SETTING THE RECORDING LEVEL
Adjustment of the recording level is a key point in making record-
ings with good sound quality. It is necessary to set the recording
level as high as possible in order to optimize the signal-to-noise
ratio and expand the dynamic range. However, if the recording
level is set excessively high, the recorded sound will be distorted.
On the other hand, if in order to avoid distortion the recording
level is set too low, tape hiss noise will become noticeable. If the
maximum level of the sound to be recorded is set right at the
limit {the maximum recording level) of the tape, the characteris-
tics of the tape will be fully utilized and good sound quality will
result, The maximum recording level of a tape depends on its
type, so it is necessary to make adjustments to match the type of
tape in use.
With normal (NORM) and chrome (CrO.) tapes, use the REC
LEVEL control 8) to adjust the recording level so that the +5 dB
indicator on the level display lights occasionally. With metal
(METAL) tapes, adjust the recording level so that the +8 dB in-
dicator on the level display lights occasionally.
The level meter provided on this unit has a peak hold function.
This function holds the peak level for 2 seconds to facilitate ad-
justment of the recording level
Actually, the optimum recording level also varies slightly accord-
ing to the type of music or brand of tape. To fully utilize tape
characteristics and make even better quality recordings, it is also
important for you to listen to your recordings to check the play-
back sound and make adjustments if necessary.
Recording balance adjustment
Use the REC BALANCE control (9) to compensate for unbalance
of the left and right channels due to the source to be recorded or
equipment to be used. Rotating the control in the L direction in-
creases the level of the left channel. Rotating the control in the R
direction increases the level of the right channel.
