TAPE TIPS
Recommended Tapes
Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the
recording. We recommend extended-range or low
noise Type 1 regular length (60- or 90-minute) nor-
mal-bias cassette tapes. We do not recommend long-
play cassette tapes such as C-120s because they are
thin and can easily tangle.
Restoring Tape Tension and Sound
Quality
After you play a cassette tape several times, the tape
might become tightly wound on the reels. This can
cause playback sound quality to deteriorate.
To restore the sound quality, fast-forward the tape
from the beginning to the end of one side, then turn it
over and completely fast-forward the other side. Then
loosen the tape reels by gently tapping each edge of
the cassette on a flat surface.
