Making tape recordings

You can make tape recordings from the radio, CDs, or from an
external component connected to the auxiliary inputs. If you're
recording from CD it's more convenient to use the ASES mode—
see Automatically recording CDs on page 44.
Once recording has started, you can't switch to another compo-
nent until recording has stopped. So, for example, you can't
switch over to the tuner while you're recording a CD.
Unlike some tape decks, there's no need to set recording levels; the
deck sets the level automatically. When recording, the volume,
and other sound settings have no effect on the recording. This
means that you can record something with the volume turned
right down, if you want.
Before recording, check that the cassette erase-protect tabs have
not been broken, and that the tape is either a Type I (normal
position) or Type II (high position/C
using the XR-A390). You can't record on Type IV (metal) tapes
using this deck.
If you're recording from the start of a tape, it's a good idea to wind
the tape on a little so that you don't accidently start recording over
the leader tape. You can either do this by hand, or load the tape
into the deck and play the tape for 5–6 seconds.
1 Load a cassette into tape deck II.
Remember: You can only record using deck II.
In order to follow these instructions more easily, load the cassette
with side A facing front.
2 Check the recording direction.
If you start recording in the 3 direction, both sides of the tape
will be recorded (unless the erase protect tab for side B is
missing). If you switch sides and start recording in the 2
direction, then recording will start from side B and stop when the
end of the tape is reached.
If you need to change the direction, press 2 6 twice, then 7.
3 XR-A790 only: Turn Dolby NR on or off as required.
Using Dolby NR improves the sound quality of tape recordings
that are going to be played on Dolby NR equipped players. If the
tape is not going to be played on a Dolby NR equipped player (or
if you're not sure), you should leave Dolby NR off.
