You may record through the Microphone or Line Input jacks.
For microphone recording, connect the individual micro
phone to the MIC jack of your cassette recorder. Please
note that only microphones with a 3.5 mm phone plug may
be used.
The line input jack is used to record line level signals from an
external source such as a receiver or another tape recorder.
Connect an audio cable (with a phono plug termination) to
the LINE IN jack of your cassette recorder, and the other
end of the cable (terminated with an appropriate plug) to the
output jack of the external source.

USE
In cassette recording, the type and brands of cassettes you
use have a great influence on the quality of your recordings.
Therefore, it is advantageous to purchase the highest quality
cassettes available. Chromium dioxide (Cr ,) and metal
tapes generally provide better fidelity than normal ferric
oxide tapes. When using these kinds of tapes, set the TAPE
SELECT R switch on the unit to the correct position to
suit the characteristics of the tape.
We recommend the use of cassettes with a recording capacity
of 90 minutes or less. In production, the performance of our
cassette decks is tested using the following tapes:

the SPKR M N is switched
N, you will be able to monitor
the source being recorded by simply turning up the LEVEL
control.
S URCE M NIT RING (PMD201 only)
With the SPKR M N switched
N, you will be able to
monitor the source being recorded by simply turning up the
LEVEL control. Monitoring may be accomplished through
the use of the internal speaker, or a headphone.
TAPE M NIT RING (PMD221 only)
In addition to source monitoring, the PMD221 contains a
third head which enables you to monitor directly from the
tape as a recording is made. To use this feature, place the
M NIT R switch in the TAPE position and turn up the
LEVEL control.
Source and tape monitoring may be accomplished through
the use of the internal speaker, external speakers, line outpAj
connections or a headphone.

To avoid audio feedback when making a microphone record
ing, place the microphone a suitable distance away from the
speaker. If desired, the internal speaker may be disconnected
by placing the SPKR M N switch to the
FF position.
ADVANCED RECORDING TECHNIQUES
C NTR LLING THE REC RDING LEVEL
The best method of controlling the recording level is deter
mined by the content of the particular program source. Use
the guidelines below to obtain the desired recording results.
REC M DE
LIMITER:
Allows you to manually set the recording level
of the REC LEVEL control while an internal
limiter circuit automatically prevents overload
distortion resulting from sudden level peaks.
MANUAL:
Permits manual control of the recording level
for maximum dynamic range.
ALC-
At this setting, the recording level is auto
matically set to the optimum level regardless of
the REC LEVEL control setting.
