Recording onto an MD from any of the sound sources is simple. Just insert an MD to the Unit, have the source ready, make one or two settings, and you are ready to record. For each source, the procedure is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But first, here are a few things to make your recordings better.
Things To Know Before You Start
(See "Checking the Remaining Time of the MD for CD Synchro Recording" mentioned on page 15.)
Standard Recording
You can record from the tuner or an auxiliary equipment to an MD as follows.
Recording —————————————
■It should be noted that it may be unlawful to
■Carefully read the “Rules of Digital Dubbing” on page 24.
■The MD Recorder supports the following sampling frequency for the CD Player of the Unit as a digital source.
Sampling frequency: 44.1 kHz.
■The recording level, which is the volume at which the new MD is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME level of the System. Nor it is affected by ad- justing the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the re- cording level.
■Note that it takes 10 seconds until the MD REC button becomes effective after the MD has been inserted.
■The accidental erasure prevention knob is provided on the back of an MD cartridge to prevent accidental erasure or recording. It must be set to the close position beforehand.

■When you stick an adhesive label onto the MD cartridge, adhere it securely. If it peels off, ejection trouble, etc. will occur.
Preparation Before Recording ———
■Be sure that the MD is not the Play-only type one.
■Be sure that the accidental erasure prevention knob of the MD cartridge is set to the close position. Otherwise, "DISC PRO- TECTED" will appear when you try to record a signal to the MD.
■Be sure that the MD has enough space for recording. If not, car- ry out ALL ERASE or ERASE function to erase all the tracks or desired tracks in the MD. (See pages 17 and 18.) You can check the recordable remaining time of the MD in Stop mode or during recording by pressing the DISPLAY/CHARA. button on the Unit or the DISPLAY button on the Remote Control.
■1. Insert a MD with its label side up. ■2. Prepare one of the sources.
Tuner: Tune in to a station.
AUX IN:Press the AUX button and play the auxiliary equip- ment.
•For recording from the CD, see "CD Synchro Recording" on page 15.
■3. Press the MD REC button on the Unit to start recording.
The “MD REC” indicator lights up on the display and the track number is increased by 1. When recording starts, the remaining time (recordable capacity) appears on the display.
Remaining time
■4. Press the 7 button to stop recording.
The “MD REC” indicator goes out and "UTOCwriting" appears on the display, indicating that the recording is successfully completed. Then, the MD stops.
•If the MD becomes full before pressing the 7 button, the
recording will be terminated after indicating “UTOCwriting”. To pause the recording, press the MD REC button on the Unit. The “MD REC” indicator starts blinking on the display and the track number is increased by 1 for the next recording.
To cancel pause, press the MD REC button on the Unit again. The “MD REC” indicator lights up on the display and recording resumes.
Checking the Remaining Time of the MD for Tuner/AUX Recording
You can see the recordable remaining time of the MD in Stop mode. In Stop mode, press the DISPLAY/CHARA. button on the Unit or the DISPLAY button on the Remote Control. Each time you press the button, the display changes as follows.
Sound source=Remaining time (recordable capacity) of MD (e.g. REM. 23:00)=Clock=(back to the beginning)
