1 – Introduction

The CC-222MKII provides you with an advanced system for the recording and playback of digital compact discs and analog cassettes, providing easy duplication facilities in both directions, and combin- ing the most advanced technology in both fields.

Additional audio units, both analog and digital, can be connected easily through the rear panel connec- tions, allowing the recording of other sources.

Additionally, the CC-222MKII is fitted with a dedi- cated phono connection, which eliminates the need for an additional RIAA-equipped amplifier when archiving vinyl recordings.

TASCAM’s legendary attention to detail provides a high-quality full-featured cassette tape deck, com- plete with Dolby noise reduction circuitry.1

24-bit digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital con- verters provide excellent recording and playback quality for the CD recorder.

A sampling frequency converter is incorporated, allowing the recording of CDs from digital audio sources at 32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz.
