Mic Mixing Recording
Mic Mixing Recording function enables you to mix audio signals from a connected microphone with the audio playback
signals from the CD, USB flash drive or tape. (This function is not available during 2X-speed recording from a CD to a
USB flash drive.)
1 Connect a microphone to the [MIC] connector. (See page 11.)
2 Set up and start recording.
3 Input the sound you want to mix from a connected microphone.
Tips:
•To record only the mic sound to a cassette tape, perform the CD to tape recording procedure without loading a CD. You
could also perform the USB to tape recording procedure without connecting a USB flash drive.
•To record only the mic sound to a USB flash drive, prepare a cassette tape to USB flash drive recording, press the
USB [REC] button to place the unit in record ready mode, then press the [PLAY/PAUSE] button to start recording.
If you are using a microphone with a built-in remote switch, first turn the switch on, then start recording. Once record-
ing starts, you can pause and resume recording by turning the remote switch off and on. (This function does not apply
to a CD to USB flash drive recording or to a 2X-speed recording.)
CAUTION:
If the volume level is too high, feedback may occur. In this case, locate the microphone away from the speakers or
lower the volume level.
In general, turn the remote switch on. If the switch remains turned off, you will be unable to control recording or play-
back.
You can amplify the microphone input volume. At this time, the mic input will be mixed with the playback of the CD, USB
flash drive or cassette tape.
