3. Use the remote control wand’s source buttons to select the desired source.
4. Use the remote control’s volume button to adjust the desired playing level. Increase
the volume by pressing the up button on the remote control., and decrease the volume
by pressing the down button on the remote control.
5. If the system is in mute, (i.e. the Mute LED on the preamplifier’s front panel is
flashing), press the mute button on the remote control to take the system out of mute
mode and put it into operate mode.
Pressing the volume up button on the remote
control unit will also reset the system out of mute mode
. Note that pressing the
volume down button on the remote will not affect the Mute/operating state of the
preamplifier.
6. Use the phase button on the remote unit to toggle the phase status of the system. If the
system is in phase correct mode, click the Phase button once to put it into phase inverted
mode. The Phase LED will turn from off to red when the system is changed to phase
invert.
7. Use the remote control’s Left Balance and Right Balance buttons to set the channel balance
status of the preamplifier. Pressing the Left or right Balance buttons will signal the
preamplifier to go into channel balance adjustment mode. The numeric display window
displays a bar on the left of the numeric display when the Left Balance button is pressed,
and a bar to the right of the display when the Right Balance button is pressed. The numeric
display also shows the channel imbalance offset value.
8. Use the Fade button on the remote control to change the volume level down to 20 if the
current level is higher than 20. The Fade button acts as a shortcut to allow you to quickly
turn down the volume of the preamp to level 20. If the current level is below 20, then
pressing the Fade button has no effect.
Using the Tape Loop to monitor recordings
The TL5.5 has two separate tape inputs, a monitor function, and a tape dubbing system
designed into the control hardware and software. These controls
will prevent the possibility of
howl from tape loop feedback between the tape inputs and the record outputs.
If you use a tape deck that gives you the capability of monitoring the recording, i.e. listening to
the recording while it is taking place, you can use the TL5.5’s Tape Loop function to take
advantage of this feature. Connect the tape’s input and output cables to the TL5.5’s Rec Out
and Tape In connectors, respectively, as per the instructions in the
Getting Started section of this
manual. While the tape deck is in recording mode, set the preamplifier to monitor mode by
pressing
Tape button on the front panel while holding the Mon/Proc button.. This allows the
preamplifier to play back the recording simultaneously while the tape is recording the selected
source. In this mode the volume of the Tape monitor input is regulated by the main volume
control on the TL5.5.
Caution: Before engaging the Tape monitor switch be sure to turn the volume
control all the way down to 00.
