CD-Deck Synchro Recording

If your CD player has a compatible CD Synchro function, you can auto- matically record your CDs. Connect the CD player’s and cassette deck’s CD SYNCHRO jacks as described in “Connecting the CD-Deck Synchro Con- trol Cable.”

Note: A 41/2-second blank space is automatically created between selections.

2.Load a blank tape (or one you want to record over) into Deck 2. Be sure the side you want to record on is facing you and the full reel is to the left.

When the compact disc finishes playing, the CD player stops and the cassette deck pauses. Within 1 minute, change the disc and start play on the CD player to resume recording. If the CD player does not start play within 1 minute, the cassette deck stops.

When the CD player changes discs (multi-disc CD players), the cas- sette deck pauses, then resumes recording when the CD player begins playing the next disc.

If the cassette deck reaches the end of the tape and stops while the CD plays, the CD player returns to the start of the current track, then pauses.

If REV MODE is set to automatically switch to the other side of the tape and the tape reaches the end of the first side while the CD player is playing, the CD player returns to the beginning of the current track and pauses. A 41/2-second blank space is automatically created on the reverse side of the tape, then the CD player resumes playback and the deck resumes recording.
