RECORDING
With the C30 it is possible to listen to and record from one source, or
to listen to one source while recording another.
Both sets of tape sockets are identical in sensitivity and suitable for use
with almost any type of recorder (cassette, CDR, MD, VCR, reel-to-
reel, etc.). The record signal is sent to both the TAPE and VCR output
sockets.
RECORD

To record the currently selected source, press RECORD until the display
shows ‘RECORD SOURCE’. After a few seconds the display reverts to
showing the volume level and you are ready to record.
To listen to one source while recording another, press RECORD again
until the display shows ‘RECORD’ followed by the name of an input (e.g.
‘AUX’, ‘CD’, ‘TUNER’, etc.). Now press the source selector button on the
front panel for the source you wish to record. Your selection is shown
on the display for a few seconds, after which it reverts to showing the
volume level and you are ready to record.
The RECORD button can also be used as a second zone selector, sending
a source signal at line level to a second amplifier operating in another
room. If you need help with this, contact your Arcam dealer or Arcam
customer support.
TAPE-TO-TAPE COPYING (DUBBING)
You can perform tape dubbing from VCR to TAPE, but not from TAPE
to VCR.
For example, to copy from a cassette recorder connected to the VCR/
TAPE2 socket to a cassette recorder connected to the TAPE socket, first
use the RECORD button as explained above and select ‘RECORD VCR’.
This routes the VCR signal to the TAPE output.
Set the cassette recorder connected to the TAPE socket into its record
mode and the other to playback mode to start dubbing.
TAPE

To play back the recording from a cassette deck attached to the TAPE
input, press TAPE. ‘TAPE’ is shown on the display. Selecting this input
overrides the other source selectors.
It is also possible to monitor a recording while it is being made, provided
your cassette deck is a 3-head type. To do this, press TAPE. Pressing this
button on/off allows an A/B comparison between the source signal and
the recorded signal.
