3 – Cassette operations—Recording tapes from the PHONO deck

The dubbing stops when playback reaches the end of the CD, or when the tape reaches the end of its run (one side in the case of single-sided (u) reverse mode, both sides in the j reverse mode), which- ever comes first.

Note that if the tape is set to auto-reverse, and the last item recorded on one side of a tape was not com- pletely recorded before the tape was reversed, that item will be automatically repeated.

Also note that when the tape automatically reverses, eight seconds are used as non-recorded time at the beginning of the second side (the tape is in record

mode, but the CD does not play back), again to allow for leader tape at the start of the cassette.

The dubbing process can also be stopped manually with the STOP key of the cassette deck or the CD deck. All other transport keys are disabled.

NOTE

Dubbing is not possible if: a cassette is not loaded, or a CD is not loaded. It is not possible if the cassette is write-protected, or if the CD is a recordable disc which does not currently have any material recorded on it.

It is also not possible to enter the dubbing mode if the tape is not in stop or record ready mode, or if the CD is not in stop or pause mode.

Dubbing to tape from the middle of a CD

The above procedure describes the playback and recording from the start of a disc (or the start of a programmed playback list).

To record from a point other than the ones above:

1Locate the disc to the point where the play- back is to start.

2Press the disc PAUSE key to pause playback at the point where the playback is to start.

3If recording is to start at the beginning of the cassette, make sure the cassette is stopped, otherwise, locate the cassette to the appropri- ate position where recording is to start, and enter record ready mode.

NOTE

Using the headphones with the MONITOR switch set to MIX will help here.

4Press the DUB 2 key. Playback starts on the disc, and recording starts on the cassette.

Bypassing the INPUT level for dubbing

The INPUT control can be bypassed so that it has no effect when dubbing, in the following way:

1Press the MENU key until the DUB>VOL item appears.

2Turn the dial to select either THRU (the con- trol is bypassed and disabled) or ON (the control is enabled).

NOTE

This setting applies only to dubbing procedures, not to other recordings.

It is not possible to make this menu setting (or any other menu settings) when dubbing is actually taking place.

Recording tapes from the PHONO deck

To record from an external record deck connected through the RIAA PHONO inputs:

1Prepare for recording as described above (load a tape, set the REV MODE, etc.).

2Press the MENU key until the PHONO > xxxx menu item is shown.

If the display does not show PHONO > TAPE, turn the MULTI DIAL (or press the

SKIP keys on the remote control) until it does

and press the MULTI DIAL (or ENTER on the remote control unit).

3Press the PHONO key H. The PHONO indica- tor lights on the display.

If the tape is currently in stop mode, the tape rewinds, and the deck enters record ready mode (about eight seconds from the start of the cassette, to allow for leader tape).

If the tape deck is already in record ready mode, it will remain in record ready mode.
