Q' You should adjust the recording level manually with

REC LEVEL in the following cases:

—The recording level cannot be adjusted properly due

to excessive noise in the program source.

—The program source level is too low and the recording

level does not increase.

During a quiet passage in a program source such as

classical music, the recording level may not increase

for some time. If a high sound level is expected later

on in the track, play that portion first so that the right

adjustment can be obtained.

—The recording level does not decrease for a long time.

equalizer that has extremely high-level signals.

• To prevent changes in the recording level after

recording starts, press REC 9 while playing the

highest sound level portion of the program source to

be recorded. The result is a more natural-sounding

recording.

indicator has stopped flashing and is lit continuously,

the deck will set the recording level for the portion of

the program source with the highest signal level.

recording has ended

After you have finished recording with the Auto Rec

Level function, the AUTO indicator remains on and the

recording level setting remains the same. To cancel the

setting, do one of the following:

• Press ARL to turn off the AUTO indicator

'Q* What is the Auto Rec Level function?

The Auto Rec Level function automatically sets the

recording level according to the peak signal level of the

program source. While the AUTO indicator is flashing,

the deck sets the recording level as high as possible

without causing distortion. If the signal level rises

excessively after the start of recording, the deck

gradually decreases the recording level.
