AUTO

If a no-sound input has lasted for 2 seconds during recording, the track number will be incremented automatically by “1”. Usually, use this position for recording. Use this mode when recording all of the tracks in a CD. When recording music containing a continuous section with a very low level, for example when recording classic music, the track number may be incremented by “1” after such a section. In this case, cancel the track number later. It is recommended to use the MANUAL mode when recording such a kind of music.

During digital recording of CD, the track number is incremented auto- matically by “1” according to the data contained in the digital informa- tion. But the no-sound blank is not detected.

When the CD track number is increased during manual search of a CD, the track number recorded on the MD may sometimes fail to be incremented.

A nosound track may sometimes created at the moment the played CD stops.

MANUAL

With this setting, the MD track number is not incremented automati- cally during recording. Track numbers can be marked either during editing (by pressing the EDIT key) or after recording (by executing the TRACK DIVIDE operation ß).

This setting is convenient when recording a CD which has been recorded in live or which contains very low-level sound such as a classical music CD.

MONITOR key

Press to monitor the sound being input from the source while the unit is in stop mode.

When the REC INPUT is DIGITAL, the sampling rate (48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz) of the input digital signal can be displayed by pressing this key.

Press in stop mode.
