HRecording sound from an external unit

To start recording the moment the external unit starts playback (synchro recording):

MD recording will start automatically, as soon as playback starts on the external unit. This applies to both digital inputs and analog inputs.

IThe space-cut function will work automatically during synchro record- ing.

1 Load a recordable MiniDisc.

2 Press the AUX button.

ISelect the input that corresponds to the terminals where the external unit you will record from is connected.

3 Play the recording on the external unit, and adjust the recording level using the INPUT LEVEL control. (This is only necessary when recording from analog inputs.)

IIn the case of digital inputs, it is not necessary to adjust the recording level.

IThe maximum level should not exceed "0 dB".

IRecording will start automatically.

I Cancel the mode by pressing the MD button.

When the MD button is pressed, the TOC will be recorded.

If you want to perform other operations at this point, wait until this display disappears.

What is the space-cut function?

If there is silence in the playback signal that lasts 4 seconds during a synchro recording, the recording will stop automatically and the unit will enter the recording stand-by mode. Then, when sound from the playback unit resumes, recording will automatically restart.

(A space of 4 seconds is placed between tracks.)

IIf there is noise between tracks of the sound source, the synchro recording or the space-cut function may not work properly.

If this happens, make the recording manually.

IWhen you need to record tracks or audio that include very quiet passages lasting 4 seconds or more, manual recording is recom- mended.

To stop recording:

Press the MD button.

Note:

IOn some CD players, the track numbers cannot be recorded automati- cally.
