Recording onto a cassette from any of the sound sources is simple. Just place a tape in Deck B, have the source ready, make one or two settings, and youre ready to record. For each source, the pro­cedure is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But first, here are a few things to make your recordings better.
Things To Know Before You Start Recording
❏❏❏❏ It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted
material without the consent of the copyright owner.
The recording level, which is the volume at which the new tape
is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME Control on the System. Also, it is not affected by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording, you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.
Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A
and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure or recording.
Adhesive tape
At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording CDs, radio broadcasts, etc., wind on the leader tape first to ensure getting the beginning of the recording.
CAUTION:
If a recording you make has excessive noise or static, the Unit may have been too close to a TV which was on during the recording. Either turn off the TV or increase the distance between the TV and the Unit.
To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover
the holes with adhesive tape first.
Type I tape can be used for recording.
17
Page 21
Standard Recording
This is the basic method for recording any source. The System also has special ways for recording CD to tape, and tape to tape, which save you time and effort, as well as give you some special effects. However, when you need to add a selection to a tape you have made, or are combining selections from several sources on one tape, use the method described below; just substitute the source you want into this procedure, such as a tape in Deck A, a CD, or the Tuner. You can also record from an external equipment with this procedure.
Using the Cassette Deck (Recording)
Insert a blank or erasable tape into the Deck
2
B and wind past the tape leader. Press the CD REC START button on the Unit.
3
CD REC appears on the display and the REC indicator lights up. Then, the System begins CD Synchro Recording and the tracks on the CD are recorded on the tape. When recording of the tracks of all CDs is finished, CD REC FINISHED scrolls on the display and the CD Player and Cas­sette Deck stop.

To Record Any Sound Source to Tape
Follow these steps to record from any sound source onto a tape in Deck B.
Insert a blank or erasable tape into the Deck
1
B and wind past the tape leader.
Tape travelling direction
Prepare the source, by, for example, tuning

in a radio station, loading CDs, or turning on connected equipment.
For CD recording, see CD Synchro Recording mentioned below.
For dubbing, see Tape to Tape Recording (DUBBING) described below.
Press the REC START/STOP button on the
3
Unit.
The REC indicator lights up and the System begins record­ing. The Tape indicator (3) blinks on the display.
If the tab of the cassette tape on the Deck B is removed to prevent erasure or recording, "NO REC" will appear on the display.
To stop during recording, press the REC START/STOP but­ton on the Unit, or press the 7 button.
Recording an AM Station to Tape (Beat Cut)
When recording an AM broadcast, beats may be produced which are not heard when listening to the broadcast. If this happens, press the PROGRAM button on the Unit to eliminate the beats.
Set to AM station and start recording.
1
Press the PROGRAM button on the Unit to
2
eliminate the beats.
Each time you press the button, the display changes as shown below: CUT 1= CUT 2 = (back to the beginning)
If the tab of the cassette tape on the Deck B is removed to prevent erasure or recording, "NO REC" will appear on the display.
After the CD Player has played the entire CD or all the pro­grammed tracks, the tape automatically stops.
To stop at any time during the recording process, press the REC START/STOP button on the Unit or the 7 button. “CD REC FINISHED scrolls on the display and the CD Player and Cassette Deck stop.
When making SLEEP timer settings while doing CD Syn­chro recording, set enough time to allow for the CD to fin­ish playing, otherwise the power will go off before recording is completed.
Tape to Tape Recording (DUB­BING)
Recording from one tape to another is called dubbing. You can dub tapes simply, with just a single button.
Press the TAPE

Insert the source cassette you want to copy
2
from into Deck A for playback. Insert a blank or erasable cassette you want

to copy onto into Deck B for recording. Press the DUBBING button on the Unit.
4
Deck A and Deck B will start simultaneously and the "REC" indicator lights up. During dubbing, the Deck indicators "A" and "B" light up al­ternately.
If no tape is inserted into Deck A, "NO TAPE" will appear on the display.
If no tape is inserted into Deck B, "NO TAPE" will appear on the display.
To stop dubbing, press the REC START/STOP button on the Unit or the 7 button.

Setting the SLEEP Timer
Use the Sleep Timer to turn the System off after a certain number of minutes when it is playing. By setting the Sleep Timer, you can fall asleep to music and know that your System will turn off by it­self rather than play all night.
You can only set the Sleep Timer when the System is on.

The SLEEP indicator starts blinking on the display.

The SLEEP indicator stops blinking and remains lit, and the display returns to the original one before setting the Sleep Timer. The System is now set to turn off after the number of minutes you have set.
To Confirm the Sleep Time:
When the SLEEP button on the Remote Control is pressed, the re­maining sleep time is displayed. Wait until the display returns to the original display.
To Cancel the SLEEP Timer Setting:
Press the SLEEP button on the Remote Control until the “SLEEP” indicator goes out on the display.
Turning off the System also cancels the SLEEP Timer.
Timer Priority
Since each timer can be set independently, you may wonder what happens if the settings overlap. Here are the priorities for each timer:
The REC Timer always has priority. This means that:
If other timer is set to come on during a time when the REC Timer is operating, the other timer just wont come on at all, so you will always get the entire program on a tape.
If the REC Timer is set to come on while other timer is oper­ating, the other timer will turn off just before the REC Timer is set to turn on, and the REC Timer will then take over.
If the SLEEP Timer is set while DAILY Timer is operating, the
DAILY Timer settings are cancelled. However, if DAILY Tim­er is set to come on while the SLEEP Timer is operating, the SLEEP Timer setting will be cancelled and the System will use the settings from the DAILY Timer.
