Using the tape deck

Playing cassette tapes

This unit has a tape deck that can be used for both recording and playback. In addition, it features automatic music search (AMS) and

auto-reverse functions1. See Making tape recordings below for more features.

1Push down on the cassette door where indicated to open it and insert a tape.

2Close the cassette door.

3Press REVERSE MODE (front panel only) to select the reverse mode.

Press repeatedly to choose between:

– Single side playback

Auto-reverse playback: stops after

finishing playback in the ‘reverse’ ( ) direction

– Continuous playback (up to 16 complete plays)

4 Press TAPE to start playback.

You can also press (remote) or (front panel) to start playback when TAPE is selected.

The side of the tape you’ll hear is whichever is face up when you load it. This is the ‘forward’

(

) direction, while the other side is ‘reverse’

(

). The direction indicator is shown in the

display.

Basic playback controls

The following table shows the basic controls on the remote for playing discs.

What it does

TAPE

Starts/resumes normal playback. Each

( )

time you press either button during

 

playback, the other side of the tape

 

starts playing. Pressing TAPE ( )

 

when the tape is stopped starts

 

playback on the side it was playing

 

previously.

 

 

 

Pauses playback.

 

 

 

Stops playback. Also resets the tape

 

counter to 0000 if pressed when the

 

tape is already stopped.

 

 

 

Press to fast-rewind a tape.

 

 

 

Press to fast-forward a tape.

Searches for the previous / next blank

aspace between tracks on the side currently playing (in other words, to the start of the current / next track), then resumes playback.

By pressing more than once, the tape will skip several tracks at once (up to a maximum of 15). For example, press

twice to skip forward two tracks.

a.Track search is unlikely to work reliably if:

the space between tracks is less than about 4 seconds.

the recording is noisy so the spaces are not recognized.

the recording contains frequent silences, such as a lan- guage study tape.

the recording contains sections of very quiet material, such as some classical music recordings.

Note

1 The auto-reverse feature lets you play or record a tape without physically taking it out and turning it over.
