Using the Cassette Deck
(Recording)
BEAT CUT
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 pro-
cedure 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 may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted
material without the consent of the copyright owner.
When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set
Reverse mode to do so. Recording automatically stops after re-
2
cording in the direction. Therefore, make sure that the tape di-
3
rection is 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 ad-
just 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 is used to detect the tape type.
Type I and Type II tapes can be used for recording.

When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well.
For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section.
Note: At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape
which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording CDs or radio
broadcasts, wind on the leader tape first to ensure getting the begin-
ning of the recording.
CAUTION: If a recording you make has excessive
noise or static, the Unit 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.
