CD-3312 (140-0537) Recording A Cassette Tape Faxback Doc. # 6484 You can record from the CD player or radio. Notes: Before recording, be sure the erase-protection tabs are in place on the cassette tape you are recording onto. Before you load a cassette tape for recording, turn the cassette's hub with your finger or a pencil to move the tape past its leader. Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the recording. We recommend regular length (60-minute or 90-minute) cassette tapes. Long-play cassette tapes such as C-120s are not recommended. For low-noise, wide-range recordings, use normal-bias tape.
