locations:

®

Place

exposed

to

direct

or

near

a

®

Place

near

a

magnetism

When

piling

with

other

components,

carefully

plan

so

as

not

to

obstruct

heat

radiation

from

a

pre-mainamplifier

or

rack

is

re¬

commended.

*Always

disconnect

the

plug

from

the

before

making

connections

with

other

components.

®

Be

sure

to

remove

the

cassette

tape

from

the

cassette

compartment

after

the

end

of

operation

to

keep

the

tape

quality

and

maintain

the

deck

performance

for

a

long

time.

®

Store

cassette

tapes

off

from

a

strong

magnetic

field

such

as

near

a

TV

set,

amplifier

and

speakers

to

prevent

adverse

effect

on

the

recorded

sound.

®

Before

a

cassette

tape

is

played

back

or

recorded,

be

sure

to

eliminate

tape

slackness.

A

slackened

tape,

if

used,

may

cause

jamming

in

the

tape

running

mechanism.

Remove

tape

slackness

by

winding

with

a

pencil.

®

If

the

sound

recorded

on

the

tape

is

desired

to

be

pro¬

tected

from

accidental

erasure,

remove

the

erase-preven¬

tion

tabs.

With

these

tabs

broken

out,

accidental

erasure

can

be

prevented

even

if

the

RECORD

button

is

inadvert¬

ently

pressed.

®

If

it

is

later

desired

to

record

on

a

cassette

tape

protected

in

this

way,

cover

the

holes

with

adhesive

tape.

Your

deck

provides

the

Dolby

C-Type

Noise

Reduction

system,

which

is

said

to

be

the

ultimate

in

noise

reduction

system.

Also,

you

can

work

the

standard

Dolby

8-Type

Noise

Reduction

System

by

changing

the

B-C

select

switch.

The

Dolby

NR

System

is

one

of

the

methods

for

reducing

the

noise

that

is

created

during

the

play

back

of

a

tape,

and

is

now

widely

and

internationally

used.

The

noise

which

this

system

reduces

largely

emits

from

the

tape

itself

and

this

system

cannot

reduce

the

noise

which

comes

from

the

program

which

is

being

recorded.

Therefore,

in

order

for

the

Dolby

NR

System

to

function

more

effectively,

it

is

important

to

avoid

recording

from

signals

either

from

re¬

cords

or

FM

radio

that

contain

a

lot

of

noise,

i.e.,

it

is

important

to

choose

signals

with

as

little

noise

as

possible.

Principle

Any

magnetic

tape

used

on

a

tape

recorder

contains

native

noise.

In

particular,

among

these

noises,

the

middle

and

high

frequency

noises,

which

we

can

easily

pick

up

by

hearing,

are

called

"hiss

noises",

and

they

are

said

to

be

caused

by

the

site

of

magnetic

particles

on

the

tape.

Hiss

noises

decrease

if

the

magnetic

particles

are

small,

and

also

decreases

if

the

tape

is

played

at

a

higher

speed.

In

other

words,

the

high

speed

of

the

tape

playing,

and

the

small

size

of

the

magnetic

particles

produce

the

same

effect

as

regards

the

hiss

noise.

In

this

respect

a

cassette

tape

played

at

a

low

speed,

will

produce

more

hiss

noise.

Function

of

the

Dolby

Noise

Reduction

When

the

recording

input

signals

are

lower

than

the

stan¬

dard

level,

those

middle

and

high

frequency

sounds

among

those

signals

are

gradually

strengthened

and

recorded.

The

signals

will

return

to

the

original

state

if

a

tape

is

played

back

opposite

to

the

way

it

was

recorded,

i.e.,

if

it

is

played

back

with

middle

and

high

frequency

sounds

above

the

standard

level

being

gradually

weakened.

At

the

same

time

tape

hiss

sounds,

which

are

middle

and

high

frequency

noises,

created

during

the

play

back

are

reduced

accord¬

ingly,

as

the

signals

become

smaller.

Noise

reduction

is

achieved

in

this

way.

While

the

Doiby

B-Type

NR

System

has

only

the

noise

re¬

duction

capacity

of

the

noise

ievel

of

10

dB,

the

Dolby

C-

Type

NR

System

has

a

capacity

of

20

dB.

This

C-Type

NR

System,

in

comparison,

has

an

improvement

in

its

function

in

the

high

frequency

range

so

that

it

can

be

used

for

0

dB

recording.

The

Doiby

C-Type

NR

System

assures

enough

dynamic

range

and

SN

ratio

to

record

a

Hi-Fi

program
