The remaining recording time does not increase even after erasing numerous short tracks

Tracks under 12 seconds1) in length are not counted and so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording time.

1)During stereo recording.

In MONO or LP2 mode: about 24 seconds

In LP4 mode: about 48 seconds

Some tracks cannot be combined with others

Tracks may not be combined if they have been edited.

The total recorded time and the remaining recordable time on the MD may not total the maximum recording time

Recording is done in minimum units of

2 seconds1) each, no matter how short the material is. The contents recorded may thus be shorter than the maximum recording capacity. Disc space may also be further reduced by scratches.

1)During stereo recording.

In MONO or LP2 mode: about 4 seconds

In LP4 mode: about 8 seconds

Tracks created through editing may exhibit sound dropout as you are searching for a point while monitoring the sound.

Track numbers are not marked correctly

Incorrect assignment or marking of track numbers may result when CD tracks are divided into several smaller tracks during digital recording. Also, when the Automatic Track Marking is activated during recording, track numbers may not be marked as in the original, depending on the program source.

The correct recorded/playing time may not be displayed during play of MDs recorded in monaural mode.

Guide to the Serial Copy Management System

Digital audio components, such as CDs, MDs, and DATs, make it easy to produce high-quality copies of music by processing music as a digital signal.

To protect copyrighted music sources, this deck uses the Serial Copy Management System, which allows you to make only a single copy of a digitally recorded source through digital-to- digital connections.

You can make only a first-generation copy1) through a digital-to-digital connection.

Examples are as follows:

•You can make a copy of a commercially available digital sound program (for example, a CD or MD), but you cannot make a second copy from the first-generation copy.

•You can make a copy of a digital signal from a digitally recorded analog sound program (for example, an analog record or a music cassette tape) or from a digital satellite broadcast program, but you cannot make a second copy from the first-generation copy.

1)A first-generation copy means the first recording of a digital audio source through the deck’s digital input connector. For example, if you record from a CD player connected to the DIGITAL IN connector, that copy is a first- generation copy.

Note

The restrictions of the Serial Copy Management System do not apply when you make a recording through the analog-to-analog connections.
