CC-222SL

Technical Documentation

TASCAM’s most popular combination
CD/Cassette recorder, the CC222SL,
now supports a more robust slot
loading CD transport and comes
equipped with “selectable” independent
outputs for CD and Cassette. The CC­222SL includes a RIAA phono input
which allows direct recording from a
turntable; a feature which sets the

CC-222SL above all the rest. Further solidifying this source-device’s reputation for flexibility is its ability
to be operated as two individual recorders; or, record one source to both recorders consecutively.

Digital I/O (coaxial and optical), RCA (unbalanced) analog I/O, Auto Track Increment, MP3 playback,
Power on Play, Fade In and Out, Manual Track Increment, and a variety of playback modes are just a few
of the features included on the CC-222SL that you’ve come to expect for TASCAM.
