Before you start recording (continued)

This unit’s tuner and other analog components

(e.g., a tape deck)

The analog signal is converted to digital and recorded (analog recording).

A track number is marked at the beginning of a recording, but when you turn on the Level Sync function (see page 26), track numbers are automatically marked in sync with the level of the input signal.

*For details on limitations of digital recording, see page 42.

**This signal conversion happens because this unit does not have a digital input.

Note on the track number of an MD

On an MD, the track number (track sequence), track start and end point information, etc., are recorded in the TOC* area independent of the sound information. You can edit recorded tracks quickly by modifying the TOC information.

* TOC: Table Of Contents.
