(When recording from a tape or an external source)
Adjust the recording level.
Before recording, adjust the recording level. Failure to do so
could cause the recorded sound to be distorted or noisy.
1. Play the source (cassette tape or external source) to be
recorded.
2. Use the REC LEVEL knob to adjust the recording level so that
the loudest sound never lights the "OVER" indicator on the
peak level meter.
< Different sources to be recorded have different volumes. In
order to record at the optimal volume for each source, it is
necessary to adjust the recording level for each source.
< When recording from a CD, the recording level does not
need to be changed, and it cannot be adjusted.

Prepare the recording source.
