6. about 20 Bias calibration Choosing the proper bias current for a tape ensures minimum distortion and flat frequency response Lowering the bias current boosts high frequency response but also results in higher distortion Raising the bias on the other hand reduces distortion but also dampens high frequency response You thus obtain proper bias when the bias current and high frequency response are well balanced oe Bias reduced l N Bias Bias T reduced increased ss high high v frequency frequency O2 Bias increased response response boosted suppressed Frequency in Hz e By changing the bias you can tailor the response to your liking for example by slightly emphasizing the upper or lower end e The frequency response of metal tape is much less affected by changes in the bias current than other tape types and in some cases is uneffected The adjustment range of this deck about 20 may therefore not be wide enough to allow adjustment for all tapes Recording level calibration Even when the recording level is adjusted correctly a tape with low sensitivity will result in a low playback level The REC LEVEL calibration control allows you to compensate for sensitivity differences among tapes to equalize both recording and playback levels This is especially important when using the Dolby NR system since the system is most effective when recording and playback levels are the same
