RECORDING TIPS
• Tape quality greatly affects the quality of
the recording. We recommend
RadioShack Supertape Extended
Range or Low-Noise Type 1 tape. We
do not recommend long-play cassette
tapes, such as C-120s, because they
are thin and can easily tangle in the cas-
sette mechanism. For low-noise, side-
range recordings, use normal-bias tape.
• Before recording, be sure the tape you
are using has its erase-protection tabs in
place. See “Preventing Accidental Era-
sure” on Page 15.
• Recording automatically stops when the
tape in TAPE 1 reaches the end. To
record on the other side, turn over the
tape.
