a USB device (size up 16GB max).
Note: the section below shows how to encode to USB from CDI:
MP3 ENCODING FROM CD (RECORDING FROM THE “CDI”PLAYER IS RECOMMENDED)
ENCODING ONE CD TRACK OR A COMPLETE DISC
1. Plug the USB device (e.g. a Flash Drive) that you wish to record onto into the USB Port (8.) - make sure it has enough
memory to allow encoding and only contains MP3 format files.
2. Select the CD I mode by TAPPING the “ Function“ button (22.) and set it in STOP mode. The CD I operation display
area (2.) will show the TOC (Table of Contents) on the disc in CD I.
3. Tap the “USB Record“ button (11.) to start encoding. The display will show “ONE”, tap the USB skip or
buttons to select one track or all tracks, the CDI operation display will show “ONE” or “ALL” accordingly.
4. Tap the “USB “ REC” button (11.) to confirm the encoding. The system will start playback automatically and the
& icons will be flashing. This indicates the CDI encoding has now started.
5. After the encoding procedure is finished, the CD I and Encoding will stop.
ENCODING CD TRACKS BY PROGRAM
1. Select the desired tracks by following the same procedure as for “CD/MP3 programming”.
2. Follow steps 3 & 4 above as for CD I encoding.
Notes:
- The recording speed is 1:1 and according to the actual playing time of the CD track.
- The system will create an “Audio“ folder and then store the encoded track in it.
- The recording format is pre-set at MP3 bit rate: 128 kbps, Sampling rate: 44.1kHz.
- Song titles will not be recorded during encoding.
- To interrupt the recording, tap the “USB REC“ button (11.) again during recording.

5. Just in case it is necessary to remove the whole Stylus/pick-up assembly, use small pliers to carefully disconnect
the wires, then change to another stylus cartridge and connect the wires to the new stylus again with the pliers.
(Do not pull the pick-up wires directly as this may cause damage to the wires).
6. Refit as in the Diagrams above / .
NOTES: Always handle the stylus with care as the Sapphire needle tip is easily damaged.
When transporting the turntable it is advisable to refit the protective needle cover until the unit is going to be used
again. When removing or re-fitting the stylus, always be careful not to put too much pressure on the stylus holder and
the tone arm cartridge, to avoid causing any possible damage to them.
CASSETTE CARE
Two common causes of trouble experienced when using cassettes are:
1. Tape jamming, leading to uneven speed during playback.
2. Tape entangling, when the tape wraps itself around vital parts of the mechanism.
To avoid these problems occurring, take the following precautions:
a) Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the cassette centre window
(see fig. 1).
b) Take up any loose layers (using a pencil or ballpoint pen with hexagonal barrell) before
inserting the cassette (see fig. 2) into the mechanism.
Notes: If the cassette feels tight whilst performing this operation (see fig. 2), the tape may be
jamming due to ridges formed in the winding of the tape (visible through the centre window).
In most cases, these may be removed by fast rewinding of the cassette from one end to the
other, turning it over and repeating this action again.
Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, dust or oil, and do not touch the tape surfaces.
LISTENING TO CASSETTE TAPE
General operation
Stop / eject key press to stop all deck operation. Press again to open the cassette door.
Fast forward key & press to start rapid tape winding in either forward or revers
Fast rewind key direction. Press stop / fast rewind key eject keys when the cassette spools stop turning.
Play key press to start playing tape.
Pause key press to stop tape operation temporarily. Press again to resume play.
Record key press together with play key to start tape recording.
(deck 1 only)
Notes:
- Make sure the direction is correct when inserting a tape into the cassette slot. Some searching noise will be heard,
this is quite normal.
- It is strongly recommended the cassette tape is removed from the Cassette Player slot after each use - don’t leave
the cassette tape inside the system when you do not intend to play it.
COMPACT DISC CARE
To remove a disc from its storage case, tap down on the centre of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the
edges. Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s recorded surface with a soft cloth. Unlike
conventional Vinyl or Shellac records, compact discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris, so a gentle
wipe with a soft, lint-free dry and clean cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the
outside of the disc. Never use detergents or abrasive cleaners to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.
Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on sound reproduction quality. Never fix labels to the
surface of compact discs or write on them, except very gently with a specialist CD-R Pen.

may be possible to erase all tracks.
AUX-IN CONNECTION & PLAYBACK
Connect another audio device, e.g. a (portable) CD or Cassette Player, or other tape player, MP3 player or Radio to this
system via a cord with 3.5mm dia. plugs (not supplied). Connect one end of this cord to the 3.5mm dia. Headphone Jack
on the external device and the other end to the Aux-in jack (18.) on the front panel of this unit.
