record on both sides in auto reverse mode .

Recording From Tape

to Tape (Dubbing)

JBL Soundgear will only dub recorded materials from Deck A to Deck B, since only Deck B is capable of recording. Use only normal bias tape in JBL Soundgear.

1.Insert a previously recorded cassette in Deck A with the side you wish to copy facing toward you. Insert a blank cassette in Deck B with the side you wish to record on facing toward you.

2.Press the Tape A/B button Û)!to select the tape function, and press it repeatedly to select each deck so that you can rewind each tape to the beginning using the Rewind button ¤#.

3.Press the Normal Dub button k to automat- ically start dubbing at normal (regular playback) speed. Alternatively, press the High Dub i button to automatically start dubbing at twice normal playback speed. The quality of the recording may be better if Normal Speed dub- bing is used rather than High Speed Dubbing. When dubbing at high speed, turn down the Volume Úôto prevent possible damage to the loudspeakers by the high-pitched playback of the source tape.

4.During dubbing, the Pause button d8will have no effect. You cannot change the speed of the dub during a dub. Although the Volume control Úôwill affect the level of playback, it will have no effect on the recording level, which is not adjustable.

5.Press the Stop/Reset button 43 6to end the dubbing session. Alternatively, the unit will stop automatically at the end of the tape.
