Recording on MDs

Synchro-Recording With a Sony CD Player

By connecting your deck to a Sony CD player or Hi-Fi Component System, you can easily dub CDs onto MDs using the CD synchro buttons on the remote. If your deck is connected to a Sony CD player by a digital input cable, track numbers are automatically marked as appear on the original regardless of whether “LevelSync ON” or “LevelSyncOFF” is selected. If your deck is connected to a Sony CD player by audio connecting cords through LINE (ANALOG) IN, track numbers are automatically marked when you select “LevelSync ON” (see “Marking Track Numbers While Recording” on page 12).

As the same remote controls both the CD player and the deck, you may have trouble operating both units if they are far from each other. If you do, place the CD player close to this deck.
