Recording onto a tape

—CD-TAPE Synchro Recording/Manual Recording/Sound Mixing

You can record on a TYPE I (normal) tape in three ways:

CD-TAPE Synchro Recording:

You can record an entire disc onto a tape.

Manual Recording:

You can record just the portions you like from a sound source, including connected audio components.

Sound Mixing:

You can “mix” sounds by playing one of the components and singing or speaking into a microphone (not supplied). The mixed sound can be recorded onto a tape.

1 Load a recordable tape into the tape deck with the side you want to record facing up.

2 Prepare the recording source.

Select the source you want to record.

CD-TAPE Synchro Recording

Press CD (RM-AMU006) or press FUNCTION +/– (RM-AMU008) repeatedly (or press CD on the unit) to select the CD function. Load the disc you want to record, and press DISC SKIP repeatedly to select the disc. To select the play mode, press PLAY MODE repeatedly in stop mode (see “To change the play mode” (page 17)). To record your favorite CD tracks or MP3 files in the order you want, perform steps 2 to 6 of “Creating your own program” (page 27).

Manual Recording and Sound Mixing

To record sound from a microphone, press CD (RM-AMU006) or press FUNCTION +/– (RM-AMU008) repeatedly (or press CD on the unit) to select the CD function, and do not start playing any disc in step 3.

Manual Recording and Sound Mixing

While recording, you cannot listen to other sources. Otherwise, recording stops.

Press x Z on the tape deck.

Notes

•We recommend that you press X on the tape deck first, then press x Z on the tape deck to avoid noise being recorded when you stop recording.

•You cannot eject the disc, select another disc, track or file, pause playback or find a point in the track or file during CD-TAPE Synchro Recording.
