Connect “Audio Out” on the CD/DVD player INTO the “Line IN” on the cassette recorder, using RCA jacks. If red is present but no white, use the red in the red ports and the other color (sometimes black) in the other port. Connect the same colors on BOTH devices.
Turn on DVD/CD player. Insert disc you want to copy from. Close player and press the “Stop” button on the player (or on remote if available).
Open recording deck (the side where recording can take place, usually the right side deck). Insert blank tape or old tape that you want to record over. (No longer than 90 minutes due to magnetic strips being too thin and wearing out easily during playback).
Press the record and play buttons simultaneously (ie. “at the same time”) on the Audiotape player and press the play button on the CD/DVD player after about 3 seconds of the Audiotape recording. Press play on the DVD/CD player AND at the same time press the Record/play buttons on the cassette deck. Note: This method may cause your tape to not catch the beginning of a song or speaking part from the CD you’re copying from.
Put disk away and write down a title on the tape you copied to. Insert new disk and continue recording on the tape if you have free space. To record again, simply press record on the deck and the play button on the DVD/CD player as described in the previous step. Don’t forget to turn everything off and unplug your equipment when you’re finished!
