The RECORD program line feeds the record output
for tape recorders. To make a tape recording, turn
the RECORD selector to the input program to be re-
corded. To copy a tape, turn this control to select the
recorder on which the tape is to be played. This can
be TAPE 1, 2, or 3. Copies can then be made on the
other recorders connected to the C 33. The COM-
PANDOR, RECord EQUALizer, and RECord MONI-
TOR pushbuttons can be used when making record-

EQUALIZER FREQUENCY CONTROLS
Each of five EQUALIZER FREQUENCY controls
raises or lowers the amplitude of a band of frequen-
cies centered on the frequency marked above the
control. Both left and right channels are affected.
The center, or flat position of the control has a de-
tent for easy reference.
Use the EQUALIZER FREQUENCY controls to
modify the sound and balance of program material.
