Figure  13-13.—Audiotape  editing  block. Figure  13-14.—Applying  splicing  tape. 45-degree cutting slot is to the right of the 90-degree 3. Cut the tape carefully with a razor blade, using slot, as shown in figure 13-13. Cut   and   splice   the   tape   using   the   following procedure: 1. Rewind the tape to the edit in point. Make sure you unwind enough tape to be placed into the editing block. Press the tape, oxide (dull) side down, into the edit block so it is held in place by the grooved slots of the  block 2.  Center  the  marked  edit  in   point  over  the 45-degree  cutting  slot  in  the  edit  block,  as  shown  in figure  13-13. NOTE: The  45-degree  slot  is  most  frequently  used, because it is a stronger bonding edit than one made from a 90-degree vertical cut. The 45-degree angle cut also reduces the chance of an audible popping sound at the edit point during playback. the diagonal slot as a guide. Remove the tape on the left side of the cut. 4. Place the recorder into the edit mode and push STOP once you find the  edit out point.  Unwind  enough tape to locate the  edit out point and center it over the 45-degree cutting slot. Cut the tape carefully at the edit mark with a razor blade. 5. Once you make the final cut, remove the loose tape from the left side of the cut and set it aside until you check the edit and run time of the program. You may need to splice in this section later. 6. Push the remaining tape ends together in the edit block so there is no gap or overlap. Join the two ends using a piece of 7/32-inch splicing tape about one inch in length (fig. 13-14). Press the splicing tape firmly over the cut. 13-31
