Adjusting
the
Recording
Level
Recording
level
adjustment
is
the
most
important
factor
in
achiev-
ing
good
recording
results.
A
high
recording
level
helps
to
improve
signal-to-noise
ratio
and
dynamic
range,
but
if
excessively
high
it
results
in
distortion.
On
the
other
hand,
if
level
is
set
too
low
out
of
fear
of
distorting
the
sound,
irritating
tape
hiss
will
become
notice-
able
in
the
recording.
Not
only
tape
characteristics
differ
depend-
ing
on
the
maker
and
kind
of
tape,
but
also
for
tapes
with
the
same
specifications.
You
can
get
the
most
of
any
tape
and
obtain
good
recordings
if
you
adjust
the
recording
level
to
a
value
close
to
the
maximum
recording
level
of
the
tape.
The
level
meter
has
a
peak
holding
function
which
displays
peak
levels
for
about
1.2
seconds,
making
level
adjustment
easy
even
for
music
with
high-level
sound
bursts.
