PRECAUTIONS
Always keep the heads clean. Dust and deposits of f oreign
matter on the heads will affect sound quality of recording and
playback. For maintenance, refer to page 8.
The Function Selector of the TC-366 cannot be locked
without threading tape, because the Automatic Shut.off
Mechanism is activated in that condition.
The Microphone lnputs and the Auxiliary lnputs of this
recorder can be used simultaneously for mixing To record
only through the Microphone lnputs, disconnect any input
source from the Auxiliary lnputs; and vice versa.
Turn the Function Selector to STOP position and switch the
power off when the recorder is not being used.
Keep the recorder in a well ventilated area and away from
any excessive heat.
Do not block the ventilation grille at the back of the recorder
as this may stop ventilation and cause excessive heat inside
the recorder.

OPERATION OF CONTROLS
Tape Speed Selector ITAPE SPEED]
7)l ips and 33,1 ips are ideal for recording music when best
sound quality is desired. Ij( ips is ideal for speech especially
when longer recording time is desired.
ln playback mode, set the tape speed corresponding to the
speed of the recorded tape.
. Change the tape speed only when the Function Selector is in
STOP position.
Tape Gounter
lndicates the approximate amount of tape used in recording or
playback. To reset the counter to [0000], press the Reset
Button at the left side of the counter.
lnstant Stop Lever ]NST STOPI
lnstantly stops tape motion while the recorder is in either record
or playback mode.
Pull the lever toward you until it locks in position. To release,
push it back slightly. The tape will immediately pick up normal
forward speed.
. When the Function Selector is turned to STOP position, the
lnstant Stop Lever will also be released.
Function Selector
Controls all tape motion.
FWD position ......to start the tape in either record or playback
mode.
STOP position......to stop the tape.
REW position ......1o rewind the tape.
FF position.........for fast forward tape motion.
Scrape Filter
Stops vibration of the tape, to eliminate tape modulation dis'
tortion and reduce flutter.
Tape Tension Regulator
Controlled by a guide pin located under the head cover. The
guide pin quickly responds to any subtle change of tape tension
so that a smooth, even flow of tape past the head assembley
is assured.
Automatic Shut-off Mechanism
Activated by a wire lever under the head cover. When the tape
is threaded, the tape contacts the lever and holds it in operating
position. lf the tape runs out or breaks, the lever will fall
forward and activates the shut-off mechanism which stops the
tape transport and turns the Function Selector to STOP position.
Noise Suppressor INOISE SUPPRESS]
When this switch is set to the ON position during playback,
the distracting high frequency noise such as record scratch or
tape hiss is removed from the program material. This sup-
pressor allows full pass-band for the major part of the audio
frequency range as it does not affect response frequencies
below 9 kHz.
Record Levers [REC]
For recording, pull the levers toward you, and while keeping
the levers in a Iocked position, turn the Function Selector to
FWD position. The lamps in the Level Meters will light, indicating
that the recorder is in record mode.
.When a monophonic program is desired, pull either L or R
lever toward you and turn the Function Selector to FWD
position.
Record Volume Controls IREC VOL]
For record volume level control, set the Monitor Switches to
SOURCE position and pull the Record Levers into locked posi'
tion. Then adjust the Record Volume Controls so that the
meters do not swing into the red area except on volume peaks.
The upper two knobs marked AUX are for adjusting the input
level through the Auxiliary lnputs; and the other two marked
MIC are for adjusting the input level through the Microphone
I nputs.
Level Meters [LEVEL]
While recording (when setting the Monitor Switches to SOURCE
position), the swing of the needles indicates the level of input
signals. During playback (when setting the Monitor Switches
to TAPE position), the meter indicates the output level at Line
O utp uts.
Monitor Switches IMONITOR]
For playback of tapes, set the switches to TAPE position. While
recording, the TAPE position is for tape monitoring and SOURCE
position is for source monitorlng. The switch L and the switch
R rnay be activated separately.
Tape Selector [TAPE SELECT]
When you use SLH (SONY Low-noise High-output) tape, set this
selector to SPECIAL position. For standard tapes, set the
.-selector to NlORMAL oosition.