When connected in this way it is possible to either play back or record the music on the connected device.
1. Tap the Function button (22.) to select AUX mode.
2. Plug the external device’s connection lead into the Aux-in jack (18.) of this unit.
3. Start playing back the music on your external device and adjust the volume by turning the VOLUME knob (23.) or tap
the VOL -/+ buttons on the Remote Control (62.).
Notes:
– If you experience any sound distortion, reduce the volume level on your auxiliary device.
– Remember to unplug the external device if you wish to play a record or the turntable will not be able to rotate
12
Notes:
- The recording speed is 1:1 and the same as the actual playing time of the playing source.
- To suspend the recording process, tap the “ CD II Play/Pause ” button (28.), “ bUSY “ will flash for a second on the
LCD display - a new recording track number will be generated and the recording will be paused. To re-start the
recording, tap the CD II “Play/Pause ” button (28.) again, the play indicator “ “will show on the LCD display.
- When the capacity of the disc CD-R is full, the word “FULL” will appear on the display – tap the “ CD II Stop ” button
(19.) and change to another empty/blank CD-R disc to continue recording.
B) RECORDING SETTINGS
i) RECORDING LEVEL
The recording level can be adjusted with the REC LEVEL -/REC LEVEL + buttons (59/60) to avoid distortion if the record
source level is too high.
ii) TRACK SEPARATION DURING CD RECORDING
It is possible to separate the music tracks that are being recorded track-after-track during recording by using either the
Auto (a) or Manual (b) mode:
a) Auto mode
Tap the “ AUTO/MANUAL“ button (26.) when getting ready to use the recording function, the LCD display will show -20db, -
30db, -40db, and the “AUTO TRACK” icon will appear on the LCD display.
When the recording sound level has dropped below the -20 / -30 / -40dB (recording signal) respectively, the track that is
currently being recorded will end and at that moment a new track will be generated – after which recording the next track
will automatically continue.
Note: It is recommended to set a lower recording level for a music source with clear performance - such as a USB
device, and a higher recording level for a higher noise music source - such as a vinyl record (Phono):
“ – 20db or – 30db “ – for recording from USB or Aux-in with a digital music source.
“ – 30db or – 40db “ – for recording from Tape or Phono mode.
“ ------- “ – auto mode off.
The above is just a recommendation, the actual performance varies and is affected by the differences in music source. If
the cut-off is always misjudged for certain music files, it is recommended to use the Manual Mode (b) instead.
b) Manual mode
At anytime during recording (in any mode), straight after a track has finished playing, tap the “CD II Track Separation “
“ button (24.) on the front panel (or on the Remote Control) once - and the system will generate a new track and continue
recording it. The word “bUSY “ will briefly show on the LCD display, which indicates the unit is successfully creating a
new track. After the last track being recorded has finished playing, stop the music source playing and also stop the CD II
recording by TAPPING the “ ” Stop button (19.).
iii) FINALIZING A CD-R(W) DISC
You must convert the CD-R(W) disc into a standard Audio CD before you can play it back in any another Audio CD player,
including CD I.This process is known as “FINALIZING” - a table of contents (TOC) will be written on the CD at the same
time. The procedure is as follows:
1. Select the CD II function mode, ensure the recorded CD-R(W) disc to be finalized is in the CD II tray.
2. Ensure the CD is not playing, and then tap the FINALIZE button (13.). “ Fin-d “ appears on the CD Recorder operation
display. (If you wish to quit the finalizing mode for any reason, tap the “CD II Stop ” button).
3. Tap the “CD II Play/Pause ” button (28.) to start finalizing and the CD Recorder operation display will show
“ bUSY“ during this process.
4. After finalizing has completed, the CD tray will open automatically and “OPEN“ will appear on the display.
Notes:
– The time it takes to finalize a disc depends on the contents of the recorded disc –
– this may take up to 15 minutes.
– No buttons will be working during the finalizing process.
– Never turn the power off or unplug the power cord during the finalizing process.
– Once recorded on and after finalizing a disc you cannot record again on a “CD-R” disc or erase any tracks.
– Although a finalized “CD-R” disc may play on other CD Players, remember that a finalized “CD-RW” disc is not
guaranteed to play on all other CD Players.
– Due to differences in compatibility with the unit of CD-R or CD-RW discs, please change to another brand, or even
another one in the pack, if you find the performance of the recording is not satisfactory. This is not a product fault
