Cassette Tapes
High quality 110-minute tapes are recommended for use in the
VersaCorder.ln tests, these tapes provide a balance between maximum
play/recording time and prolonged tape life. Audio cassette tapes are
available up to 150 minutes ,however ,the tape material is thin and may
stretch or break during recording or playback. With the extra long tapes,
any cassette machine is more likely to "eat" the tape.
Inserting Cassette Tapes
1) Press the EJECT Button to open the lid.
2) lnsert the casette.
3) Once the tape is insertd correctly, close the cassette door gently.
The VersaCorder has the ability to record in NORMAL speed for best
audio quality.When extened recordings of talk radio, speeches and
lectures, telephone conversations, or any format that does not require a
high-fidelety recording is desired ,the VersaCorder can be switched into
QUARTER speed mode.This mode will record 4times longer than
NORMAL speed , however,record quality for music is reduced.lf a
rdcording is made in QUARTER speed ,it can only be played back in a
QUARTER speed player (unless you want it to sound like a chipmunk).
