Sony 3-287-077-14(2) Manual

You can record on a TYPE I (normal) tape 
in three ways:

You can record an entire disc onto a tape.

You can record just the portions you like 
from a sound source, including connected 
audio components.

You can “mix” sounds by playing one of 
the components and singing or speaking 
into a microphone (not supplied). The 
mixed sound can be recorded onto a tape.

Prepare the recording source.
Select the source you want to record.

Press CD (RM-AMU006) or press 
FUNCTION +/– (RM-AMU008) 
repeatedly (or press CD on the unit) to 
select the CD function. Load the disc 
you want to record, and press DISC 
SKIP repeatedly to select the disc.
To select the play mode, press PLAY 
MODE repeatedly in stop mode (see 
“To change the play mode” (page 17)).
To record your favorite CD tracks or 
MP3 files in the order you want, 
perform steps 2 to 6 of “Creating your 
own program” (page 27).

To record sound from a microphone, 
press CD (RM-AMU006) or press 
FUNCTION +/– (RM-AMU008) 
repeatedly (or press CD on the unit) to

same time. 

The disc starts playing automatically 
after 10 seconds.

If there is noise while recording from 
the tuner, reposition the antenna to 
reduce the noise.
While recording, you cannot listen to 
other sources. Otherwise, recording 
stops.

• We recommend that you press X on the tape 

deck first, then press x Z on the tape deck to 
avoid noise being recorded when you stop 
recording.

• You cannot eject the disc, select another disc, 

track or file, pause playback or find a point in 
the track or file during CD-TAPE Synchro 
Recording.
