Glossary

ATS

Automatic Tape Selection. The tape deck automatically sets
the appropriate equalization characteristics and bias current
according to the type of tape inserted in the deck.

Automatic calibration

The automatic adjustment of the bias current and recording
level for the inserted tape.
This adjustment works together with the deck’s ATS
(Automatic Tape Selection, see above) to get the best
possible recording results on any tape.

Auto rec level function

A function that automatically sets the recording level
according to the peak signal level of the program source
prior to recording.
When active, this function gradually decreases the recording
level when the signal level rises excessively during
recording.

Dolby HX PRO system

A system that reduces distortion and noise in high-frequency
response during recording. A tape recorded with this
system produces the same high-quality sound even when
played on other tape decks.

Dolby NR (noise reduction) system

A system that eliminates tape hiss noise by boosting low-
level signals in the high-frequency range during recording,
then lowering them during playback.
There are four types of systems: A, B, C and S (TC-WE825S
only). Type A is for professional use (and is not available on
your tape deck), and types B, C and S are for consumer use.
Type S has the maximum noise reduction capability,
followed by types C and B.

Multi-AMS

Multi-Automatic Music Sensor is a function that locates the
beginning of up to 30 tracks before or after the current track
by detecting the blank space (of over 4 seconds) between
tracks.

Multiplex filter

A filter for eliminating the 19-kHz stereo carrier and the
38-kHz sub-carrier signals that may impair the Dolby NR
system. Though tuners are usually equipped with this filter,
if you got poor results when recording FM broadcasts with
the Dolby NR system, your tuner may not have a filter or the
filter may not be working. In this case, set the DOLBY NR
switch on the tape deck to ON FILTER.

Test tones

Signals (10-kHz and 400-Hz) generated by the tape deck for
bias current and recording level calibration.
