Synchro start function
When you make a recording from compact discs, the recording will
automatically start when you press the play button on the compact
disc player. After recording has been completed the cassette deck
will create a non-recorded passage of about four seconds, and
then go into the recording standby state.
Quick-reverse function (Peck 2)
This is a function by which the unit detects the leader tape {the
transparent tape at both ends of the magnetic tape) and then
automatically reverses (in about one second) the direction of the
tape movement during playback (or recording).
