Recording

This chapter explains how to record the selected input
source to an audio component with recording capability,
and how to dub from one cassette recorder to another.

Recording the Input Source

The effect of a graphic equalizer connected to the TAPE
2 IN/OUT jacks will not be recorded.
1 Use the input selector buttons to
select the component that you
want to record.
• You can connect your recorder to the
TAPE 1 or TAPE 2 OUT jacks.
• The FM, AM, PHONO, and CD
input sources can be recorded via the
TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 OUT jacks
simultaneously.
• You can listen to the source during
recording, and the TX-8011's
VOLUME, BASS, TREBLE, and
BALANCE controls have no effect
on recording.
2 Start recording on the recorder
connected to the TAPE 1 OUT
or TAPE 2 OUT jacks.
3
Start playback on the source
component.

Tape-to-tape Dubbing

By connecting a cassette recorder to the TAPE 2 OUT
jacks, you can copy tapes from the cassette recorder
that's connected to the TAPE 1 IN jacks.
1
Prepare the cassette recorders.
2 Press the [TAPE 1] button.
3 Start recording on the cassette
recorder that's connected to the
TAPE 2 OUT jacks, and start play-
back on the cassette recorder
that's connected to the TAPE 1 IN
jacks.
Note:
• You cannot copy from TAPE 2 to TAPE 1.

Monitoring While Recording

Normally, the sound you hear while recording is the
sound input to the TX-8011. If you have a 3-head tape
recorder (i.e., separate erase, record, and play heads),
you can monitor the sound that's just been recorded onto
tape while recording is in progress. This allows you to
adjust the recording level on the 3-head tape recorder
and hear the result immediately.
