tape recording
You can tape record an input from another audio source or two sources at the same time.
If you’ve been using a tape recorder as an input source, it will already be connected to the
T1 or T2 IN sockets. If you haven’t, first connect the tape’s output to the T1 or T2 IN
sockets.

selecting the bus
Your amplifier has two input selection buses. The default bus is bus A and this is the
one you would use to choose your inputs in everyday operation. The advantage of
having two buses is that it allows for two tape recorders to tape (different inputs)
simultaneously.
Bus A is permanently connected to the Tape 2 (T2) output and Bus B is permanently
connected to Tape 1 (T1) output which prevents you from accidentally taping to and
from the same machine.
You can tape from any source to either of the tape recorder outputs and both
outputs can be monitored. For example you can play a CD on Disc 1 on Bus A and
connect your tape recorder to the Tape 2 output while you play a record on Disc 2 on
Bus B and connect another tape recorder to the Tape 1 output. Simply switch
between Bus A and Bus B to monitor either of the sources.
