Chapter 4 Duplication and Audio Dubbing Notes • You cannot pause during a duplicate process. • Before you start duplication, make sure that the player has finished loading the cassette. • The duplication starts after the i.LINK communication is established so that the first part of the source tape is dropped on the copied tape. Play back the source tape from the preceding point. • If the player has an auto repeat function, set the function to off. • You may not be able to duplicate the first part of the source tape. Locate the recorded portion on the source tape, then start duplicating. • If there is a blank portion on the tape, the first part of the recorded portion that follows may be dropped on the copied tape. • If you start duplication at some midpoint in the tape, the search function may not work correctly on the copied tape or problems may occur when editing. It is recommended that you select AUTOq or AUTOq for the duplicate mode. Detecting a blank portion during duplication If the unit detects a blank portion on the source tape during duplication, the skip function will automatically skip the blank portion, reducing the length of the recorded part of the tape. (This function is available only when the duplicate mode is AUTOq or AUTOq.) The operations of the player and recorder (this unit) when a blank portion is detected are as follows: Detected status on source tape Detects a blank portion 10 seconds after detection of a blank portion Detects next recorded portion Returns to the location immediately before the blank portion ends Player/Recorder (this unit) operation Player: Continues playing the tape. Recorder: Continues recording. Player: Continues playing the tape another 10 seconds and searches forward. Recorder: Stops. Player: Rewinds the tape at about -2 times normal speed to the location immediately before the blank portion ends. Recorder: Remains stopped. Player: After entering the playback pause mode, starts playing the tape. Recorder: After entering the recording pause mode, starts recording. This unit performs the above operations automatically, reducing the blank portion by 10 or more seconds in duplicating a tape. Notes • If the duplicate mode has been set to MANUALq, this unit will not skip a blank portion even if detects one. • Depending on the specifications, the skip function may not work on some players. • When this unit resumes duplication, the first part of the recorded portion on the source tape may be dropped on the copied tape. • A recorded portion of less than one minute between two blank portions may not be duplicated. 49 Chapter 4 Duplication and Audio Dubbing (GB)
