Procedure for recording
1. Prepare for recording.
(See page 8.)
Note:
With TA-RW544, when recording to
Deck A only, do not insert a cassette in
Deck B. In the “
b
” mode, recording
in Deck B may start consecutively.
2. Press the DECK A/B button to
select the appropriate Deck A or
B, and press the RESET button
to return the tape counter to
[0000].
3. Begin playing the source compo-
nent.
4. Press the
t
button.
5. While observing the peak level
indicators, adjust the recording
level and balance.
• Use the REC LEVEL knob to adjust the
recording level.
• With TA-RW544, adjust the REC
BALANCE knob so that the left and
right channels have approximately the
same levels. This knob is normally at
the center position.
• When using metal cassettes, the REC
LEVEL knob should be adjusted so that
+3 dB indicators light periodically.
When using other kinds of tapes, the 0
dB indicator should light periodically.
(See “Making Good Sound Record-

recording standby status.
• Temporarily stop CD (or LP) play.
• Rewind the tape to the portion you wish
to start playback.
