Dual Well Cassette Deck for Easy Recording
The W-890R is an ideal deck for musicians, PA companies, theatres, schools or convention centres in need of a simple, but great sounding dual well cassette deck. It offers excellent sonic performance due to a wide frequency range, Dolby Noise Reduction and Dolby HX Pro Headroom Extension. Because of its bi-directional dual deck design, however, the W-890R’s strong points are dubbing and continuous-looping applications.

Both decks in the W-890R can record, so you can actually make two masters of the same source at the same time. You can also use the two decks for extended recording or playback applications. RTZ function and a repeat playback feature are provided, and you can increase or lower the pitch and tempo while playing back. A microphone input on the front panel makes spontaneous recording (solo or mixed with a line level source) convenient. And of course, you can use W-890R for cassette dubbing at normal or high speed.
