I was so happy that the owner's manual was available. It is well written and helped me to use the radio/CD player/recorder without problems. Thanks for making it available.

Thanks so much for the Owner's manual for my Sony PS - FL1. I had purchased the turntable off of eBay. It came in and looked great. Packed well and appeared to be great. I balanced and aligned the tone are and hooked it up. When trying to play a record the tone are would move to the right place and just before it would drop to play it moved back off the edge of the record before touching down. I searched the net for an answer to this issue. No luck. Then I purchased the owners manual and sure enough there was a place to adjust where the stylus touched down. That adjustment solved the problem and saved me a $35 feet to have the player checked out. The manual is well written and easy to understand. It is a must have for anyone with this front loading Sony turntable.
Some years back I pruchased a Sansui G-9000. I had it cleaned up and a problem with the left channel repaired. When I got it back I hooked it up to my tape decks, turn tables, TV and it played great. The only thing I was not really satisfied with was the performance of my Graphic Equalizer. I purchased this owner's manual had poured myself a cup of coffee. The manual is well organized and written in plain language. It also contained the solution to my dissatisfaction. By using the preamp connections coupled I was able to run everything through my graphic equalizer and now enjoy the full potential of my complete system.
An excellent service for the price, however, it would also have been handy if the troubleshooter pages were included. The manual is only sent in the language of your country, thus it looks as though there are some pages missing. Otherwise highly recommended.

About Memory
The memory of the RC-2 is divided into two areas: Phrase tracks 1-11 and the temporary memory.

What is a phrase track?
A phrase track is an area of the RC-2�s internal memory in which phrases are stored. Phrases that are saved here are not deleted when the power is turned off. In addition, phrases that are saved here can be selected at any time by using the PHRASE SELECT knob.

A phrase that you record or overdub is first stored in temporary memory. The phrase stored in temporary memory is temporary, and is erased when the following operations occur: If your recording/overdubbing produces a phrase that you wish to keep, be sure to save it to a phrase track (p. 32) before performing either of the above operations.
� When you turn off the power � When you select a different phrase track
The maximum total length of phrases that can be saved in Phrase Tracks 1�11 is 16 minutes. You can only change the playback tempo (p. 35) of phrases saved to the phrase tracks. If you wish to change the playback tempo of a newly recorded or overdubbed phrase, save it to a phrase track first.
Deleting a Phrase from Temporary Memory
Hold down the pedal for at least two seconds while playback is stopped or while a phrase is being played back (during playback without overdubbing).
The LOOP/ONE SHOT indicator flashes rapidly, and the phrase in the temporary memory is deleted.
