(1) During recording or playback operations, MEMORY
STOP can be used to locate a particular point on
the tape. At the desired point, reset the counter
to “MOLE”. With the MEMORY STOP button in the
“ON” position, the deck will stop at the “g8 00”
point (actually “— BO 02” and “DOLL") during
REWIND operations.

Therefore if a cassette tape with a large hub is

DOLBY B & C NOISE REDUCTION SYSTEM
M The Dolby noise reduction system substantially reduces
the tape background noise (hiss) inherent in the cassette
medium. Dolby B NR is most widely in use. However,
Dolby C NR is a much more recent development and
E The operating principle of Dolby C NR is similar to that
of Dolby B NR except for the encoding/decoding response
curves. The noise reduction effect obtained with Dolby
C NR is up to 20dB, compared to 10dB with Dolby B NR.
represents a significantly improvements over Dolby B NR.
B Tape background noise consists primarily of high frequency
information which is particularly annoying during soft
passages. The Dolby NR system increase the level of
low volume mid and high frequency signal during recording
and reduces the level of these signals by an identical!
amount during playback. As a result, the playback signal
is identical to the original source signal, but the level
of background noise generated by the tape is greatly
reduced.
In addition, Dolby C NR uses an anti-saturation network
and spectral skewing circuitry, for a significant improve-
ment in the dynamic range of the mid- to high-frequencies.
