whichever is the earliest, the tape will stop, and recording will stop on the disc.

If you want to adjust the input volume, set the DUB>VOL menu to ON and use the right (CD-RW) INPUT control to adjust the level of signals fed to the disc from the tape deck. If you wish to adjust the volume before recording starts, put the CD-RW into record ready or monitor mode and use the INPUT 1 SEL key to select TAPE.

You can also stop the dubbing process by pressing either of the STOP keys (these are the only keys which will work in dubbing mode).

NOTE

A recordable disc must be loaded in the drive, and a cas- sette in the tape deck for the dubbing to work. The DUB 1 key is disabled if the media are not loaded, and if the drives are in any mode other than stop.

Also note the following points:

When dubbing from tape to disc in bidirectional mode, the track number may automatically be incremented either when the end of the tape is detected (the start of the leader tape) and/or when the tape reverses. In this case, recording is not affected.

When dubbing from tape to disc in bidirectional mode, a click may be recorded when the tape reverses.

When dubbing from tape to disc, the leader tape will be recorded as silence on the CD.

Dubbing to CD from the middle of the tape

The previous instructions refer to recording from the start of the tape.

1To record from the middle of the tape, set noise reduction, reverse mode, etc. and locate the tape to the position where playback will start.

2Press the tape PAUSE key to leave the tape in paused mode.

3With a recordable disc in the drive, press the DUB 1 key. The tape will start playing back, and the disc will start recording.

Recording stops under the same circum- stances as for the whole tape (end of tape, end of disc or either STOP key pressed).

From the RIAA PHONO inputs

NOTE

Because of the background noise often experienced when playing back analog vinyl recordings, although the following features are enabled in the phono record- ing mode: trigger level, sync recording and automatic track division, the use of them is not recommended.

To record to disc from an external record player con- nected to the RIAA PHONO jacks:

1Load a recordable disc and put the unit in stop mode.

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

If the display does not show PHONO > DISC, 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). Prepare to play the record on the external record player.

3Press the PHONO key. The input changes to the RIAA PHONO input (the INPUT 1 PHONO

indicator lights on the display), and the disc recorder enters record ready mode.

4Start playing back the record.

5Start recording on the disc by pressing the disc PLAY key.

The level can be adjusted using the CD INPUT control.

Recording will stop when the recording time on the disc ends, or when the disc STOP key is pressed. The input source returns to the previously-selected key.

NOTE

No keys are enabled in this phono recording mode, except for the disc STOP key. This includes the RECORD key, which can therefore not be used for manual track increments (“Manual track division” on page 27). If you want to use manual track division, use the normal recording procedure, with the phono inputs selected as the source.
