Before Recording to a MiniDisc

MD-E9000H

1

■Differences from tape recordings

You cannot record music on the reverse side of a MiniDisc.

MiniDiscs are single sided and should only be inserted with the correct side up.

■About track numbers

When recording from a CD

New track numbers will be created automatically according to the original tracks (Synchro mark function).

You do not need to search for the starting point of recording.

The unit automatically finds the point at which recording can start. Recording will start from that point.

You can check the total or remaining recordable time (possible recording) be- fore recording.

This lets you plan a recording session so that the last song will not come to an abrupt end.

■Disc writing (TOC)

The TOC (Table of Contents) is information on track numbers and recording areas to allow the unit to recognise musical selections or sounds.

The entire MiniDisc is controlled depending on this TOC, which enables the unit to

find the beginning of a track quickly or to automatically record in a vacant area.

When you start recording or edit-

 

 

ing, "TOC" will appear in the dis-

 

 

play window.

 

 

This indicates that information in

 

 

the TOC is now being changed ac-

being performed. (The changed

numbers, track names, etc.)

the sound

The TOC is recorded when

●you stop recording.

●you switch to another input source.

●you eject the MiniDisc.

●you enter the stand-by mode.

Do NOT unplug the unit whilst the TOC is being recorded ("TOC" is flashing) and do NOT impart shock to the unit. Otherwise, TOC will not be correctly recorded, and consequently proper playback may not be possible.

Track C

●When you record from a CD to a MiniDisc, the track numbers recorded on the MiniDisc may not match the track numbers on the CD.

If this happens, correct the track numbers using the DIVIDE (page 38) and COM- BINE (page 38) functions after recording.

Recordings cannot be made in the following situations.

●If you try recording on a playback-only MiniDisc (commercially available music MiniDisc).

●If a MiniDisc is protected against accidental erasure (page 45).

●If there is no more recording space left on the disc (page 46).

●When the "TOC FULL" message appears (page 46).

●If a disc's TOC has been damaged.

Notes:

●When recording important selections, be sure to make a preliminary test to ensure that the desired material is being properly recorded.

●The VOLUME, X-BASS and EQUALIZER controls can be adjusted with no effect to the recorded signal (Variable Sound Monitor).

■About ATRAC 3

The ATRAC (Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding) system compresses the sound data into 1/5 by cutting out the inaudible sound. Since the sound is selected based on psychoacoustics masking, the sound quality is not impaired.

This unit is equipped with the ATRAC 3 compressing system that can reduce the sound data to 1/10 or 1/20 of its original size.

By employing this system, 2 times and 4 times long recordings are enabled in stereo mode.
