Features
e
Advanced Two-Mode CD Dubbing with Peak Search
When connected to Onkyo's CR-185X/CHR-185X CD
Receiver, one touch of either the Album or Fade buttons not
only starts CD-to-tape dubbing, it searches out the highest
peaks on a CD and sets the ideal recording level. During
Album dubbing, sophisticated circuitry checks the length of
the last song against the remaining tape. If the entire song
won't fit, recording will start from the song's beginning on
side B. With Fade dubbing, the last song will fade out on side
A and start again on side B.
e
Dolby HX Pro Headroom Extension
Dolby HX Pro extends the dynamic headroom to capture the
wider musical dynamics of CDs and other digital sources. It
provides noticeably cleaner reproduction of those crucial
higher frequencies by improving the tapes's ability to capture
high-level signals without saturation. Another plus is the
tapes you record with Dolby HX Pro can be played back on
decks without Dolby HX Pro, for improved sound perfor-
mance.
e
Dolby B/C Noise Reduction
You'll have no trouble making life-like, super-quiet record-
ings. Dolby B removes high-frequency hiss, while Dolby C
works over a wider range for cleaner, more faithful dubs.
