High Quality Results Made Easy The TASCAM 102 MKII is a pro-quality cassette deck, with advanced tape bias support and transport systems. Still, it’s about as simple to use as any consumer electronics deck. And because it’s designed with an IC logic control mechanism, there are fewer mechanical parts to worry about. Even the tape transport buttons are fully electronic (not spring-triggered mechanisms). Computerized Program Search enables you to quickly scan forward or reverse for the next track, and the Intro Check func tion gives you a brief preview of each selection. Plus, one button puts CD synchronous dubbing at your fingertips. Noise reduction selector, stereo balance control and the master recording level control are all within easy reach. The Multi Function display provides instant feedback on which controls are selected and which features are activated. And the deck connects to your source with standard RCA type cabling and similarly sends the signal to a power amp and external speakers for monitoring. High Performance And Studio Polish Pushing one button places a consistent 4 second pause between songs or sections. The 102 MKII makes it easy to produce high-quality cassettes that will sound great on a variety of systems, from car stereo to pro audio equipment. 102 MKIISTEREO MIXDOWN CASSETTE DECK page 2 of 2 Advanced Tape Mastering Features • Auto Tape Type selection for optimal recording with any cassette • Multi Function display clearly indicates transport mode, tape counter position, Dolby system, tape type and level indicator • Multi-Counter with both Tape Counter and Run-time modes • Independent L and R stereo level controls and Master Record Level control • Record/Mute autospacer automatically inserts 4 seconds of silence between songs or broadcast segments • Dolby HX PRO for sparkling high frequency performance and minimized distortion • Dolby-B & Dolby-C noise reduction technologies • Bias Fine Tuning lets you customize high frequency response • Timer switch for unattended recording (commercial timer required for use with this function; not included) SPECIFICATIONS Track Systems: 4-track, 2-channel stereo Heads: 1 Erase and 1 Record/ Playback Tape Speeds: 4.76 cm/sec Wow Flutter (WRMS): 0.06% Frequency Response (Overall,-20dB): 25 - 19,000 Hz, Metal tape 25 - 18,000 Hz, Cr0 2 tape 25 - 17,000 Hz, Normal tape S/N Ratio: 59 dB (NR off, 3% THD level, Weighted) 69 dB (Dolby B NR on, over 5KHz) 79 dB (Dolby C NR on, over 1KHz) Fast Winding Time: Approx. 110 seconds for C-60 Inputs: 97 mV, 50KW Outputs: 0.52V for load impedance of 50KW or more Headphones: 1mW (8W) Power Consumption: 10 W Dimensions (WxHxD): 435x144x286 mm Weight (net): 4 Kg Standard Accessories: Input-Output connection cords Specifications and features subject to change without notice or obligation.
