Automatically recording CDs
(ASES)
Auto Synchro Editing System (ASES for short)
makes recording CDs (including those with
WMA/MP3 audio files) automatic. It also
makes sure that a CD track isn't spread over
two sides of a tape.
If the tape runs out midway through a CD
track, the same track is automatically
recorded from the beginning again on the
other side.
1
Prepare the tape deck for recording.
Load a blank cassette and switch Dolby NR on
or off as required. Recording starts in the
(forward) direction, so take care which way
you load the tape.
2
Load the CD you want to record.
3
Press the DVD/CD button, then press
(stop).
The CD should now be selected, but not
playing.
If you want to record the tracks in a different
order, or record only one track, use the
program play feature—see page 37 for how to
make a program list. Make sure playback is
stopped before going to the next step.
4
Press ASES to start recording.
The ASES indicator lights, followed by a 4
second pause while the tape winds past the
leader, then recording starts.
Recording finishes automatically when the
end of the disc is reached, or the tape ends
(whichever comes first).

If you want to stop recording before
the end of the CD, press
• ASES may not work correctly if the first
side of the tape finishes at the same time
as a track ends. If this happens, stop the
recording then resume on the other side
without ASES.
• You can't make ASES tape recordings of
Video CD/Super VCDs or DVD-Video
discs.
