Notes on ORC setting
•Each time you eject the cassette, the ORC setting will be cancelled. If necessary, set the setting.
•You cannot use this setting on a tape with the red mark on the cassette exposed.
(i. e. the tape is write-protected)
•When you set ORC TO SET, a non-recorded section of about 0.1 second appears on the tape.
However, note that this non-recorded section disappears from the tape when you continue recording
from this section.
•To check if you have already set the ORC setting, select ORC TO SET in the menu settings. “ORC
ON” is displayed if ORC TO SET is already set.
