Notes on recording using MUSIC CATCHER:

Recording operations are to be performed in the CD/MP3 mode.

Recordable media are CD-DAs only.

Discs (CD-R/CD-RW) created by copying on a music recorder cannot be recorded.

MP3/WMA discs cannot be recorded.

Some CDs may show a subtractive time indi- cation in the area between tracks when they are played back. A between-tracks area is not recorded in such a CD.

In recording using MUSIC CATCHER, some amount of silent time is created between the tracks.

If the disc contains some tracks that have been already recorded, the other tracks are recorded.

Folder and file names are added automatically during recording. These folder and file names cannot be changed. (The file names corre- spond to the track Nos. on the CD.)

If the disc is not recordable, “NO REC DISC” shows on the display.

If the disc contains some tracks previously re- corded, “INCLUDED” shows on the display.

If there is no empty folder available, “FOLDER FULL” shows on the display.

When the memory capacity is used up,

MEMORY FULL” shows on the display and recording is canceled.

Recording cannot be performed during SCN, RPT, and RDM. In such cases, “BUSY” shows on the display.

• The [ ], [a], [d], [BND] and [SCN/PRT/ RDM] buttons are invalid during recording. When these buttons are pressed, “INVALID” shows on the display.

Recording operation (REC function)

Recording using MUSIC CATCHER is performed in the CD/MP3 mode and the following 2 recording modes are available: “TRACK REC” to record only one track currently being played back and “DISC REC” to record all tracks on the CD.
