(Only the pitch of Deck A can be varied.) Turn the PITCH CONTROL clockwise to heighten the pitch by increasing the tape transport speed. Turn it counterclockwise to lower the pitch by decreasing the tape transport speed.
AUTOMATIC TAPE SELECTION ENGLISH This Stereo Cassette Deck contains an automatic tape selector which automatically selects the optimum bias and equalization for the tape in use. This is accomplished by detection of tape type detection holes in the cassette housing. If a tape without tape type detection holes is used, the deck will be set for normal tapes.
RELAY PLAY (continuous playback of the tapes in deck A and deck B) Load a cassette tape into deck A and B, and set the Dolby NR button correctoly.

PROPER RECORDING LEVEL ENGLISH A too high recording level can saturate the tape and cause distortion. On the other hand, if the recording level is set too low, soft passages will be marked by residual noise. A proper recording level is the single most important factor for making well balanced recordings. Note: The optimum recording level differs depending on the program source and the type of tape used.
