Model X-12 Owner's Manual
When the leader part is forwarded, press
the [RESET] button to set the counter to
"000."
Select the track to be recorded with the [REC
TRACK] selector.
Select track 1 (the indicator will change to
red) or whatever track you prefer to record
on.
Try speaking into the mic.
The level meter LED will blink.
Put X-12 in the record standby mode.
First, press the [PAUSE] button, then the
[RECORD] button. The [PLAY] button will be
engaged automatically at the same time.
The tape will remain paused in the record
mode.
When the [LINE OUT/PHONES] knob is
slowly advanced, the input monitor sound
will be heard in the headphone.
While monitoring the sound in the
headphone, watch the level meter and adjust
the recording to a suitable level.
Because the recording level cannot be
adjusted with a fader, optimum recording
levels must be determined by the sound
volume applied to the mic or by adjusting
the distance to the mic.
<CAUTION>
If you must monitor for a long time, be
careful not to raise the
[LINE OUT/PHONES]
knob too high. If you monitor for long
hours at high volumes, it could impair
your hearing.
After confirming the level, release the
[PAUSE] button (The [PAUSE] button is
pressed again) to start recording.
If recording is to be momentarily stopped,
press the [PAUSE] button. If recording is to
be ended, press the [STOP] button.
Following the procedures up to this point,
the sound applied to the microphone has
been recorded on track 1 as shown in
schematic below.
Now, let's try recording another sound source
to another track with the same procedures.
Also, lets playback the recorded sound on
each track as described below.
<NOTE>
Be careful not to continue recording, if
the level meter
"+6"
LED lights up
frequently, as this will indicate the sound
can be distorted.
For optimum gain, adjust the [LINE-MIC]
knob CW (toward "MIC").
Adjust the [LINE-MIC] knob such that the level
meter "+3" LED is illuminated at maximum
sound volume.
When recording line level sound sources such
as a keyboard and electric guitar, the
optimum gain is obtained by rotating the
[LINE-MIC] knob CCW (toward "LINE").
