Dolby Noise Reduction Systems
Dolby NR (Noise Reduction) systems are to
reduce background hiss noise on the tape, and
applied to all types of cassettes.
This unit is equipped with the Dolby B NR and
Dolby C NR systems.
• Dolby B NR is most commonly applied to
commercially available stereo cassette tape
decks.
• Dolby C NR was further developed from Dolby
B NR to satisfy the demand for wider dynamic
range sound reproduction, and is more
effective in reducing tape noise than Dolby B
NR.
It is recommended that a note be made on the
cassette label as to which Dolby NR mode the
tape was recorded in, since the tape must be
played in the same Dolby NR mode.
Dolby HX Pro System
The unit is also equipped with the Dolby HX Pro
system.
Dolby HX Pro is a system that constantly adjusts
the recording bias current to the most suitable
level. With this system, even music sources
consisting mostly of high frequency sounds can
be recorded in good condition because the
dynamic range in higher frequencies can be
expanded.
The system operates while recording regardless
of the Dolby NR mode setting.
Preventing an accidental recording
a Cassettes have two erasure prevention tabs;
one is for side A and the other is for side B
as you see in the illustration below. By
removing one or both of the tabs, you can
prevent accidental recording over the
recorded tape.
b After you remove the erasure prevention
tabs, you can cover them with adhesive tape
for recording. When you do this, avoid
covering the tape type detection holes (see
“About Automatic Tape Type Detection” on
page 10).
