE RECORDING
1. With the tape side to be recorded facing upward, insert the cassette
firmly into the cassette holder, and set it in place.
Check to make sure that the cassette has erasure prevention claws on
the upper edge.
2. Set the tape selector to appropriate position according to the type of
tape to be recorded.
Refer
to the Table
"Types
of Tapes
and
Positions of Tape Selector".
. To make recording in Dolby mode, set the Dolby switch to ON.
. Set the input selector to the desired recording source.
. Press the record button until it locks.
. Adjust the recording level with the record volume knob so that the
pointer of the VU meter indicates about OVU peak input.
7. While holding the record button down, press the play button (>). Both
buttons will be locked and the tape will be set in record mode.
To timely start recording, press and lock the pause button in advance,
lock the record button and play button and then release the pause
button.

SETTING
OF RECORDING
LEVEL
Recording level setting point depends on the type of tape and tape deck to be used.
Your
trial-and-error
will determine
optimum
recording
level.
This
model
uses
OVU
=
160
pwb/mm as a reference level which is about 4 dB down below 250 pwb/mm (previous rating)
in playback level.
The change in the reference level is based on the idea of effectively uti-
lizing the improved tape characteristics, such as S/N ratio, frequency response and dynamic
range.
Since the recording
level is about
4 dB down
below the previous level as a whole, it is
possible to make recording of better high frequency response with less clipping effects at
peak inputs, even when the recording level setting is performed in the usual manner.
In addition, S/N ratio is remarkably improved with the adoption of Dolby system that reduces
hissing noise in tape.
It should be noted that if a tape recorded at the level of OVU = 250 pwb/mm
is played by
your tape deck, the output level is increased by about 4 dB; in contrast with this, if a tape
recorded by your tape deck is played through another tape deck, the output level is reduced
by about 4 dB.
