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 —————————————

■

It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record per-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 work embodied therein.

■

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 reverse (

2

) direction. Therefore, make sure that the tape direction is forward ( 3 ) when recording with Reverse mode on.

■

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.

■

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.

■

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.

Type II detection slot

REC indicator

Reverse

CAUTION: If a recording you make has excessive noise or static, the System 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.

The sources are CD, Tuner, auxiliary equipment, Rhythm Machine, microphone and guitar. The microphone sound and guitar sound can be mixed with any source. Also, you can mix the sound from the

Rhythm Machine with the CD or auxiliary equipment.

Be sure that the Tape Direction indicator and the tape insertion direction are as follows:

[Forward recording]

Tape Direction indicator Tape insertion direction

(Forward)

(Front view)

*Recording will be made on the tape side facing you.

• If the Tape Direction indicator 2 (Reverse) is lit, press the

TAPE 2 3 button to change the direction. (In this case, since the tape is played, you need to press the ■ button. Then, press the 4 button to rewind the tape. You may need to wind past the leader tape which cannot be recorded onto.)

• If the inserted tape is not fully rewound, press the 4 button to rewind it. You may need to wind past the leader tape which cannot be recorded onto.

Adhesive tape

■

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, before recording, wind on the leader tape first to ensure getting the beginning of the recording.

Unit.

The "REC" indicator lights up and the System starts recording.

• If you make a recording with Reverse mode on, the System will record the last song at the end of the first side onto the next side from its beginning when the song has been recorded more than 10 seconds on the first side.

If the last song has been recorded less than 10 seconds, then the previous song will again be recorded on the next side as it will not be completely recorded on the first side because of leader tape.

• After the CD Player has played the entire CD, or all the programmed tracks, the tape automatically stops.

To stop at any time during the recording process, press the e

button. The tape stops after four seconds.

Note: When making SLEEP timer settings while doing CD Direct recording, set enough time to allow for the CD to finish playing, otherwise the power will go off before recording is completed.

• Drum pad pattern : 20 pad patterns using the Drum Pads A to D on the Unit

You can play the Rhythm Machine alone or you can play it while the other music source except Tuner is played.

The following shows the functional block diagram of the Rhythm

Machine. As an example, signal flows that may be used are shown with the thick gray lines. From this example, you can see that the scratch sound and the drum pad pattern can be mixed with the

Rhythm pattern. Also, you can see that the music source (MIC and guitar in this example) can be mixed with the output of the Rhythm

Limitation on Rhythm Pattern's Sound:

The Rhythm Machine has three sound sources and the maximum number of sounds that can be generated from the Rhythm Machine at a time is three.

Since two or three sounds are used for playing the rhythm pattern, the available sounds for playing the rhythm pattern will be reduced when you generate the pad pattern and/or scratch sound. In this case, the rhythm pattern's sound will be changed.

Example:

The 8 BEAT-1 rhythm pattern you are playing uses three sounds.

• When you generate the pad pattern by pressing the Drum Pad A or when you generate the scratch sound by turning the Jog dial, the number of sounds that will be assigned to the 8 BEAT-1 rhythm pattern will be reduced to two.

• When you generate the pad pattern and scratch sound at the same time, the number of sounds that will be assigned to the 8 BEAT-1 rhythm pattern will be reduced to one

Care And Maintenance

Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.

• If there are fingerprints, etc. on the lens, gently wipe clean with a cotton swab.

Compact Discs

• Only CDs bearing this mark can be used with this System. However, continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the System.

• Remove the CD from its case by holding it at the edges while pressing the case’s center hole lightly.

• Do not touch the shiny surface of the CD, or bend the CD.

• Put the CD back in its case after use to prevent warping.

• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the CD when placing it back in the case.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.

• A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

CAUTION: Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.

General Notes

In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs and the mechanism clean.

• Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.

• Keep the system’s CD cover closed when not in use.

Cleaning the lens

If the lens in the CD pickup is dirty, dropout, etc., could degrade sound.

Open the CD cover and clean the lens as shown.

• Use a blower (available from a camera store) to blow dust off the lens.

Blower

Lens

Moisture Condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the

System in the following cases:

• After turning on heating in the room.

• In a damp room.

• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place.

Should this occur, the System may malfunction.

In this case, leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.

Cassette Tapes

• If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in the cassette. Take up the slack by inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotating.

• Do not touch the tape surface.

• Do not store the tape:

In dusty places

In direct sunlight or heat

In moist areas

On a TV or speaker

Near a magnet

Cassette Deck

• If the heads, capstans, or pinch-rollers of the Cassette Deck become dirty, the following may occur:

Loss of sound quality

Discontinuous sound

Fading

Incomplete erasure

Difficulty recording

• Clean the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers using a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.

Capstans

Pinch-rollers

Erase head

Record/play head
