Playing and recording audio tapes
Playback: Select the tape input. You will hear the output signal of the
tape recorder, which is applied to the tape-in jacks.
Recording: Select the desired channel. The signal is routed auto-
matically to the tape-out jacks and may be recorded through the tape
recorder input.
You may control the recording quality using the Monitor switch:
Button not pressed: You listen to the signal source.
Button pressed: You will listen to the recording in process.
The switching occurs without interfering the recording in process.
Playing records
You will need a special phono amplifier for playing records (e.g. the
Thorens TEP 302), as the playback will be turned down and distorted
otherwise.
