is internally connected
to
the power
amplifier section throuqh isolation
resistors to
provide
adequate
sound level
with popular low
impedance headphones
as well
as
with
high
impedance ones,
Two or

SOME
SUGGESTIONS
ON
USING
TAPE
RECORDEBS WITH
YOUB MODEL
2245
There are
several wavs
lo
connect
and
operate tape
recorders
with your
receiver,
To
avoid
confusiön
in
the
following
discussion, reference
to
"lape
monitoring"
assumes
that the
recorder
is
equipped
with
separate
record
and
playback heads
and
separate record and
playback preampli{iers. To
further simplify this
discussion,
a tape
recorder
normally connected
to the
rear panel
facilities will
be referred
to
as
the "main"
recorder,
A
separate
recorder normally connecled
to
the front
panel
jacks will
be referred
to
as
the
"external"
recorder.
This general arrangement is illustrated
in
Figure
7.
RECORDING
AND PLAYBACK
The
simplest system involves
only one
tape
recorder, whose
inpurs are connected to the TAPE
OUT jacks (on the
rear
panel) and whose playback
outputs are connected
to
the TAPE lN
jacks.
An
equally simple
arrangement
using
the
front
panel
facililies
involves
connecting the line inputs
to
the
dubbing OUT jack and the playback outputs to the
dubbing lN jack.
RECORDING
To
make
a recording.
set
the selector switch to the
desired proqram source and
put the
recorder into
the "record" mode of
operation.
With
the TAPE
MONITOR pushswitch in the
"out"
position,
the
original
program source will
be heard. By

A
word
of
caution: With
the tape recorder
in the
record mode, be careful
no1
to
place the
selector switch
in the "TAPE"
position when the TAPE MONITOR pushswitch
is
"out."
Doing
this
feeds
the
recorder's output
signals
bäck
to
its ;nput
terminals, eslablishing
a
revertrerating
loop.
l{
the
recorder's
playback
level
happens
to
be set
higher than its record level, the
resulting echo
or "howl" will
rapidlV
incredse in
volume level. No harm
wiil
be done
to the
recorder
or the
rece;ver,
but the
audible effect
from
the
loudspeakers
can be annoying.
PLAYBACK
To
listen
to
a
tape
already recorded,
put
the
recorder
in
the playback
mode
of
operation
and
turn the selector switch
to
"TAPE".
When
playing
tape
on än
external
recorder,
the
recorder's
playback outputs should be
connected
to
the
dubbing lN jack on the fron{ panel.
When
playing
a
tape on
the
main recorder, make sure nothing
is
plügged into the
dubbing
lN
jack, otherwise
the
main recorder's playback outputs
will
be
inlernally
disconnected in
the
receiver,
IVIAKING TWO

With two tape
recorders connected
to

a
continuous recording
can be made
