Al EDIT RECORDING

The Al edit function enables CD recording without worrying about tape length and track length. When a CD is inserted, the unit automatically calculates the total track length. If necessary, the order of tracks is rearranged so that no track is cut short,

Time on cassette tapes and editing time

The actual cassette recording time is usually a little longer than the specified recording time printed on the label. This unit can program tracks to use the extra time. When the total recording time is a little longer than the tape’s specified recording time after editing, the display shows the extra time (without a minus mark), instead of the time remaining on the tape (with the minus mark).

Recording is inhibited if the erasure prevention tab on either side of the tape is broken off.
