Tips

•When you dub on both sides, start recording from the front side. If you record from the reverse side, recording stops at the end of the reverse side.

•If you set DIRECTION to § when the tapes you use have different lengths, the tape in each deck reverses independently. If you select RELAY, the tapes in both decks reverse together.

•You don’t have to set DOLBY NR, since the tape in deck B is automatically recorded in the same state as the tape in deck A.
