RCA Model SCP-2 taperecorders consist of a TCT-2 tape transport andan R.S-l?6 ampli-
fier. The Model SCP-2 tape recorder plays and records both monaural and stereo recordings.
A tape cartridge is required.
This recorder has an automatic shut-off to stop the mechanism when the tape is wound
from the supply reel to the take-up reel, or vice versa. The tape transport controls are the
push-button type.
The Model SCP-2 recorder has a safety switch to prevent accidental erasure of a pre-
recorded tape.
The recorder has one tape speed, 3 3/ 4 ips. When a fully loaded four-track cartridge is
used, theplaying andrecording timesare onehour forastereo tapeand twohours fora monaural
tape.
The Model SCP-2 tape recorder operates on II0-120 volts, 60 cycles AC only.

4. Remove the two microphones and tape cartridges
from their storage compartment.
Stop
Depressing this button stops the mechanism in
any mode of operation.
Fast ButtonF
When t}tis button is depressed, the tape rapidly
advances to any desired section.
{ Fast Button
When this button is depressed, the tape rapidly
rewinds onto the supply reel.
Play-Record Button
Depressing this button sets the tape in motion at
3 3/ 4 ips. This control is used with the Play-Record
control on the amplifier.
Forward Automatic Shutoff Pin
In the Forward position, this control automati-
cally shuts off the unit when the tape reaches the end
of the hub.
Rewind Automatic Shutoff Pin
In the Rewind position, this control automatically
shuts off tie unit when the tape reaches the end of the
hub.
Guide Bar Switch
The pin on this switch fits into the cutout in the
cartridge, and thus prevents accidental erasure of
prerecorded tapes.
0n-Off Loudness
Pulling this knob up turns the power on. After
the unit has been started, the knob may be pushed
down; the unit will t}len automatically shut off at the
end of the tape.
Rotating the knob clockwise increases the loud-
ness; counterclockwise, decreases the loudness.
Tone This control regulates thetone on both channels
simuLtaneously. Turning it clockwise fromthe normal
"N" positionon theknob increases thehigh frequency;
counterclockwise, increases the low frequency. This
control is used during playback only.
Record-Play
To record, first depress the Record-Play push
button on the tape deck. When any other push buttons
on the tape deck are depressed to change the mode of
operation, the Record-Play control automatically re-
turns to the Play position. Do not turn thls control
whileplayinga prerecordedtape cartridge. A warning
buzz will be heard if this is attempted.
F unction (A ux-Str-lt4on )
When this control is turned to the Aux position,
the internal speakers of the tape recorder can be used
as a left-channel speaker system for a stereophonic
phonograph. When playing or recording stereophonic
tape cartridges, turn tie control to the Str position.
To play or record monaurally, turn it to Mon I or
Mon 2. Mon I plays tracks AI and Bl; Mon 2 plays
tracks A2 and 82.
Balance
This control regulates the Ioudness of the two
sound channels duri.ng playback. Midrange isthe nor-
mal position for the control. In monaural operation,
this control regulates the volume of Tracks A2 or 82
independently from the Loudness control. If the BaI-
ance control is correctly adjusted for stereophonic
operation, it need not be readjusted for monaural
operation.
l. With the cartridge assembled, push the brake
slide forward. This permits tire tape to be
pulled out so that it will be accessible.
2. Butt the two ends of the tape together.
3. Fasten the two ends with splicing tape. Trim
off the excessive tape evenly with the edge of
t}te recording tape.
4. Tighten the tape by turning the supply reel
clockwise or the take-up reel counterclockwise.
If it is necessary to disassemble the cartridge
