TAPE TIPS

Recommended Tapes

Tape quality greatly affects the quality
of the recording. We recommend ex-
tended-range or low noise Type 1 reg-
ular length (60- or 90-minute) normal-
bias cassette tapes. We do not recom-
mend long-play cassette tapes such as
C-120s because they are thin and can
easily tangle.

Erasing a Cassette Tape

To record over a cassette tape, simply
record as usual. The cassette deck
records over the previous recording.
