Preventing Accidental
Erasure
Cassette tapes have two eraseprotection tabs, one for each side.
When a tab is in place, you can record on that side.
To protect a recording from being accidentally recorded over or erased, use a screwdriver to remove one or both of the cassette tape’s eraseprotection tabs. This prevents
RECORD
from being pressed.
TAPE TIPS
Recommended Tapes
Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the recording. We recommend extended-range or low noise type 1 regular length (60 or 90-minute) normal-bias cassette tapes. We do not recommend long-play cassette tapes such as C-120s because they are thin and can easily tangle.
Recording Over or Erasing a
Cassette Tape
To record over a cassette tape, simply record as usual. The cassette deck records over the previous recording.
You can quickly erase both sides of a cassette tape using a bulk tape eraser available at your local RadioShack store.
Illustration
If you later decide to record on a tape side after you have removed the erase-protection tab, place a piece of strong plastic tape over that side’s erase-protection hole. Be sure you cover only the hole originally covered by the erase-protection tab.
