SE-99: Precautions for Use • Do not connect a microphone other than the RE-99 remote control microphone lor EM-99 condenser microphonel to the MIC jack on the front panel of this unit. If you connect another microphone to this jack , noise will be emitted and a breakdown may occur. Also, automatic sound space compensation measurement and reverberation time measurement will not be possible. • The TAPE PLAY terminals at the back of the unit are provided with shorting pin plugs.

NOISE REC TAPE MONITOR I' Automatic tape characteristic compensation function The frequency characteristics obtained during recording and playback using a tape deck sometimes have marked peaks and troughs due to the frequency characteristics of the tape deck or the tape used .
Adjusting reverberation time B) Middle range The reverberation time of the listening room is one of the major factors which influence the reproduced sound quality. If the reverberation time is too short, the sound will lack warmth , while if it is too long , the sound will be " muddy". The ideal reverberation time is between about 0 .3 and 0.8 seconds, depending on the size of the room . Also, it should be the same for all frequencies .
