Notes
• You cannot pause during a duplicate process.
• Before you start duplication, make sure that the
player has finished loading the cassette.
• The duplication starts after the i.LINK
communication is established so that the first part of
the source tape is dropped on the copied tape. Play
back the source tape from the preceding point.
• If the player has an auto repeat function, set the
function to off.
• You may not be able to duplicate the first part of the
source tape. Locate the recorded portion on the
source tape, then start duplicating.
• If there is a blank portion on the tape, the first part of
the recorded portion that follows may be dropped on
the copied tape.
• If you start duplication at some midpoint in the tape,
the search function may not work correctly on the
copied tape or problems may occur when editing. It is
recommended that you select AUTOq
AUTOq for the duplicate mode.
Detecting a blank portion during
duplication
If the unit detects a blank portion on the source tape
during duplication, the skip function will automatically
skip the blank portion, reducing the length of the
recorded part of the tape. (This function is available
only when the duplicate mode is AUTOq
AUTOq.)
The operations of the player and recorder (this unit)
when a blank portion is detected are as follows:
Detected status on
source tape
Detects a blank portion
10 seconds after detection
of a blank portion
or
Detects next recorded
portion
Returns to the location
immediately before the
blank portion ends
This unit performs the above operations automatically,
reducing the blank portion by 10 or more seconds in
duplicating a tape.
Notes
• If the duplicate mode has been set to MANUALq,
this unit will not skip a blank portion even if detects
one.
• Depending on the specifications, the skip function
may not work on some players.
• When this unit resumes duplication, the first part of
the recorded portion on the source tape may be
dropped on the copied tape.
• A recorded portion of less than one minute between
two blank portions may not be duplicated.
