Dubbing to tape from the middle of a CD

The above procedure describes the playback and recording from the start of a disc (or the start of a programmed playback list).

To record from a point other than the ones above:

1Locate the disc to the point where the playback is to start.

2Press the disc PAUSE key to pause playback at the point where the playback is to start.

3If recording is to start at the beginning of the cas- sette, make sure the cassette is stopped, otherwise, locate the cassette to the appropriate position where recording is to start, and enter record standby mode.

Using the headphones with the MONITOR switch set to MIX will help here.

4Press the DUB 2 key. Playback starts on the disc, and recording starts on the cassette.

Recording tapes from the PHONO deck

To record from an external record deck connected through the RIAA PHONO inputs:

1Prepare for recording as described above (load a tape, set the REV MODE, etc.).

2Press the MENU key until the PHONO>XXX menu item is shown.

4Start playback of the record.

5Start recording with either the PLAY or PAUSE key.

Press STOP (cassette deck) to stop the recording. The STOP key is the only key which is enabled dur- ing phono recording.

NOTE

Turning the MULTI DIAL or pressing the SKIP keys on the remote control to select either TAPE.

Press the MULTI DIAL or ENTER on the remote control unit.

3Press the PHONO key. The PHONO indicator lights on the display.

If the tape is currently in stop mode, the tape re- winds, and the deck enters record standby mode (about eight seconds from the start of the cassette, to allow for leader tape).

If the tape deck is already in record standby mode, it will remain in record standby mode.

It is not possible to perform phono recording as described above under the following circumstances: a tape is not loaded or the tape is write-protected (the phono to tape function is disabled with no recordable tape inserted), or the tape is not either stopped or in record standby mode.

Only recording as described above is possible from the RIAA PHONO sources to tape. Manual recording is not possible.

Other recording features

Recording silences between items

At least four seconds of silence must be recorded between items on tape when using the search functions (see “Search keys” below).

When recording, press and release either of the REC MUTE keys (main or remote). With the tape moving, the record source is muted for about four seconds (the display record indicator flashes), and the deck then enters record pause mode. Press PAUSE or PLAY to re-start recording.

If the REC MUTE key is pressed while the deck is in record standby mode, four seconds of silence will be

recorded on the tape, and the deck will return to record standby mode.

If the REC MUTE key is held and pressed for longer than four seconds while recording is in progress, silence is recorded on the tape while the key is held down. The deck enters record standby mode when the key is released.

Erasing tapes

Anything previously recorded on the tape will automatically be erased when you make a new recording on it. It can also be erased by “recording” on it with the input level control set to “0”.
