Load a recordable MD.

To record using the Group Function

Press MD GROUP repeatedly until “GROUP ON” appears after step 2. Press GROUP SKIP repeatedly until “New Group” or the desired group appears after step 4.

Note

When you manually record a CD, the MD deck performs analog recording only.

Tips

If you want to record manually in the middle of a track loaded in this system, press X before step 4 to pause the playback, then press SA-CD/DVD N in step 5 to start playback.

You can check the remaining recordable time on the MD during recording by pressing DISPLAY on the MD deck.

If cyclical static noise is heard while recording an AM radio program, move the AM loop aerial to reduce the noise.

For details about LP2/LP4 recording, see “Recording for long times” on page 43.

You can adjust the recording level (page 49).

Starting recording with 6 seconds of prestored audio data

— Time Machine Recording

When recording from an FM or satellite broadcast, the first few seconds of material are often lost due to the time it takes you to ascertain the contents and press the record button. To prevent the loss of this material, the Time Machine Recording feature constantly stores the most recent audio data in a buffer memory. This lets you record the sound from 6 seconds before starting recording, as shown in the illustration below:
