CASSETTES
DIFFERENT CASSETTE SORTS
On your DCC recorder you can use Digital Compact Cassettes
(DCC) and conventional Analogue Compact Cassettes (ACC).
Both of these cassette sorts are available on the market with
different tape length and material.
~— Digital Compact Cassettes can be used for playback and
recording on your unit.
~ Analogue Compact Cassettes can only be used for playback
on your unit.
The DCC cassette can be divided into two sorts:
DCC PRERECORDED
These cassettes can be bought prerecorded in the shop.
Prerecorded cassettes contain also information on the album,
like the album title, artist, track title, track number, total tracks,
time (track time, absolute time, remaining time and counter)
and tape side information.
It is not possible to make a recording on these cassettes
yourself.
DCC USER-RECORDED
Cassettes that you have recorded yourself from different
sources.
¢ Track and time information is automatically recorded when
the APPEND key is used (see chapter RECORDING).
When the recording is done with the RECORD key on an
area of the tape that already contains a recording or directly
after the last recording (APPEND) track and time information
will also be available.
This information will not be recorded when the recording is
done in the middle of a blank area on the tape with the use
of the RECORD key.
Note: when playback is started in the middle of a track, the
time and track information may not yet be known by your
unit. The display will then show '~—'.
As soon as a new track is detected the track and time
information will be shown on the display again.
Note: TEXT INFO cannot be recorded.
ANALOGUE COMPACT CASSETTES
© Conventional analogue compact cassettes can be played
back on your unit. During playback of these cassettes the
display will show the counter setting.
CASSETTE MAINTENANCE
Keep the cassettes at room temperature and avoid leaving
them in the sun or too close to magnets and transformers or
e.g. recorders, radios, TV's and loudspeakers.
Do not push the tape protection of DCC cassettes aside and
avoid touching the tape.
PROTECTING A CASSETTE AGAINST RECORDING
Accidental erasure of recordings made on your DCC cassettes
can be prevented by sliding the red switch on the back of your
cassette upward as shown below.
No recording will then be possible on this tape.
