30Synchro recording with CD playback

By connecting this unit with a KENWOOD “ ” type amplifier and CD player, which are equipped with system control jacks, using system control cords, the recording of MD can be started in synchronism with the playback of the CD player.

1Set the amplifier’s input selector to CD.

2 Put the CD player in pause mode.

3 Select the CD track to be recorded using the 4 or ¢ key. 4 Put the MD recorder in record-pause mode.

5 Start playback of the CD player.

To stop recording

Press the 7 key, then press the 0 key.

DIGITAL recording and SCMS

Note that the digital recording of Mini Discs is not possible in the following cases.

If the digital source has a copy prohibition code, “001 SCMS ON” is displayed and the unit enters record-pause mode. (This message is displayed when copy prohibition is encountered during recording of track number “001”.)

Note on the sampling rate converter

Three types of digital signals are usually used according to the sampling frequencies. The sampling frequencies vary depending on the types of digital equipment as shown below.

48 kHz

: Standard mode of DAT, B mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc.

44.1 kHz

: Standard mode of DAT, CD, MD, etc.

32 kHz

: Standard and long-hour modes of DAT, A mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc.

In general, high-quality recording based on digital signal transmission is available only when the sampling frequency of the source equipment matches that of the recorder equipment. However, this unit incorporates a sampling rate converter so that it can also record digital signals sampled at 48 kHz and 32 kHz by converting their sampling frequency into the sampling frequency of MD (44.1 kHz).

The SCMS may be activated with certain type of satellite broadcasting.

SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)

Designed for copyright protection, the SCMS is a pre- scription that copying of digital signals as they are in the digital form between digital audio equipment is allowable only for one generation.

Faded recording of MD

The fade mode of the unit is switched on/off every time the FADE key is pressed.

Recording with fade-in:

When recording is initiated during stop (or pause) in the fade mode, recording starts from ATT = - `, increases to the previously set recording level and continues at this level.

Recording with fade-out:

When recording is stopped during recording in the fade mode, the current recording level decreases to ATT = - ` then recording stops.

If recording is continued until the end of disc, fade-out occurs automatically before the unit stops recording.

Fade-in and fade-out

Fade-out : Ending of music after gradual decrease in volume.

Fade-in : Beginning of music after gradual increase in volume.
