Important information about Vocal Masking
* You can change the tone level by using the KEY CTRL button.
* Because the radio signal is not as reliable as signals coming froma tape or CD, you may
not always get satisfactory results using the radio as a source for Vocal Masking.
* With this method of vocal masking the sound in the middle of the stereo field, which is
usually a vocal, is reduced without reducing the instrumental part. However, the voice
part is not completely eliminated, only significantly reduced.
* Some tapes and CDs are better sources for singing along than others.
Mono sources are not suitable for Vocal Masking.
* On sources with duets, strong echoes, d chorus, or with only a few instruments, the
singer's voice may not be completely reduced.
* Poorly dubbed tapes may not work well for Vocal Masking.
Using the Microphone Only
1, Attach the microphone.
2. Set the MIXING LEVEL to the MIC position.
3. Press the CD button from the source selecting buttons.
If you hear the sound from a CD, press the STOP/CLEAR @ button.
4. Adjust the VOLUME control.
Recording from the Microphone
You can use the microphone for recording:
Sound going into the microphone is mixed with sound sent to the tape in deck B
from some other source, such as the CD, or radio.
You cannot record your singing-along when the main source is a tape in deck A.
See the procedure for recording on page 8 in the Easy Guide section.
Note
To prevent howling and squealing when using the microphone, adjust the VOLUME
control, and try not to point the microphone at the speakers.
When you are not using the microphone, disconnect it.
