The Tape Monitor is an override. Pressing the TAPE Button (12) connects the output of your tape deck to the Kandy, overriding the selected input. However, the selected input is left connected to the recording input of your tape deck. If you have a suitable tape deck, this facility enables you to record a programme whilst monitoring its playback.

When the TAPE Button is depressed, the TAPE Indicator light (11) glows and the selected source Indicator remains illuminated.

The input selector remains functional when the Tape Monitor is ON, allowing a range of sources to be recorded. Pressing the TAPE Button toggles between Tape Monitor ON and OFF.
