About CD SYNC (synchronized) recording

With this feature, the cassette deck records a CD synchronizing with the length of the tracks on the CD, so you do not have to worry about the tape direction or remaining time while recording.

This stereo system uses the Fade Synchronized recording feature. With this feature, the deck slowly fades out a recording so that a track is not abruptly cut off at the end of the tape.

If the tape reaches the end of its front side while recording a track, the deck re-records it automatically after rewinding the tape to the beginning of the track. This time, the track is recorded with a fadeout at the end of the tape. (Recording ends at this point if it is a single-sided recording.)

Recording in the original track order of the CD

When the track order has been programmed and the total length of the tracks to be recorded is shorter than the length of one side of the tape, the unit automatically operates as follows:

When the CD player is paused, the deck continues recording silence until it reaches the end of the front side; then it reverses the tape and starts recording.
