Recording From a CD, Radio

avoid missing the beginning of the source
signal.

record on both sides in auto reverse mode .

Recording From Tape

from Deck A to Deck B, since only Deck B is
capable of recording. Use only normal bias tape

you. Insert a blank cassette in Deck B with the
side you wish to record on facing toward you.

speed. Alternatively, press the High Dub i
button to automatically start dubbing at twice
normal playback speed. The quality of the
recording may be better if Normal Speed dub-
bing is used rather than High Speed Dubbing.
When dubbing at high speed, turn down the
Volume ⁄Ù to prevent possible damage to
the loudspeakers by the high-pitched playback
of the source tape.
4. During dubbing, the Pause button d8 will

it will have no effect on the recording level,
which is not adjustable.