8. At the end of the tape, set the Function Selector to STOP
position. To record on side 2 (track 4 and 2), do not
rewind the tape. Reverse reel positions and repeat step 7.
When side 2 recording is finished, do not rewind the tape but
reverse reel positions. Then the tape will be ready for playback
of tracks 1 and 3.
Monitor while recording
The professional feature of separate record and playback heads
permits monitoring of tape during recording by setting the
Monitor Switches to TAPE position.
With the use of a stereo headphone, in
of sou d tape is possible by setting th The source signal
switches are in TAPE position.
.When the amplifier being used is equipped with a tape
monitor selector, sourceT'tape comparison can be done with the
amplifier. ln such case, the Monitor Switches on the recorder
should be in TAPE position.
Monophonic Recording
The sequence of monophonic recording should be track 1,
track 4, track 3 and track 2. Monophonic recording employs
either channel left or right at one time. Therefore, when
changing from left channel to right channel, reconnect the
source signal to the right channel input, adjust the right Record
Volume Control, and while holding the right Record Lever in
locked position, set the Function Selector to the FWD position.
For orientation of recording track and channel, refer to the

. With the use of the independent Record Levers for each
channel, the TC-366 provides the facility to playback one
track (ex. track-1) while recording the other track (ex. track-3).
This feature will be ideal for language students who wish to
listen to a prerecorded lesson on one track while recording the
answers or repetition on the other track. Both tracks can later
be played back separately or simultaneously for comparison.

V
SOUND.ON-SOUND RECORDING
This means making a mixed recordiog on one tape track, com-
posed of a signal previously recorded on another track and'
a new external signal through one of the Microphone lnputs.
This facility of the TC-366 enables one person to record a duet,
a trio or other special effects.
Sound-on-sound recording on the right channel [L-R]
1. Record basic source material (A) on track I of the left
channel according to 'Monophonic Recording' on page 5,
and rewind the tape to the beginning.
2. Plug the supplied connecting cotd RK-74 into the Line
Output L and the Auxiliary lnput R of the TC.366.
. Be sure to use the plugs of the same color at both ends
of the connecting cord.
3. Plug an 8 ohm stereo headphone into the Headphone Jack,
and a low impedance microphone into Microphone lnput R.
4. Set the Monitor Switch R to SOURCE position. Adjust the
recording level after setting the left Record Volume Controls
to MIN position.
. Playback the tape and adjust level of the signal through
the Auxiliary Input R by using the Record Volume Control
AUX R and the right Level Meter. Rewind the tape.
. Lock the Record Lever R and adjust level of the signal
through Microphone lnput R by using the Record Volume
Control MIC R and the right Level Meter.
5. While keeping the Record Lever R in locked position, set
the Function Selector to FWD position and start recording

Through the left headphone, the playback of the basic
recording (A) on the left channel is heard; and through
the right headphone, the composite recording (A+B) is
heard. The composite signal (A+B) will be recorded on
track 3 of the right channel.
6. When the recording is finished, rewind tape to the beginning
and playback track 3.
. Be sure to re-set the Monitor Switch R to the TAPE posi-
tion for playback track 3. To listen through the head-
phone, set the Monitor Switch R to TAPE position and
the Switch L to SOURCE position.
Sound-on-sound recording on the left channel [R+L]
The mixed sound (A+B) can be recorded again onto track 1of

ERASING TAPE
The erase head operates in record mode, therefore every time
a recording is made, any previous recording on the tape is
automatically erased. A tape can also be erased without adding
a new recording as follows.
1. Thread the tape to erase.
2. Disconnect any input source from the recorder, and turn
all Record Volume Controls fully counterclockwise.
3. Set the recorder in record mode. Now the tape is being
erased. Tape speed of 7)( ips is recommended.
. For fast erasure, use a bulk eraser.
SPLICING TAPE
Use splicing tape and a pair of scissors.
. Do not use ordinary cellophane tape as it tends to dete'
riorate recording tapes.
. Also avoid using magnetized scissors or razor blades.
Magnetized instruments will cause a " click " or " pop " at
the splice during playback.
Neatly overlap the tapes to be spliced and cut the position
diagonally.
Place a piece of splicing tape on a flat surface. Then
place the two diagonal tape ends together on the splicing
tape, shiny side down.
. Be careful thet ends meet, but do not overlap.
Trim off the excess splicing tape.
MAINTENANCE
Dirty heads and tape path will cause:
. Loss of high frequency response which results in poor sound
quality
.Loss of sound volume in recording and playback
' Drop-out
. Unsatisfactory results in tape erasing
.lncrease of flutter and wow.
Therefore the mirror-like finish on the face of all heads and
tape path must be preserved to get optimum performance.
Generally cleaning heads after every B hours will be sufficient'
But it is recommended to clean carefully the heads and tape
path before starting a valuable recording.
Remove the head cover by pulling it up. Take the supplied
Head Cleaning Ribbon or a soft cloth and carefully wipe the
heads and other surfaces upon which the tape travels. when
the deposits are hard to remove, moisten the ribbon or the
cloth with a head cleaning solution or denatured alcohol and
repeat cleaning.
For easier access to clean the pinch roller, push backward the
wire lever of automatic shut-off mechanism and fix it there
with a string or so, and then set the Function Selector to FWD
position; and for the capstan, set the selector to FF position.
.Do not allow metallic materials near the heads.
. Discard the ribbon or cloth after use to prevent contamination
of the cleaning solution or alcohol remaining in the container.
