The Sony
TC-K65 shares much in common with the TC-K61. Both decks incorporate Sony's
smooth, two-motor and high-torque spooling motor. Both machines have the
Sendust and Ferrite record/playback head for superior dynamic range and low
distortion. And the K65 has the same microprocessor logic function sequencing
and the same LED Peak program Meters as theK61. What distinguishes the K65 are
two important operating modes: mic/line mixing in record, and Sony's
extraordinary Random Music Sensor (RMS) in playback. With these features, the
K65 achieves a new level of versatility and convenience.
Mic/Line
Mixing
For
recording flexibility the microphone and line-level inputs of the K65 can be
mixed. Thus, you can record simultaneous music and narration, or add your own
musical material to recordings of broadcasts and discs. The K65 facilitates
input mixing with independent level controls for left and right "mic"
and line inputs, along with a convenient master record level control.
Random
Music Sensor
The
TC-K65 incorporates Sony's RMS (Random Music Sensor) a system that can be
programmed to automatically locate and play individual selections of music.
Working in conjunction with the transport microprocessor, the RMS allows you to
hear a cassette's musical selections in any sequence you choose. For example,
you can listen to the third selection, and then the ninth and the second
automatically. You enter the desired sequence into the RMS using the
"program" and "memory" buttons. With RMS, the deck
automatically fast-forwards or rewinds locates the selection and plays. The
numersal display glows to indicate each selection, RMS can distinguih up to
fifteen selections on a single cassette side. ANd you can program up to sixteen
instructions, including selection replays.
You can
also take advantage of the RMS without programming, RMS provides the ability to
"skip" back to the beginning of a selection or "skip"
forward to the beginning of the next selection.
These
responsive functions of the RMS, along with AUto Play, Memory Stop and Memory
Play timer operation and remote control capability make the Sony TC-K65
exceptionally convenient and effortless to use. With the K65, it is easier than
ever before to hear exactly the music you want to year, exactly when you want
to hear it.
