Recording onto a tape from any of the sound sources is simple. Just
place a tape in the Cassette Deck, have the source ready, make one
or two settings, and you’re 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 should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-
record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without
the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or
video recording, broadcast or cable program and in
any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied
therein.
■ When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set
Reverse mode to do so. Recording automatically stops after
recording in the 2 direction. Therefore, make sure that the tape
direction is 3 when recording with Reverse mode on.
■ 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. Nor is it
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.
■ To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover
the holes with adhesive tape first. However, when a type II tape
is used, only cover part of the hole as shown, since the other
part of the hole (Type II detection slot) is used to detect the
tape type.
■ Type I and Type II tapes can be used for recording.
Note: 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 on the leader tape first to ensure
that the recording will be made without any music part lost.

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 System.
Standard Recording
You can record any sound source to tape as follows:
1 Insert a blank or erasable tape into the
Cassette Deck.
2 If you want to record on both sides of a
tape, press the REV. MODE button on the
Unit until the indicator is lit.
•When using Reverse mode, insert the tape so that it will be
recorded in the forward 3 direction.
3 Check the recording direction for the
tape.
Make sure that the Tape Direction indicator is the same as that
for the tape in the Cassette Deck. If the directions are different,
press the TAPE @ # button to correct the tape direction and
then press the 7 button to stop the tape.
4 Prepare the source by, for example,
tuning in a radio station or turning on
connected auxiliary equipment.
Note: For CD recording, refer to “CD Direct Recording” on page
17.
5 Press the REC button on the Unit.
The REC indicator lights up and the System begins recording.
Notes for using Reverse mode for recording
When recording in Reverse mode, the System automatically stops
when it reaches the end of the reverse 2 direction. To record on
both sides of a tape, make sure that the recording direction for the
tape inserted is forwards 3, and that the Tape Direction indicator is
also forwards 3, before you start recording.
To stop at any time during the recording
process
Press the 7 button.

CD Direct Recording
Everything on the CD goes onto the tape in the order it is on the
CD, or according to the order you have set in a program.
One track recording––––––––––––––––––
1 Insert a blank or erasable tape into the
Cassette Deck.
1 Insert a blank or erasable tape into the
Cassette Deck.
2 Insert a CD.
3 Press the CD #/8 button.
4 Press the 7 button.
•If you want to record specific tracks only, program the
tracks beforehand. You can check their total playback time
on the display during programing. (See page 13.)
5 If you want to record on both sides of a
tape, press the REV. MODE button on the
Unit until the indicator is lit.
•Make sure that the recording direction for the tape and the
Tape Direction indicator are correct. (See “Notes for using
Reverse mode for recording” on page 16.)
6 Select whether to have pauses left
between recorded selections.
•If nothing is done, a non-recorded pause of about four
seconds will be automatically left between selections.
•If you do not want pauses left between selections, do the
following before proceeding to the next step.
Press the CD #/8 button twice.
The CD player enters Pause mode.
2 Play the track on the CD you wish to
record.
3 Press the REC button on the Unit.
The CD player returns to the beginning of that track and the
track is recorded on the tape. After recording, the CD player
and Cassette Deck automatically stop.
7 Press the REC button on the Unit.
The REC indicator lights up and the System begins recording.
•When recording a CD onto tape with Reverse mode on:
If a song is recorded for more than 12 seconds (which
corresponds to the length of leader tape) but not finished
before the first side of tape comes to an end, this song will
automatically be recorded on the second side from its
beginning to avoid being split on both sides.
If a song is recorded for less than 12 seconds before the
first side of tape comes to an end, the song preceding this
song will also be recorded on the second side from its
beginning as it may not be completely recorded on the first
side because of leader tape.
•After the CD player has played the entire CD, or all the
programed tracks, the tape automatically stops.
To stop at any time during the recording process, press
the 7 button. The tape stops after 4 seconds.
Note: When making SLEEP timer settings while doing CD Direct
recording, set enough time to allow for the CD to finish
playing, otherwise the power will go off before recording is
completed.
