SOUND MIXING
One of the features of this model is its varied sound mixing
ability. MIC-I + UNE, MIC-2 + DlN, UNE + DlN, or
MIC-I + MIC-2 can easily be accomplished. For sound
mixing, choose any of the above combinations and follow
recording procedure, connecting source to appropriate
inputs, and adjusting input level controls accordingly in

TAPE ERASING
Any signals previously recorded on the tape will be
automatically erased as a new recording is made. For
erasing only, thread tape and set machine to recording
mode. No plugs should be connected to the input jacks and

quick and complete erasure, a bulk tape eraser is recom-
mended.
.Be sure that the proper Track Selector Switches are depressed. If
both switches are depressed, both the left and fight channels will
be erased.

[
Cut the tape diagonally with an overlap so that the ends are
lined up. Cutting tape on the diagonal eliminates detection
of the splice in recording. Cover aligned ends with splicing
tape, exerting pressure to secure ends evenly. Trim off
excess splicing tape. Cutting into the tape very slightly will
eliminate the possibility of a sticky splice. Splicing using
scissors requires skillful work. For smooth and easy spicing,
Akai Tape Splicer AS-3 is highly recommended.
