Select a recording source:

To record from the radio

Tune in to a station you want to record (see “Listening to the Radio”). When recording FM programmes, make sure the earphones are plugged in as they serve as an aerial.

To record with the microphone

Connect the supplied microphone to the MIC (PLUG IN POWER) jack. You can use the supplied microphone stand as illustrated.

Slide REC.

“REC” appears in the display and recording starts after about two seconds. Recording stops at the end of the side.

Notes

Do not use a CrO2 (TYPE II) or metal (TYPE IV) tape, otherwise the sound may be distorted when you play back the tape, or the previous recording may not be erased completely.

Do not connect or disconnect the headphones to 2REMOTE while recording from the radio. The recording condition may change abruptly, or noise may be recorded.

When recording with the microphone, do not place it near a lamp cord or a fluorescent lamp to avoid noise interference.

If a howling effect occurs, turn down the volume.

While recording, only the p(stop) operation functions.

MB/GRV mode does not affect recording.

During recording, the LCD menu function is inoperable.

To stop recording
