TEAC f-330

Commentary

Stereo cassette deck with FL bar graph display.

A newly designed fluorescent indicator peak level meter is used in the meter section.
This meter is equipped with a peak hold function that can display peaks of more than 0 VU and can be used to set the optimum recording level. You can choose between two peak hold resets : auto and manual.
You can also adjust the brightness of the display in two levels.

High hardness permalloy head is used for the head.

FG servo DC motor is used as the drive motor.
This motor uses a built-in frequency generator (FG) to suppress changes in motor rotation caused by voltage and frequency fluctuations of the power supply.

The Dolby System is installed as a noise reduction system.
In addition, an MPX filter is built in to prevent the operation of the Dolby circuit due to the stereo pilot signal at the time of FM air check.

Equipped with a 2-stage bias / equalizer switching mechanism, recording and playback can be performed according to the characteristics of the tape.

The cassette holder is a soft eject type that utilizes the flywheel effect.
You can also see the condition of the tape through the lighted window.

The input volume is independent of the left and right channels, allowing you to set the recording level and adjust the left and right balance.

Equipped with an output volume.

Equipped with a rec mute mechanism.
If you press the REC MUTE button at the end of a song while recording, you can record freely without any signal until you press the PAUSE or PLAY button.

Equipped with timer mechanism, timer recording / playback is possible by combining with an audio timer sold separately.
In addition, the f-330 is equipped with a delay circuit so that it starts after the mechanism becomes stable a few seconds after the power is turned on.

Equipped with line / microphone input selection switch.
This switch allows the line input to be sent directly to the recording amplifier without passing through the microphone amplifier, eliminating distortion and noise when passing through the microphone amplifier and improving the dynamic range of the line input.

Compatible with DIN terminal.

It has a built-in memory counter that can be used for the beginning of a song.

There was a rack handle as an option sold separately.
