Monitoring the Recorded Sound

When you record audio signal on a recording component connected to the TAPE 2 OUT jacks, you can monitor the recorded sound. The recorded sound monitoring function allows you to compare the sounds by switching the output between the sound before or after recording.

Pressing the TAPE 2 MONITOR button indicates a sign

“T2 MONITOR OFF” on the display. Press and hold the button while the sign is displayed, and release it when the sign changes to

“T2 MONITOR ON.”

Then you will see a sign “> T-2 ON” next to the input source name in the display. However, only “>” is displayed if a tuner is selected for input source.

Use the same procedures to deactivate the sound monitoring function.
