RECORDING FROM YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER (EDIT)
If you wish to make a tape recording of a disc or a programme, it
can be useful to store the recording time of the tape in the player’s
memory.
Should the disc or the programme be longer than one side of the
tape, apausewillthen be inserted automatically afterthelasttrack
which fits onto that side. This will prevent the disc or the pro¬
gramme continuing to play when the tape has already stopped.
Important!
- If the player has been connected to the amplifier via the
VARIABLE output, the T VOLUME A keys may not be used
during recording, as they affect the strength of the signal from
the player.
- If the sound level has been reduced in the PRESETS mode, it
must be returned to the sound level set on the amplifier using
CURSOR N>.
