RECORDING INSTRUCTIONS
Please use deck B for recording external sources or
dubbing tapes.
RECORDING EXTERNAL SOURCE TO TAPE:
1. Press [STOP/EJECT] on deck B to open the cassette
holder.
2. Insert a blank tape and close the cassette holder.
3. If recording to a Cr02 tape, press the [REC Cr02]
button.
4. Press the [PAUSE] button and then press
[RECORD].
5. Play your external source and check the levels on
the display. Use the REC LEVEL knob to adjust the
level of the incoming audio signal.
6. Press the [PAUSE] button to begin recording when
you are ready.
Tip: The REC LEVEL knob can be used to make
adjustments to the loudness of the incoming signal. If
the knob is in the center position, the incoming signal
will be recorded at its original volume. Ideally, the
recording signal should come close but never hit red in
the level indicator on the display. If the signal is in the
red, then turn down the REC LEVEL knob until it no
longer reaches the red. If the signal is too low and not
close to the red, turn up the REC LEVEL knob.
DUBBING OPERATION:

2. Insert the tape you wish to record to in deck B.
3. Press the [DUBBING] button. Dubbing will be

button. If the HI SP DUB indicator is
illuminated on the display, you will be dubbing in
high-speed mode. If the indicator is not lit, then you
will be recording in normal-speed mode.
5. Press the [PAUSE] button on deck A, followed by
the [PLAY] button to cue the tape.
