Introduction

The

new

TEAC

A-3440

represents

another

advancement

on

an

already

widely

accepted

technological

base.

The

previous

A-3340S

with

SIMUL-SYNC

established

the

populari¬

ty

of

four

channel

tape

decks

with

over-dub

capability.

To

a

large

segment

of

people

who

are

seriously

involved

in

creative

music,

both

as

artists

and

as

professionals,

decks

such

as

the

TEAC

trail

blazing

A-3340S

satisfied

a

need.

Now

the

A3440

goes

a

step

further

by

utilizing

the

ex¬

perience

gained

from

producing

truly

professional

tape

decks,

such

as

the

TEAC

TASCAM

80-8,

and

blending

in

the

"hands

on"

experience

obtained

from

actual

users

of

the

A-3340S.

The

result

of

this

improved

mix

of

raw

talent

and

product

artistry

is

your

A-3440.

TEAC

wishes

you

Good

Luck

and

fine

recording

with

your

Erasing

■

When

any

channel

(track)

is

set

in

the

record

mode

the

erase

head

for

that

channel

(track)

supplies

a

high

frequency

AC

signal

which

erases

any

previously

recorded

material.

If

no

new

signal

is

applied

by

the

record

head

the

tracks

will

remain

erased.

Any

one

or

all

tracks

can

be

erased

by

setting

each

channel

to

record

mode

with

no

input

record

signal

applied

or

with

the

INPUT

knobs

turned

counter

clockwise

to

0.

However,

if

a

tape

which

was

recorded

on

a

half

track

or

full

track

machine

is

to

be

used,

that

tape

should

be

erased

using

a

bulk

eraser

such

as

the

TEAC

E-2.

The

reason

for

this

is

that

the

recorded

tracks

on

these

tapes

are

not

the

same

as

those

on

a

four

track

deck

such

as

the

A-3440

and

therefore

the

tape

would

not

be

sufficiently

erased

when

using

normal

recording

procedures

on

the

A-3440.

SIMUL-SYNC

Recording

Procedure

There

are

many

ways

to

accomplish

the

mechanics

of

SIMUL-SYNC

recording.

Each

sound

engineer

or

even

home

recordist,

with

experience,

will

develop

a

certain

style

that

suits

him

best.

The

basic

procedure

below

may

be

helpful

to

those

who

are

just

getting

into

SIMUL-SYNC

recording

and

haven't

yet

developed

their

own

style

and

expertise.

Run

through

it

just

for

practice

and

famil¬

iarization

with

your

A-3440.

Once

that's

done

you're

on

your

way

to

setting

your

own

style.

1.

Let's

assume

you're

starting

from

Make

sure

the

is

that

clean

and

the

are

demagnetized,

Let's

say

you

want

to

play

your

piano

and

record

it

on

track

or

Remember

you

want

to

get

in

sync

with

your

guitar

tracks

so

you

have

to

listen

to

your

voice

count

and

begin

playing

at

the

right

time.

8.

Set

the

deck

in

record

mode,

listen

to

your

voice

count

and

begin

playing

right

on

cue.

If

you

miss

it

you

can

go

right

back

and

try

again

over

and

over

until

you

get

it

right.

9.

Now

you

can

fill

in

the

last

track,

4

in

our

example.

With

SIMU

L-SYNC

you

can

do

it

now,

tomorrow

or

next

week.

If

you're

new

at

this

type

of

recording

you'll

probably

find

that

it

takes

a

little

practice

to

get

it

all

together.

Once

you

get

the

knack

of

it

you'll

find

that

it

gets

easier.

And

while

you're

practicing

you'll

probably

be

thankful

for

the

chance

to

get

as

many

tries

at

perfection

as

you

need.

Pitch

Control

The

A-3440

has

a

PITCH

CONT

knob

located

next

to

the

index

counter

which

can

be

used

to

vary

the

speed

of

the

capstan

motor

by

±5

%.

Pull

out

the

knob

and

turn

it

to

the

left

or

right

to

change

capstan

motor

speed

during

record

or

playback

operation.

This

function

can

be

utilized

to

compensate

for

differences

in

the

pitch

of

instruments

tuned

and

recorded

at

different

times

or

as

another

creative

opportunity

for

an

inventive

musician

or

recording

engineer.

You'll

probably

find

it

takes

a

little

prac¬

tice

to

punch

in

to

record

on

a

rest

or

an

open

space

of

1/2

second

or

more.

The

same

applies

for

punching

out

of

record.

Punch

in

takes

practice

and

patience

to

get

it

all

together.

Once

you

get

the

knack

of

it

you'll

find

that

it

gets

easier.

Cueing

The

A-3440

has

a

Cue

Lever

located

beneath

the

pinch

roller

which

can

be

raised

up

to

retract

the

tape

lifters

so

that

the

tape

will

contact

the

heads.

This

allows

high

speed

cueing

during

rewind

or

fast

forward

op¬

eration

and

manual

cueing.

The

channels

to

be

monitored

can

be

selected

by

depressing

the

MONITOR

selector

switches.

If

the

deck

is

connected

to

an

amplifier

and

speaker

system

we

suggest

that

you

reduce

the

volume

control

on

the

amplifier

to

prevent

sudden

loud

sounds

from

damaging

your

amplifier

or

speakers.

Also

be

sure

to

release

the

Cue

Lever

when

the

cueing

function

is

not

being

used

in

order

to

protect

the

heads

from

unnecessary

wear.

Remote

Control

There

may

be

times

when

the

person

handl¬

ing

the

recorder

wants

and

needs

some

freedom

of

movement

so

that

he

can

move

away

from

the

recorder

and

still

maintain

control

of

it.

The

optional

REMOTE

CONTROL

RC-70

can

be

connected

to

the

rear

panel

connector

of

the

A-3440

to

provide

remote

control

of

the

transport

from

about

16

feet

away.
