FUNCTIONS

*//// Records in real time from any external sound source fed through either a power amp or mixer, by cutting onto special Vestax vinyl blanks at speeds of 33 1/3 and 45 rpm.

*//// Cut at 33 1/3, each vinyl blank has a total playing time of between 26 and 30 minutes.

*//// Recorded properly, the superb sound and individual warmth of each take/track is more than durable enough to handle repeated playing and even scratching.

*//// Each production is able to be played back instantly through the onboard ASTS tone-arm.

*//// VU Meter(s) and Input Level adjust. To produce fine recordings on the VRX-2000 will require close scrutiny of the input level(s). Wide frequency dispersion left unadjusted may result in a damaged cutting head or a bad sounding cut.
