TAPE TIPS

Recommended Tapes

Tape quality greatly affects the qual- ity of the recording. We recommend extended-range or low noise type 1 regular length (60-minute or 90- minute) normal-bias cassette tapes. We do not recommend long-play cassette tapes such as C-120s be- cause they are thin and easily tangle.

Recording Over or Erasing a Cassette Tape

To record over a cassette tape, sim- ply record as usual. The cassette deck records over the previous re- cording.

You can quickly erase both sides of a cassette tape using a bulk tape eras- er such as Cat. No. 44-232, available at your local Radio Shack store.
