Useful Tips for Recording
Using these functions makes recording CDs more
convenient.
Note
The portion with the highest level may differ every time you
try the adjustment on the same disc. The difference is,
however, so slight that you won’t find any problem in
adjusting the recording level precisely.
Inserting a blank space between tracks
(Auto Space)
When the space between tracks is too short for the
AMS function to work, you can insert a blank space of
3 seconds between each track while playing. This
enables easy location of tracks using the AMS function
of the deck .
Press AUTO SPACE.
“AUTO SPACE” appears in the display.
To cancel Auto Space
Press AUTO SPACE.
Note
If you use the Auto Space function when recording, for
example, a medley or symphony, the sound may be
interrupted where the track number changes. It happens
when the track numbers are assigned in the middle of the
piece.
