is indicated. The meter on the far left shows
the level of the Left channel of the stereo signal, while
the second meter from the left shows the level of the

of the recording level.
4 TRK Position:
Set the switch in this position to display the level of

There are 14 LED indicators in each meter which show
a range from - 20dB to + 5dB. During recording, setting
levels high (but below the point where the recording
becomes distorted) will ensure the greatest dynamic
range with the lowest possible noise. An ideal point is
when the LED indicators for 0dB and above flash occa-
sionally.
During stereo signal level indication, the actual
specified output from the ST OUT jacks
is
(at a 50K ohm load) when the LED
indicators start to
flash at 0dB.
