Note that for series playback it is not possible to select different
types of Dolby NR for DECK 1 and DECK 2. It is recommended that
you use two tapes which were recorded using the same type of
Dolby NR (or both recorded without Dolby NR).
Dolby noise-reduction
The Dolby noise-reduction system is designed to effectively reduce
the annoying high-frequency “hissing” noise which can occur with
cassette tapes. During recording, the system functions to increase
the high-frequency sound level, and then, during playback, that
same portion is weakened to bring it back to the previous level.
This unit includes two types of Dolby noise-reduction systems, the
Dolby B NR-type and C NR-type.
Dolby B-type noise-reduction
Noise is reduced to about one-third.
Use this system when playing back tapes recorded by the Dolby-B
noise-reduction system, such as prerecorded music tapes, etc.
Dolby C-type noise-reduction
Noise is reduced to about one-tenth.
Use this system for the recording of sound sources that have a wide
dynamic range and good tone quality, such as FM broadcasts of
live performances, etc., and for playing back such tapes.
Dolby HX-Pro headroom extension
This system improves the maximum output level of the tape’s high
frequency range, allowing recording without reducing the source’s
high frequency range.
Along with the unit's noise reduction systems, this system greatly
extends dynamic range.
