ADJUSTING

THE

RECORDING

LEVEL

The adjustment of the recording level is the

most

important factor in

achieving good recording results. A high level provides a good signak

to-nolse ratio and dynamlc range, but an

excessively

high level dis-

torts the sound. If

the

level is set too low for fear of sound distortion,

irritating tape hiss will

mar the

recording.

The

characteristics of tapes

differ depending on the manufacturer

and the type of tape. Set the

REC

LEVEL

control so

that

the level

meter's

"-3

dB"

indicator

lights

steadily

most

of the time. No harm will be done if the

"0

dB" indica-

tor lights momentarily at beaks.

When

recording without

Dolby NR,

set the REC

LEVEL

control so that the

"-3

dB

•

indicator lights, and

the

"0

dB" indicator lights occasionally at

beaks.

NOTES:

•

The

optimal

recording level

may

differ somewhat

depending on

the audio source and type of tape used. In order

to obtain

the

best possible

results,

set the

recording

level after actual testing.

Listen

to

your

recordings,

and adjust the level as necessary.

•

The

level meter

may

react

differently

during recording and play-

back of

the

same

tape.

This

is

due

to

differences in

tape

sensitiv-

ity, and

creates

no problem.
