When using a microphone
Basic operation of the mic mixing:
For initial set up, turn the power on and set the source signal
to be mixed, press the VOLUME key marked UP to set the
sound level to your preference then proceed as follows:
1. Plug a microphone into the MiC jack.
2. Push the G.E. key marked REC or SOURCE to insert the
MIC MIXING circuit into the signal path in accordance
with the mixing required.
3. Adjust the MIXING LEVEL control to obtain the desired
mixing ratio of source and mic input.
4. For further adjustments of sound level, use the VOLUME
keys to adjust the overall sound level so that the mixing
ratio of microphone input and source will not change.
Note:---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The MIC MIXING circuit is not activated unless the VOLUME key
marked UP or DOWN is once pressed. Therefore, when the sound
level is controlled only with the PRESET VOL control, mic mixing is
not possible.
To mix with source:
1. Press the G.E. key marked SOURCE to insert the mic mix­
ing circuit into the signal path.
2. Set the source input with one of the INPUT SELECTOR
keys.
3. Use the microphone and adjust the MIXING LEVEL con­
trol to the desired mixing ratio.
4. Adjust the VOLUME (UP or DOWN key) to your prefer­
ence.
If a tape deck is connected to the TAPE A or B jacks, this
mixed operation can be recorded.
At this time, ensure that the indicator behind the letters REC
or the signal flowchart lights: if not, press the DUBBING key
marked OFF.
To mix with a tape source to be dubbed:
1. Press the G.E. key marked REC to insert the mic mixing
circuit into the dubbing signal path.
2. Press the DUBBING key marked A ► B or B ► A accord­
ing to your requirements.
3. Set the tape deck to be played back in operation.
4. Adjust the mixing ratio in the same way described in the
above basic operation of mic mixing.
5. Set the other tape deck in recording mode to dub the
mixed operation.
Note: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the microphone is not in use. make it a rule to set the MIXING
LEVEL control to SOURCE, fully counterclockwise.
This prevents the source signal level from being attenuated.
