Recording onto a cassette from any of the sound sources is simple. Just place a tape in Deck B, have the source ready, make one or two settings, and you’re ready to record. For each source, the procedure is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But first, here are a few things to make your recordings better.

Things To Know Before You Start Recording

It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the copyright owner.

The recording level, which is the volume at which the new tape is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME Control on the System. Also, it is not affected by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording, you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.

Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure or recording.

CAUTION:

If a recording you make has excessive noise or static, the Unit may have been too close to a TV which was on during the recording. Either turn off the TV or increase the distance between the TV and the Unit.

Adhesive tape

To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover the holes with adhesive tape first.

Type I tape can be used for recording.

At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording CDs, radio broadcasts, etc., wind on the leader tape first to ensure getting the beginning of the recording.
