Recording on MD (continued)

Recording and track numbers

MD track numbers are used to search the beginning of a track or programming tracks.

÷Track numbers are assigned automati- cally in the following cases:

-When the CD track changes during digital recording from CD to MD.

-When audio is input after a no-sound period of more than 2 seconds.

-When low-level sections have contin- ued during recording of classic music, etc.

-When the MD REC key is pressed in record-pause mode to resume record- ing.

÷When the TRACK EDIT key on the re- mote is pressed during editing, a new track number is assigned at that position.

÷Unnecessary track numbers can be re- moved by the following operations:

-EDIT (page 42) for erasing unneces- sary tracks.

-COMBINE (page 39) for erasing an unnecessary track number by combin- ing two tracks.

÷The MD cannot be inserted or ejected while the

unit is in the STANDBY mode. Do not force insert an MD in the STANDBY mode, for this will lead to malfunction.

÷When recording a CD onto an MD, the digital recording is set automatically.

When recording a radio broadcast on an MD, the analog recording is set automatically.

÷It is convenient to use the MD O.T.E. recording when recording a CD onto an MD (page 18).

The MD records signals in two ways; "digital recording" for directly recording the digital signal output from the CD and "analog recording" for recording an analog signal by converting it to a digital signal.
