Checking the total track number, total disc playing time, remaining recordable time of the disc and the title of the disc

Each time you press DISPLAY/CHAR (or DISPLAY) while the deck is stopped, you can change the display as follows:

Total track number and total playing time of all recorded tracks

￿￿Press

Remaining recordable time of the disc* (Recorded MDs only)

The remaining recordable time of the disc is not shown for premastered MDs.

Disc name ￿￿Press

If no title is recorded, “No Name” appears, followed by Total number of tracks and total playing time of all tracks.

Press

•With monaural recording, you can record about two times longer than with stereo recording, so the remaining time is also about two times longer.

When you insert an MD, the disc name, total number of tracks, and total disc playing time appear in the display as follows:

Disc name

Music calendar

￿￿

Total number of tracks Total disc playing time

The disc name appears, followed by the total number of tracks (Tr) and total disc playing time.

A music calendar showing all the track numbers appears within a grid if the MD is a premastered disc, or without a grid if the MD is a recordable disc.

If the total track number exceeds 25, zappears to the right of number 25 in the music calendar.

To label a recordable disc and its tracks, see “Labeling Recordings” on page 32.

Note

When you insert a new MD or turn off the deck and turn it on again, the last item displayed will reappear.

If, however, you disconnect the AC power cord, the display will show the total track number and total playing time of all recorded tracks the next time you turn on the deck, no matter what the last display was.
