How to Operate the C2300, con’t

ton or by using the Remote Control and pressing the 2nd

connected to the rear panel OUTPUTS 1 or 2 Jacks. It also

Headphones Jack
Connect a pair of dynamic headphones with a 1/4”
(0.635cm) stereo phone type plug to the Headphones Jack
for private listening.
Output Meters
The C2300’s Output Meters indicate the Output Voltage
available at the MAIN and OUTPUT 1 & 2 Jacks to drive
Power Amplifiers. Refer to figure 27. The Meters are cali-
brated in dB
(decibels) and
respond to all
the peaks con-
tained in the
musical infor-
mation. They
indicate to an
accuracy of at least 95% of a single cycle from a 2000Hz
tone burst.
The Meter Electronic Circuitry “Time Stretches” the Meter
Drive Signal so the Meter Pointer pauses just long enough
for the human eye to see it and is followed by a moderate
decay rate.

2. Adjust the record level using the recorder volume con-
trol and proceed with the recording process.
3. To listen to the playback of the program source just
