3D-environmental sound system

This system allows you to reproduce two input sources, for example the CD and TAPE, separately from the main speakers
3S
and OMNI speakers. Overlapping the environmental sound from the OMNI speakers on the music from the main speakers will bring an atmosphere as if the listener is listening to the music in the middle of that environment.
To enjoy the environmental sound play, it is required to
install the OMNI speakers (OMNI-A5: optional).

Enjoying music with sound of presence

The noise and atmosphere of a concert hall, jazz club or sta dium will enhance the ambience of music. Play the desired track from the provided CD through the OMNI speakers and play music through the main speakers.
When the presence sound is combined with one of
^ the DSP presence modes, the atmosphere can be
made more realistic.

Note on provided CD

When it is required to play a music CD while reproducing one of the environmental sounds on the CD provided, record the desired envi ronmental sound track of the CD ON to a tape, play this tape through the OMNI speakers and play the desired music of the music CD through the main-speakers. By using the repeat playback function of the CD player unit when recording onto tape, the same track can be recorded repeatedly on it.

CD edit recording
The following procedures allow edit recording of CDs by simply setting the length (recording time) of the tape. All of other operations will be assumed by the UD system, from the recording level and bias settings to the complicated process ing at the end of two sides of tape. (OCRS)
Desired CD tracks of more than one CD can be edited in the desired order. In this case, use the "program edit recording" procedure.

How to calculate the delay time

The optimum delay time varies depending on the position where the listener is located. Calculate the optimum delay time referring to the following illustration.
Delay time (ms) = 20 ms + 3 ns x (A - B) For example, if A = 5 m and B = 3 m;
20 ms + 3 ms X (5 - 3) = 26 ms

Maintenance

Notes on cassette tape

Safety tab (accidental erasure prevention tab)
After an important recording has been finished, break the safety tab, to prevent the recorded contents from being erased or re corded on accidentally.
To re-record Apply tape only to the position where the
1. 120-minute cassette tape
I Notes I
tab has been removed.
Since a 120-minute cassette tape is very thin, the tape could adhere to the pinch roller or be easily cut. It is recommended that these tapes not be used with this unit to prevent possible damage.

Cleaning the head section

Cleaning the heads and periph eral com ponents
For maintaining the best condition of the deck and for longer service life, always keep the heads (recording / playback / erase), cap stan and pinch roller clean. To clean them, perform the following:
1. Open the cassette holder.
2. Using a cotton swab dipped in alcohol, clean the head (recording / playback /
Pinch roller
Tape guides
erase), capstan and pinch roller carefully.
I Note I
There are precisely aligned parts around the heads, including the tape guides. When cleaning, pay special attention so as not to apply shock to them.
To store cassette tapes
do not store the tapes in a place which is subject to direct sun light, or near equipment that generates heat. Keep the cassette tapes away from any magnetic field.
When there is slack in the tape
In such a case, insert a pencil into the reel hole and wind the reel hub to remove the slack.
2. Endless tapes Do not use an endless tape, as this could damage the mecha nism of the unit.
Demagnetizing the head
When the recording / playback head is magne tized, the sound quality will be deteriorated. In such a case, demagnetize the head using a com mercially available demagnetizer (head eraser).

Beware of condensation

When water vapor comes into contact with the surface of cold ma terial, water drops are produced.
If condensation occurs, correct operation may not be possible, or the unit may not function correctly. This is not a malfunction, however, and the unit should be dried.
(To do this, turn the POWER switch ON and leave the unit as it is for several hours.)

In case of difficulty

Remote control unit

Remote control operation is not possible. • Batteries are exhausted.
Symptom Cause
e The remote control is too far apart from the
system, the controlling angle is deviated or there is an obstacle in between.
m The oarallel rnrri ic nnt mnnof'toH nrnncrK/

• When the unit is brought from a cold place to a warm place, and there is a large temperature difference,
• When a heater starts operating.
• When the unit is brought from an air-conditioned place to a place of high temperature with high humidity.
• When there is a large difference between the internal tempera ture of the unit and the ambient temperature, or in conditions where condensation occurs easily.

CD player unit

Symptom
A CD is placed in the player but it cannot be played.
Sound is not produced.
Sound skips.
1. With some tapes, a squeaky noise is produced when the tape is stopped automatically. This is due to the tape protection function, and | not a malfunction.
2. Do not use 120-minute tapes, for the tape is too thin and gets easily tangled.
3. This system is microprocessor-controlled, so malfunction may occur due to external noise or interference noise. In such a case, unplug the power cord, plug it and turn power on again.
4. Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be specially careful against contact cleaners containing oil, for they may deform the plastic components.

Strombrytarens POWER beredskapsläge
Indikatorn STAND BY tänds after nätkabelns anslutning till ett vägguttag, oavsett strombrytarens POWER till/frànslag. Detta anger att en liten rnangd ström leds till komponenten som stöd for minnesinnehéllet. Detta läge kallas for beredskapsläget. Strömbrytaren pä fjarrkontrollen kan användas för att s!à pà och av strömmen as länge indikatorn STAND BY lyser.
Virtanäppäimen (POWER) valmiustila (STAND BY)
Kun laltteen verkkojohto on liitetty pistorasiaan, valmiustilan merkkivalo syttyy riippumatta virtanäppäimen (POWER) asennosta (ON/OFF). Merkkivalo osoittaa, että laitteessa on hieman virtaa muistin sisältöjen ylläpitoa varten. Tätä tilaa kutsutaan valmiustilaksi. Kun valmiustilan merkkivalo (STAND BY) palaa, laitteen virta voidaan kytkeä ja katkaista kaukosäätimellä.
Symptom

Radio stations cannot be received.
• The antennas have not been connected.
• A proper broadcasting band has not been selected.
• The frequency of the station to be received is not uned.
Afbrydertastens (POWER) STAND BY funktion
När apparatets stremledning er tilsluttet en stikkontakt, lyser STAND BY indikatoren, uanset om der er taendt ved afbryderen pä apparatet eher ej. Det angiver, at apparatet bliver forsynet med en ganske lille maengde ström til opret-holdelse af hukommelsens indhold. Denne funktion kaldes STAND BY. När STAND BY indikatoren er taendt, kan strommen til apparatet släs til og fra med fjernsty-ringsenheden.
PÀ/A V-knappens Stand-by funksion
När stromledningen til dette anlegget er satt I en vekselstromskontakt, vii STAND-BY indikatorlampen lyse enten PÄ/AV-knappen er pä-eller avsiätt. Dette betyr at en viss mengde ström tilfores anlegget slik at innholdet i minnet ikke gär tapt. Denne funksjonen kalles Stand-by. När indikatorlampen for STAND-BY er tent, kan strommen släs PÄ / AV fra fjernkontrollen.
