OPERATION
SOURCE AND MONITOR SELECTION
The SOURCE button directs the signal from the Processor input
selection section to the DAC and analog output stage. The source
button must be depressed to listen to the selected input through
the main audio system.
The MONITOR button routes the output of the component
connected to the digital tape loop input to the DAC and analog
output stage. This enables you to listen to the digital tape recorder
output while recording.
PHASE SWITCH
The analog output phase of the REFERENCE 64 can be changed.
In some recordings the master tape was recorded out of phase,
creating unusually poor sounding recordings. ~
The REFERENCE 64 can shift the absolute output phase 180
degrees to correct for this anomoly. To change the phase from 0
degrees to 180 degrees, press the 180 DEG button. To change
back to normal phase, press the 0 DEG button. Utilizing the
Phase Shifting can, in some instances, restore life to a previously
dull sounding recording.
EMPHASIS LED
Emphasis is a recording technique that accentuates the treble
region of recorded music. Discs and/orTracks that were recorded
with Pre-emphasis will cause the Emphasis LED to illuminate.
When the Emphasis LED is lit the appropriate complementary
circuitry (De-emphasis) is activated to provide a fiat output
response.
