Conversion:
Music cassette recording in the manual mode:
When the music cassette and the Micro-SD card are inserted and the Audio
Rescue is in the Stand-by Modus (LED is illuminated in green), then the Au-
dio Rescue would be ready for the conversion. Start the playback and press
the recording button – the conversion has now started automatically (the
LED flashes green during the recording procedure). The recording can be
stopped again by pressing on the recording button.
In the manual mode the titles are saved in a file. If you would like to save the
individual songs in separate fields, you have to briefly press the key in the
break between the songs. Then the green LED goes off for about 2 seconds
and restarts flashing when the next song is saved in a new file.
If you want the Audio Rescue to take over this function for you, press the key
for 3-5 seconds, in order to change over to the Auto mode. The colour of
the LED changes from green to blue.
Recording in the Automatic mode:
In the Auto mode, the Audio Rescue recognises the break between the
songs and saves each song in a separate file. On the Micro-SD card, a fol-
der (TAPEMP3) is automatically created, where the individual files (FV0001-
FVXXXX) are being saved. In order to change back to the manual mode,
please press the key for 3-5 seconds until the LED is illuminated in green
again.
