The CD-A500 is an integrated CD player and reversible cassette deck which makes CD to cassette dubbing a breeze. With the CD Sync feature, duplicating program material from CD to cassette is as easy as a single button command, ensuring that no portion of the audio program will be missed. With the A side / B side program dubbing feature, the CD-A500 keeps the operator informed as to how much time each new audio selection occupies. By taking advantage of this feature, the CD-A500 can easily be programmed to reverse the cassette deck to the tape's B side. The A side / B side program dubbing feature enables the operator to dub a CD to cassette and have the cassette deck reverse tape direction at the most appropriate time without loss of any program material.

For long format playback, the CD-A500 offers a Continuous Play function. This feature provides the ability to have continuous playback of program material going either from CD to cassette or cassette to CD. Its flexible output architecture includes RCA unbalanced outputs dedicated to the CD player in addition to the common RCA unbalanced outputs for both the CD and the cassette deck. This arrangement makes it possible to feed separate audio programs to different destinations simultaneously.

With its 3-U rackmount design, wireless remote control and flexible output architecture, the CD-A500 will appeal to musicians, commercial recording facilities and sound contractors alike.
