7 – Recording Cassette Tapes
CD DUB key
CD DUB key
The tape automatically rewinds to the start of the A side,
and the tape counter resets to “0000.” The CD pauses at
the beginning of its first track. After the tape records about
eight seconds of silence (to avoid the leader tape), dubbing
starts with the CD beginning playback and the cassette
recorder beginning recording at the same time. (The DUB
indicator appears on the display.)
When the CD playback stops or the tape end is
•
reached, the tape stops (the tape side end that it
stops at depends on the reverse mode) and dubbing
ends.
When dubbing in two-side recording mode, if the
•
last track being recorded to the first side of the tape
is not recorded completely before the operation
direction reverses, that track is recorded again from
its beginning on the second side of the tape.
When dubbing in two-side recording mode, nothing
•
is recorded for eight seconds after the operation
direction is reversed. (CD playback pauses while the
cassette recorder continues in record mode.)
Press the TAPE or CD STOP key to stop dubbing at
•
any time.
