Length of tape used for recording
Tracks on a CD differ in length. Classical music CDs
and others often have tracks that exceed the recording
time of a single cassette side. In this case, record the
tape manually.

When recording from the middle of the tape
A tape that is inserted and has not been played or
recorded on is assumed by the deck to be a new tape,
even if the present location is in the middle of the tape.
The deck will transport the tape for 10 seconds before
starting CD Synchro-recording to bypass the portion
corresponding with the leader. To begin CD Synchro-
recording without the ten-seconds delay, play or record
on the tape for about 10 seconds before starting the CD
Synchro-recording procedure.

recording stops and the CD player stops playing.
