CC-222MKII

CD Recorder/Cassette Deck

September, 2004

Introduction

The CC-222MKII is the world's first CD recorder and cassette recorder combo deck,
bringing the two most popular consumer media formats in one very affordable package.
The two decks can be used independently, perhaps for playback of material on one deck
while the other deck is recording. Or, you can use both decks for continuous play
between the two decks.

The cassette deck provides Dolby B Noise Reduction for better sounding recordings. A
±12% pitch control allows for varied speeds during recording or playback. This is ideal
for performers, allowing them to adjust pitch and tempo to suit their needs.

Each deck offers analogue inputs and outputs on unbalanced RCAs, allowing truly
independent operation. Digital I/O for the CD recorder i s provided on SPDIF co ax and
optical ports. As a bonus, the CC-222MKII is equipped with a RIAA phono input which
allows direct connection of a turntable for creating CD or cassette masters of your
favorite LPs. For ease of operation a wireless remote control is included.

Included in the design of the CC-222mkII are a number of enhancements to make it even
more helpful for even t recording. A digital attenuation control can now be added to the
analog inputs, and the CD's digital converters have been upgraded to 24-bit resolution for
better dynamic range performance.
