RECORDING AND PLAYBACK BY TAPE DECKS
Connecting a Tape Deck
Connect the input terminals of a tape deck to TAPE
REC terminals of the amplifier, and its output termi-
nals to the PLAY terminals.
The DIN socket can be used only if your tape deck
is equipped with a similar socket. It is manu-
factured according to the German industrial standard
to permit tape recording and playback from a single
cable with a special 5-pin plug on each end.
Should you wish to connect more than two tape
decks, you may connect it to the 4-CH ADAPTOR
terminals. The 2-CH OUTPUT terminals have the
same electrical function as the REC terminals, while
the INPUT terminals are equivalent to the PLAY
terminals.
Note: Do not connect the tape deck(s) to the pin
jack terminals and DIN socket simultaneously.

Procedure for Copying a Recorded
Tape
Oo If you want to copy a recorded tape, connect one
tape deck for playback to the TAPE terminals, the
other for recording to the 4-CH ADAPTOR termi-
nals.
© By operating the 4-Channel Adaptor Switch, you
can monitor the recording as you copy it from one
tape deck to the other. To monitor the recording
before it is copied, keep the 4-Channel Adaptor
Switch at OUT. To monitor the recording after it
is copied, push down to IN.
Notes about Recording
1. Monitoring of recorded sound is possible only if
the recording tape deck is equipped with separate
heads for recording and playback. Otherwise, set
the Tape Monitor Switch to SOURCE and listen to
the original input sound before it is recorded.
