Recording on a Tape
Tips
• If the indicator on SYNCHRO goes off after
flashing rapidly, the tape cannot be recorded on
because the record-protect tab(s) on the cassette has
(have) been removed.
• Tracks on a CD differ in length. Classical music
CDs and others often have tracks that exceed the
recording time of a single cassette side. In this
case, record the tape manually.
• A tape that is loaded and has not been played or
recorded on is assumed by the deck to be a new
tape, even if the present location is in the middle of
the tape. The deck will transport the tape for 10
seconds before starting CD Synchro-recording to
bypass the portion corresponding with the leader.
To begin CD Synchro-recording without the ten-
seconds delay, play or record on the tape for about
10 seconds before starting the CD Synchro-
recording procedure.
• If the tape ends during CD Synchro-recording on
the front side of the tape (H lights up) and
DIRECTION MODE is set to s or RELAY,
recording of the track ends immediately, the tape
direction is reversed, and recording starts again
from the beginning of the track. If the tape ends on
the reverse side of the tape (h lights up), CD
Synchro-recording stops and the CD player stops
playing.
Notes
• To prevent interruption of the recording process, do
not press any operation buttons on the CD player
during CD Synchro-recording.
• Certain operation buttons on the tape deck are
disabled during CD Synchro-recording
Automatic function selection
When you connect CONTROL A1II
compatible Sony components using
CONTROL A1II cables (not supplied), the
function selector on the amplifier (or receiver)
automatically switches to the correct input
when you press the play button on one of the
connected components.
(For example, when you press H (play
button) on the cassette deck while the CD is
playing, the function selector on the amplifier
switches from CD to TAPE.)
Notes
• This function works only when the components are
connected to the amplifier (or receiver) inputs
according to the names on the function buttons.
Certain receivers allow you to switch the names of
the function buttons. In this case, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with the receiver.
• When recording, do not play any components other
than the recording source. It will cause the
automatic function selection to operate.
