RECORDING LEVEL ADJUSTMENT (DECK 2)
The adjustments of the recording level with the SYNCHRO
START
switch released to the SEQ. PLAY position on
DECK 2 have a great
effect on the recording result. It is im-
portant that ,t'he level be set as high as possible so that it is
very
close to the saturation level if you want to make a
recording with minimal distortion and tape hiss.
While observing the INPUT LEVEL indicators, adjust the
recording level with the INPUT LEVEL controls as follows:
• Optimum Recording Level:
Adjust the recording level so that all the indicators up
to "0 dB" light during the loudest portion of your
recording. (No practical problems are posed even if all
the indicators up to "+3 dB" light momentarily.)
•
Excessively High Recording Level:
If all
the indicators up to "+6 dB" light, this may result
in distorted sound being recorded on the tape.
•
Excessively Low Recording Level:
If all the
indicators up to "-10 dB" light momentarily,
this may result in excessive nOise being recorded on
the tape.
