Recording
■
It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record
pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the
consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or
video recording, broadcast or cable programme and
in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic work
embodied therein.
■
When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set
reverse mode to
. Recording automatically stops after
recording in the reverse (
2
) direction. Therefore, make sure
that the tape direction is forward (
3
) when recording with
reverse mode is on.
■
The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not
affected by the VOLUME control on the system or by adjusting
the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust the
sound you are actually listening to without affecting the
recording level.
■
Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A
and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure
or recording.
■
To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover
the holes with adhesive tape first. However, when a type II tape
is used, only cover part of the hole as shown, since the other part
of the hole (type II detection slot) is used to detect the tape type.
■
Type I and type II tapes can be used for recording.
Note:
At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape which
cannot be recorded onto. Thus, before recording, wind on the
leader tape first to ensure getting the beginning of the recording.
CAUTION: If a recording you make has excessive
noise or static, the system may have been too
close to a TV which was on during the recording.
Either turn off the TV or increase the distance
between the TV and the system.
You can record any sound source to tape.
The sources are disc, tuner, auxiliary equipment, microphone, and
guitar. The microphone sound and guitar sound can be mixed with
any source.
■
1. Insert a blank or erasable cassette tape
into the cassette deck.

the leader tape which cannot be recorded onto.)
• If the inserted tape is not fully rewound, press

tape up to the end point of the leader tape which cannot be
recorded onto.
