TRACK PROGRAMMING FOR RECORDING This convenient feature can be used to program tracks for recording to tape. By only memorizing the total possible recording time of the tape, 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. The peak level searching function of this unit is useful for adjusting recording level on the tape deck. (For details, refer to page 22.) You can select any of four tape lengths by pressing the TAPE button.

Turn the tape over to side B. Resume recording and, at the same time, press the w or d button. Notes • It is recommended that you use a tape that is slightly longer in length than the CD you are recording, because the programmed tracks on a CD may not fit properly into the time allowed on each half of the tape. • CD synchronized recording function can be used if your tape deck is compatible with it. In this case, in step 5 and 6, press the SYNCHRO button and then press the w button. Recording automatically starts. (For details, refer to page 17.) 18 En
