AI EDIT RECORDING

The AI edit recording 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.

(AI: Artificial Intelligence)

AI edit recording will not start from a point halfway into the tape. The tape must be recorded from the beginning of either side.

2Press CD and load the disc(s).

3Press CD EDIT/CHECK once.

When using the remote control, press CD EDIT/CHECK once while pressing SHIFT.

5Press numbered buttons 0-9 on the remote

control to designate the tape length.

10 to 99 minutes can be specified.

Example: When using a 60-minute tape, press 6 and 0.

In a few seconds, the tracks to be recorded on each side of the tape are determined.

f, g or MULTI JOG are also available to designate

the tape length.

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).

 

The AI edit recording function cannot be used with discs containing 31 tracks or more. “TR OVER” is displayed if this is attempted.

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