PROPER RECORDING LEVEL _
A too high recording level can saturate the tape and cause distortion. On the other hand, if recording levels are set
too low, soft passages will be marked by residual noise. Proper recording level is the single most important factor for
making well balanced recordings.
The tape select indicators- TYPE-I, TYPE-II and TYPE· N provide guidelines for the maximum allowable recording levels
for each tape type. Adjust the INPUT LEVEL controls while checking the FL PEAK METER.
Guideline for maximum recording level
Normal tape
+ 1 dB levels on peaks
(TYPE
[ )
Cr02 tape
+ 3 dB levels on peaks
(TYPE II)
I
Metal tape
+5 dB levels on peaks
(TYPE IV)
Note: Optimum recording levels can differ depending
on program sources or the type of tape used.
Make trial recordings using the simultaneous
monitoring. Refer to the description under
"MONITOR BUTTON".

The left and right channels readings of the PEAK METER can differ due to variations in input signal levels. In such ~
cases, adjust the individual channels of the BALANCE control until identical meter readings are obtained for both channels.
