Press the e button on the CD player. The MD recorder then enters the recording standby mode.

Note

For analog recording, set the input selector of the A-905X to the CD position and keep it placed in that position during recording. Changing the input selector setting causes the MD recorder to stop and then enter the recording standby mode.

2 Start playing the CD.

The MD recorder starts recording as soon as the CD starts playing.

If your cassette deck is also in the recording standby mode, it starts recording simultaneously.

When playing of the CD completes, the MD recorder stops recording and enters the recording standby mode.
