Please read this manual thoroughly before making connections

Features
Full-logic record/play transports with auto reverse and
continuous play
Full-logic controls provide smooth, trouble-free electronic
switching, and keep you from having to press the stop button when
switching between functions. And auto-reverse/continuous play
lets you play both sides of both cassettes in sequence, without
having to take out the tapes and flip them over.
Two eight-segment peak-holding fluorescent meters
The easy-to-read FL meters have peak-holding functions, which
are indispensable when setting the best record/playback levels.
Four-digit electronic tape counter
The large, clear electronic tape counter shows the current tape
position, so you can easily edit and locate specific sections.
CD synchro recording
This feature lets you easily make accurate recordings from a
compact disc at a touch of a button, when your tape deck is
connected to certain z (remote interactive) compatible ONKYO
CD players.

z (Remote Interactive) compatible
If you’re one of the fortunate ones who own other ONKYO
components that bear the z mark, simple single-cable connection
lets you operate all of the major functions of both transports of
your TA-RW244/144 with the other component’s remote. (The
remote control supplied with ONKYO z CD players covers
Deck-B functions only.)
Other features
Auto tape selector: Automatically sets the optimum bias and
equalization levels for the type of tape you insert.
Dolby B and C Noise Reduction: Reduces the audibility of
undesirable tape hiss while retaining music nuances.
Auto space rec mute: Inserts precise five-second breaks between
songs to give your tapes a more professional touch and to make
music search easier.
