Notes:
•
When the safety tabs are removed from a cassette tape, the
tape cannot be recorded even if you try. Make sure that both
tabs are still in place when performing full recording.
•
When the tape is played or recorded in the reverse direction
(side B), only side B is played back or recorded and then the
tape stops automatically.
It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record pre-
recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the
owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast
or cable programme and in any literary, dramatic, musical, or
artistic work embodied therein.
DDRP (Dynamics Detection Recording Processor) record-
ing
DDRP recording is performed with suitable JVC CD players and
the recording level adjustment is performed automatically.
Since recording level adjustment is performed automatically for
different types of tape (normal, CrO
2
and metal), the adjustment
of INPUT LEVEL control is not required.
Read the instruction book of your CD player carefully.
RECORDING LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the recording level while observing the peak level indica
tor indication.
For example:
With metal tape
Because of metal tape’s higher saturation level, it is OK that ‘‘+
2’’ lights occasionally.
With normal or chrome tape
It is OK that ‘‘+ 0’’ lights occasionally.
•
When the recording level is too low, the hiss noise inherent in
the tape will be conspicuous.
•
When the recording level is too high, exceeding the saturation
level, the recording will contain cracking noise and will be dis-
torted.
•
If ‘‘+ 4’’ lights too often because the recording level is too high,
the recorded sound may be distorted and seem to be breaking
up. If only ‘‘0’’ lights infrequently, the level is too low and the
recording may contain tape hiss.
It is best to adjust so that the maximum sound level of the
source to be recorded reaches the very limit of the saturation
level of the tape to be used.
The best level varies depending on the type of music and type
of tape so it is better to make a test recording, using FM music,
records, etc.
