To check the remaining disc time

Whilst recording, you can check the remaining time available on the disc.

Press the DISPLAY button whilst recording or whilst in the recording pause mode.

Remaining recordable time

When the DISPLAY button is pressed again, the unit will return to the initial dis- play.

Note:

The display of the remaining disc time may vary slightly from the actual remain- ing time. (Page 39)

To create your own track numbers whilst recording

You can create your own track numbers at special points in a recording, so that these points can easily be found later.

At any point where you want to create a track number whilst recording, press the REC button (Remote control: press the BASS button).

The track number will be written on the disc and the recording will continue un- interrupted.

Double time recording in monaural mode

When recording in the monaural long-play mode, it can be about twice as long as the recording time available for a stereo record- ing. The monaural long-play mode is very useful for recording conferences or lectures.

Press the MODE button whilst the record- ing is paused.

Each time this button is pressed, the dis- play will switch between the stereo mode and the monaural long-play mode.

Lights up whilst in the monaural long-play mode.

Notes:

If input is from a stereo source, the sounds from the left and right channels will be combined.

Although the monitor sound you hear in the earphones whilst recording is in ste- reo, recording will be monaural.

MiniDiscs recorded in the monaural long-play mode may not play on other MD players.

When a recording is made in the mon- aural long-play mode, you will be able to play back the MiniDisc twice as fast as the normal playback speed. (Page 25)

When the unit is stopped after a record- ing has been made in the monaural long- play mode, the recording mode will re- turn to the stereo mode automatically.
