DOLBY NR & DOLBY HX PRO
• The B/C-type Dolby NR Systems
Dolby NR systems are designed to reduce the amount of tape hiss,
mainly in the treble components. During recording, the high-
pitched pianissimo sounds which are most characteristia of
audible noise are boosted, and during playback, only these
boosted sections are attenuated, so that tape sound is returned to
normal. As a result, the noise is attenuated by an amount equal to
the boosting in the treble range. The Dolby B-type NR system re-
duces noise in the treble range, cutting tape hiss and expanding
the dynamic range. The Dolby C-type NR system is even more ef-
fective in reducing noise, as it reduces noise from the mid-range
on.
• Dolby S-type NR System
The Dolby S-type noise reduction system is effective at reducing
noise not only in the treble and mid-range frequencies, but in the
bass frequencies as well. In addition, maximum noise-reducing ef-
fect is demonstrated not only in non-recorded parts of the tape
but in the recorded signal portions as well. The broad reduction of
noise modulation (bridging noise), freedom from dynamic side-ef-
fects in the audible spectrum (signal modulation) and reduction of
decoding errors results in vastly improved sound quality.
NO TE:
When a tape has been recorded using the Dolby B-type, C-type or
S-type NR system, set the DOLBY NR ON/OFF switch "ON" and
then used the Dolby NR switch (BIC/S) to choose the system that
was used during recording.
• Dolby HX PRO Headroom Extension System
The DOLBY HX PRO system controls the bias current during re-
cording and maintains it at the optimal level based on the amount
of the high-frequency components in the music signal. It therefore
provides excellent recording quality even when recording signals
from digital sources, which contain a large amount of high-fre-
quency components. To guarantee optimal results, the HX PRO
system is activated automatically when recording begins. Since
this system controls the quality of recording itself, the clarity of
the sound will be maintained even when the tapes are played back
on another cassette deck which does not contain the HX PRO
Headroom Extension System.
