GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TOA AM-821 fully automatic spot announcing machine is designed for use where recorded tape
messages are required to be repeated at specific time intervals or on command during background music
play. Instant live announcements may also be made. Designed for easy operation using normal cassette
tape. Unrecorded sound section necessary for automatic playback can be easily made in the tape. Also, the
built-in AGC keeps output levels constant and you can turn out message tapes for yourselves. You can skip
unneccessary messages between the first and the ninth message if you wish.
The AM-821 has a built-in timer for distributing the message at prearranged intervals. The message tape may
also be played at specific time intervals by using an external timer.
The microphone may be used for both recording and paging. Paging level can be kept constant by the built-in
AGC.
Remote control of the cassette operation during recording is possible with the RM-820 optinal remote
microphone.
