TAPE TIPS

Erasing Tapes

If you record on a previously recorded tape, you re-
place the old recording with the new one. If you need
to quickly erase an entire tape, you might prefer to
use a bulk eraser (available at your local RadioShack
store).

Note: If you use metal or high-bias type tape, the re-
corded sound may not be erased properly.

Preventing Accidental Erasure

Cassettes have two erase-protection tabs — one for
each side. When a tab is in place, you can record on
that side.

To prevent accidental erasure of a tape recording,
use a screwdriver to remove one or both of the cas-
sette tape’s erase-protection tabs. This prevents

from being pressed.
