9 – MD recording from an external source—Recording cautions

To eject the disc from the deck, press the EJECT key during stop mode.

NOTE

When “UTOC Writing!” is flashing on the display, data on the recorded contents is being written onto the disc.

During this process, if the power cord is unplugged from the power source, or the unit is moved or dis- turbed, this essential data cannot be correctly recorded on the disc.

Recording cautions

When “W_Protected!” is displayed

The inserted MD cannot be recorded, or a playback- only MD was inserted.

Close the write protect tab to enable recording.

Adding track numbers

Track numbers are necessary for editing and cueing operation. During recording, track numbers are entered automatically, and may also be entered man- ually either during or after recording.

Auto track function

This function automatically enters track numbers during recording.

Set this function using the AUTO TRACK key on the remote control to select "-**dB", "D-D" or "OFF".

You can also set the auto track function using the "A_TRK?" option in the REC sub-menu of the MD menu.

-**dB

If the signal falls below the Auto Track operation level for more than four seconds, a track number is automatically entered. To set this operation level, use the “A_TRK LEVEL?” option on the REC sub-menu of the MD menu. The level can be set between –30 dB to +72 dB in 6 dB increments.

D-D

When recording from digital sources, track numbers are added in accordance with the source track num- bers.

When recording from analog sources, track numbers are added when the input level drops for four seconds or more, in the same way as with the “-**dB” setting above.

NOTE

Even when the power is turned off, the Auto Track and Auto Track Level settings are retained.

Entering a track number manually

During recording: press the RECORD key at the point where you wish to begin a new track.

After recording: track numbers can be entered during editing operation. Refer to “Divide tracks” on page 42.
