CONGRATULATIONS!
Your MT120 Multitrack Cassette Recorder is a powerful recording tool that will enable you
to work with sound in many ways. No other multitrack cassette recorder offers the straightforward
simplicity and ease-of-use of the MT120. Whether you need to record acoustic instruments or
voice using microphones, electronic instruments and line-level sources, or a creative blend of
the two, the MT120 makes the process of building tracks extraordinarily smooth and simple.
You can simply record and remix four tracks, or use the multitrack “ping-pong” recording
technique to individually record up to ten independent parts — adding sound layer by layer
until you create exactly the arrangement and texture your imagination demands with its
ability to record on all four tracks at once, or in any combination, MT120 is the ideal choice
for recording bands or layering tracks at home. And, because it’s a YAMAHA, you know that
the MT120 will give you the very finest sound quality and overall performance available.
In order to make use of the MT120’s many features and obtain maximum performance, we
urge you to read this operation manual thoroughly — and keep it in a safe place for later
reference.
