Recording CDs
You have two methods to record from a CD onto an MD.
•Synchronized Recording — Records the entire CD or the program you have made.
•First Track Recording — Records the first track of each CD.
To record a single track during play or pause
Press CD 3 MD while playing back or pausing a CD track you want to record.
The playback of that CD track is stopped, and the same track starts playing from the beginning again. This time, the MD recorder starts recording the CD track.
•When the track is recorded, both the CD player and the MD recorder stop.

2 Prepare a CD.
•Always place a CD on the CD 1 tray. If not, this function does not work.

The recording lamp on the unit lights, and First Track Recording starts from the CD on the CD 1 tray.
When the first track of the CD on the CD 1 tray is recorded, the first track of the CD on the CD 2 tray will be recorded. Recording continues until the first track of each loaded CD is recorded.
4 Replace the CDs on the trays whose disc number lamp is not lit green.
•You can change CDs to continue the First Track Recording using more than 3 CDs.
When the first track of the last loaded CD is recorded, First Track Recording stops.
