Tips

You can mix and record sound from microphone after step 2. To record the sound, see “Recording on a tape manually” on page 18. To stop recording, press x.

If acoustic feedback (howling) occurs, move the microphone away from the speakers or change the direction of the microphone.

If you want to record your voice through the microphone only, you can do so by selecting the “CD” function and not playing a disc.

When high level sound signals are input, the system automatically adjusts the recording level to prevent distortion of the recorded sound signal (Auto Level Control function).
