Before You Start Recording
To keep the best recording and playback sound
quality
You need to clean the heads.
• Clean the heads after every 10 hours of use with
a wet-type head cleaning tape (available at electronic
and audio shops.)
When the head becomes dirty, the following
symptoms will occur:
– Sound quality is reduced.
– Sound level decreases.
– Sound drops out.
• Do not play dirty or dusty tapes.
• Do not touch the highly-polished head with any
metalic or magnetic tools.
To demagnetize the head
Turn off the unit, and use a head demagnetizer
(available at electronic and audio shops.)
At the start and end of cassette tapes
There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus,
when recording CDs or radio broadcasts, wind the leader
tape first to ensure that the recording will be made without
any music part lost.
The use of the C-120 or thinner tape is not
recommended, since characteristic deterioration
may occur and this tape easily jams in the pinch
rollers and the capstans.
To protect your recordings
Cassettes have two small tabs on the back to protect
unexpected erasure or recording.
To protect your recording, remove these tabs.
To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with
adhesive tape.
Adhesive tape
•
It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the copyright
owner.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control. Thus, during
recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.
• While recording, you can hear sound mode effect and/or the Active Hyper Bass PRO effect through the speakers or
headphones. However, the sound is recorded without these effects (see pages 12.)
• While recording, the display lights red.
• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static, the unit may be too close to a TV. Place the unit away
from the TV.
• You can use type I tape for recording.
