These connections will enable you to play back your stereo tapes. To make a stereo recording connect your recorder as follows: Connect the left input of your tape recorder to the TA224 LEFT TAPE OUT receptacle. Similarly connect the right input of your recorder to the RIGHT TAPE OUT receptacle located on the rear panel. This will enable you to make a stereophonic recording with the proper recording equalization as determined by your recorder, while simultaneously monitoring the program with the proper tone control, contour and loudness setting. The recording level from the TA224 TAPE OUT receptacles is approximately 1 volt and is unaffected by the tone and loudness controls to assure a flat" recording signal. Connecting Your Monophonic Tape Recorder: When using a monophonic tape recorder with the TA224, connect the recorder output to either the LEFT or RIGHT AUX input receptacle. This will enable you to play back your monophonic tapes. If your tape recorder is a stereo playback-monophonic record, connect the output as described in the previous paragraph, but connect the input as described below. Connect the input of your monophonic tape recorder to either the LEFT or RIGHT TAPE OUT receptacle on the rear of the TA224 chassis. This will enable you to make a monophonic tape recording with the proper equalization as determined by your recorder, while simultaneously monitoring the program with the proper tone control, contour and loudness setting. The program material you wish to record is selected by the FUNCTION SELECTOR and TUNER SELECTOR on the front panel. To record a radio program, set the FUNCTION SELECTOR to "TUNER" and the TUNER SELECTOR to either FM, FM-AFC, AM-FM or AM. To tape monophonic records, set the TUNER SELECTOR to "OFF" and the FUNCTION SELECTOR to PHONO HI-LO. If you are using a stereo cartridge (and you are making a monophonic recording), set the MODE switch to "MONOPHONIC". If you are using a monophonic cartridge, set the MODE switch to RIGHT or LEFT relating to the input receptacle used. Connecting An External Self-Powered Multiplex Adapter: In those localities where FM multiplex broadcasting is available, connect the adapter to the two MULTI IN input receptacles located on the rear panel. FM program material for the adapter is supplied from the output receptacle labeled MULTI OUT. Follow the instructions supplied with the adapter for complete hookup information. OPERATING THE MODEL TA224 AS AN INTEGRATED RECEIVER Every control on a well designed and honestly considered high fidelity instrument has a specific useful function related to each of the other controls. A brief explanatory note on the relationship of the various front panel controls will doubtless prove useful in organizing and clarifying them for you. Bass and Treble Tone Controls: The BASS and TREBLE tone controls on the TA224 provide the full range of tonal adjustment necessary for stereo high fidelity listening. The tone control
