Dubbing tapes from the CD deck
To record from the internal CD deck:
1 Prepare for recording as described above (load a
tape, set the REV MODE, etc.).
2 Load the source CD disc (press the
OPEN/
CLOSE
key, put the disc in the tray, recorded
side downwards, and close the tray).
3 Use the
MENU
key to set the dubbing volume to
THRU
to bypass the input level control (see
“
By-
passing the input level for dubbing” on page 23).
If you want to adjust the input volume, set the
DUB>VOL
menu to
ON
and use the left (tape)
IN-
PUT
control to adjust the level of signals fed to
the tape from the CD player.
NOTE
If you want to record the tracks on the tape in a
different order from those on the disc, use the pro-
grammed playback mode to rearrange the tracks
(see “Program playback” on page 17). Leave the
disc in stop mode when you have finished program-
ming the order.
4 Press the
DUB 2
key.
If the tape is in stop mode,
the tape rewinds to
the beginning of the current side.
At the start of the tape, recording starts, but the
CD does not start playback for eight seconds.
The
Dub
indicator flashes.
The CD starts playback after the eight seconds
at the start of the cassette. The
Dub
,
2
indicator
lights steadily.
If the tape is in record standby mode,
recording
starts immediately, and the CD starts playback
immediately. The
Dub
,
2
indicator lights.
The dubbing stops when playback reaches the end of
the CD, or when the tape reaches the end of its run (one
side in the case of single-sided (
Ä
) reverse mode, both
sides in the
Ë
reverse mode), whichever comes first.
Note that if the tape is set to auto-reverse, and the last
item recorded on one side of a tape was not completely
recorded before the tape was reversed, that item will be
automatically repeated.
Also note that when the tape automatically reverses,
eight seconds are used as non-recorded time at the
beginning of the second side (the tape is in record
mode, but the CD does not play back), again to allow
for leader tape at the start of the cassette.
The dubbing process can also be stopped manually with
the
STOP
key of the cassette deck or the CD deck. All
other transport keys are disabled.
NOTE
Dubbing is not possible if a cassette is not loaded,
or a CD is not loaded. It is not possible if the cas-
