Cautions with recording
~
¢
The D0 mark on the meter scale indicates the reference level
of the Dolby noise reduction system.
e
In actual fact, the proper recording level differs slightly accor-
ding to the type of tape, the sound and the music being record-
ed. In order to make the most of the tape's characteristics and
produce good-quality recordings, it is important to check the
sound yourself by ear.
¢
The level meter may light up in a different way for recording
and playback. This is caused by the difference in the tape's
sensitivity and a slight deviation in this respect does not pose
any problems.
