It is now safe to turn off the rest of the system.

The KAV–300iL has a discrete tape input and output. The tape output is used to send an input signal from S-1, S-2, S-3, or B-1 to a recording device or processor. You can use the tape feature in three ways:

1.Use this button to playback pre-recorded tapes.

2.Use the tape input to compare the output signal of a three- head analog tape recorder to the output signal of an audio source, when making a recording. To activate this function, select an audio source for recording using either the S-1, S-2, S-3, or B-1 analog input buttons (5) or keys (26). Press the tape button (6) or tape key (27) on the remote control to switch between the tape recorder output (red tape monitor LED [7] illuminated) and the input source (red tape monitor LED [7] not illuminated).

3.Use the tape output to create a processor loop, when the KAV–300iL is connected to a graphic equalizer or other ancil- lary equipment. To activate this function, connect the equip- ment to the KAV–300iL tape outputs (16) as described in the equipment manufacturer’s manual. Press the tape button (6) or key (27) on the remote control to switch between the proces- sor output (red tape monitor LED [7] illuminated) and the input source (red tape monitor LED [7] not illuminated).

When changing sources, lower the volume to off or mute the output. This ensures that the next source played does not damage your system with a high output transient.
