TRACK PROGRAMMING FOR RECORDING TO TAPE

This convenient feature can be used to program tracks on a disc for recording to tape. By only memorizing the tape’s total possible recording time, the unit will automatically program tracks or help you to program tracks so they will fit onto the tape with the least amount of unrecorded space remaining at each end of the tape. Additionally, this function will insert sufficient time space between programmed tracks automatically so that the tape deck can perform blank search operations correctly.

REPEAT

 

*By pressing the REPEAT button, the unit automatically programs tracks for side A and side B separately considering the tape’s total time.

5 Begin recording on the tape deck and press the PLAY button on this unit at the same time.

6 The unit will pause at the end of side A of the tape. Turn the tape over to side B. Resume recording and, at the same time, press the PLAY button or the PAUSE button on this unit.

Notes

All tracks may not be programmed if the tape’s length is not enough. To program all tracks, use a longer tape.

In step 4, you can check the program data for side A and sideB.
