Features
ge
Simultaneous
Dual
Recording
and
Quick
Double
Auto
Reverse
Two
dual-cassette
decks
provide
playback
and
recording
capabilities
in
both
A
and
B
transports.
Plus
high-speed
dubbing
from
A
to
B,
or
recording
of
two
tapes
at
the
same
time
from
the
same
source.
Extended
continuous
recording
and
playback
using
both
decks
is
also
possible.
And
Onkyo’s
Quick
Auto
Reverse
virtually
eliminates
a
break
in
the
music
during
tape-direction
change.
Remote-Operated

Whether
you
open

trays
with
the
supplied
remote
control
or
the
front
panel
feathertouch
keys,
you'll
appreciate
the
unusually
swift
and
quiet
reaction
the
separate
tray
motors
provide,
not
to
mention
the
unprecedented,
striking
design.

Random
Play
Another
Onkyo
original
—
random
play
from
a
cassette
deck.
While
Deck
A
is
playing
a
song,
Deck
B
randomly
selects
the
next
number
and
begins
playing
immediately
—
without
a
break
in
the
music
—
when
the
song
on
Deck
A
ends,
and
vice
versa.
Dual
Real
Time
Counters
(4-Digit)
Each
deck
has
its
own
real
time
counter,
making
it
easy
to
locate
specific
sections
and
perform
other
editing
operations.
Both
timers
can
display
the
elapsed
time
or
remaining
time.
