For simplicity, only the items described in this section are shown here. Reverse Mode indicator Recording onto a tape from any of the sound sources is simple. Just place a tape in the Cassette Deck, have the source ready, make one or two settings, and you're ready to record. For each source the procedure is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But first, here are a few things to make your recordings better. Things to know before you start recording s It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re- record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable programme and in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied therein. s When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set Reverse mode to do so. Recording automatically stops after recording in the 2 direction. Therefore, make sure that the tape direction is 3 when recording with Reverse mode on. s The recording level, which is the volume at which the new tape is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control on the System. Nor is it affected by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level. s Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure or recording. Type II detection slot Adhesive tape s To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover the holes with adhesive tape first. However, when a type II tape is used, only cover part of the hole as shown, since the other part of the hole (Type II detection slot) is used to detect the tape type. s Type I and Type II tapes can be used for recording. Note: At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording CDs or radio broadcasts, wind on the leader tape first to ensure that the recording will be made without any music part lost. 14 CAUTION: If a recording you make has excessive noise or static, the Unit may have been too close to a TV which was on during the recording. Either turn off the TV or increase the distance between the TV and the System. Standard Recording You can record any sound source to tape as follows: 1 Insert a blank or erasable tape into the Cassette Deck. 2 If you want to record on both sides of a tape, press the REV. MODE button on the Unit until the indicator is lit. • When using Reverse mode, insert the tape so that it will be recorded in the forward 3 direction. 3 Check the recording direction for the tape. Make sure that the Tape Direction indicator is the same as that for the tape in the Cassette Deck. If the directions are different, press the TAPE @ # button to correct the tape direction and then press the 7 button to stop the tape. 4 Prepare the source by, for example, tuning in a radio station or turning on connected auxiliary equipment. Note: For CD recording, refer to "CD Direct Recording" on page 15. 5 Press the REC button on the Unit. The REC indicator lights up and the System begins recording. Notes for using Reverse mode for recording When recording in Reverse mode, the System automatically stops when it reaches the end of the reverse 2 direction. To record on both sides of a tape, make sure that the recording direction for the tape inserted is forwards 3, and that the Tape Direction indicator is also forwards 3, before you start recording. To stop at any time during the recording process Press the 7 button. EN10-22.FS-V100[J]f 14 12/12/00, 10:33 AM
