Recording for long times | Sony MDS-E10 manual

Recording on MDs

The digital output connectors of the mini-disk recorder output the signal input from the digital input connectors as it is during recording or recording pause.

Use an input monitor function (page 21) when only a built- in sampling rate converter is used.

Recording for long times

In addition to normal stereo recording, this recorder has two long time recording modes: LP2 and LP4. When recording in LP2 stereo mode, you can record 2 times the normal recordable time, and in LP4 Stereo mode, you can record 4 times the normal recordable time. In addition, the recordable time for monaural recording is approximately double the stereo recording time.

Note

MDs recorded in MD LP (LP2 or LP4 Stereo) mode cannot be played back on a recorder that does not support MD LP mode. In addition, you cannot perform S.F Edit for MDs recorded in MD LP mode.

Hidden “LP:” is recorded at the beginning of tracks during MD LP recording.

This is a confirmation stamp indicating no play when play is performed by the non-MD LP component. The stamp is not displayed by playable MD LP components, but is displayed when play is performed by the non-MD LP component.

If the name of the MD LP-recorded track is copied as the name of the MONO or STEREO recorded track, “LP:” is displayed (page 48).
