Convenient Features For Recording.17 - Technics RS-TR979 Operating Instructions Manual

Notes:
• Tape-to-tape recordings cannot be made from deck 2 to deck 1.
• Recording level as well as equalizer effects and Dolby noise-
reduction effects are recorded on to the tape in deck 2 exactly
as they were originally recorded on the tape in deck 1.
• Because noise-reduction effects cannot be heard in the
playback sound, when listening to a tape recorded by employ¬
ing noise-reduction use the treble tone control on the amplifier
to reduce the treble range.
• While a tape-to-tape recording is in progress, you can also en¬
joy some other source. Select the desired sound source by us¬
ing the input selectors on the amplifier, and start the perfor¬
mance.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that recording pre-record¬
ed tapes or discs on other published or broadcast material
may infringe copyright laws.
