Notes:

Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the recording. We rec- ommend regular length (60- or 90- minute) cassette tapes. For low- noise, wide-range recordings, use normal-bias tape.

The recording level is preset. X- BASS, STEREO WIDE, and VOL- UME have no effect on the record- ing level or quality.

Dubbing (Copying) Cassette Tapes

You can copy from one cassette tape to another at normal or high speed, and you can monitor the tape as you dub it.

1.Load a blank cassette tape, or one you want to record over, into Deck 1 with the full reel to the left and the side you want to record on facing you.

2.Load the cassette you want to copy from into Deck 2.

3.To record at normal speed, set

DUBBING to NORM.

To record at twice the normal re- cording speed, set DUBBING to HIGH.

Note: High speed dubbing pro- duces a slightly lower quality re- cording.

4.On Deck 1, press PAUSE then

RECORD . PLAY and RECORD

lock down.

5.On Deck 2, press PLAY . Deck 1 automatically releases PAUSE , and the system copies the tape in Deck 2 onto the tape in Deck 1.

Notes:

To monitor the tape while it is copying, adjust VOLUME to a comfortable listening level.

If you monitor the tape while dubbing at high speed, the sound is distorted.

6.To stop copying, press STOP/

EJECT on Deck 1 and Deck 2.

When the tape in either deck reaches the end, that deck automatically turns off. If the cassette in the other deck has not run out of tape, that tape con- tinues to record or play.
