Automatically recording a CD
Auto Synchro Editing System, or ASES for short makes sure that when recording a
complete CD, a track isn’t spread over two sides of a tape. If the tape runs out midway
through a CD track, the same track is automatically recorded from the beginning
again on the other side.
Note:
this feature will not work with Video CD or DVD.

Tip
Sometimes when recording
from the AUX inputs
(especially from a CD or MD
player), the signal level can be
too high for the tape deck to
record without distortion. If
this happens, reduce the
auxiliary signal level: switch the
system into standby then press
the
DOLBY
NR
button for about
three seconds until the display
shows
ATT
ON
. You should now
be able to record without
distortion. (When you select
the AUX mode, the display will
show
AUX
ATT
.
)
To switch back
to
ATT
OFF
, follow the same
procedure.
