Inserting blanks between tracks during

play (Auto Space)

The MD deck can be set to automatically insert a three- second blank between tracks during play. This function is useful when you’re recording from an MD to an analog tape since the three-second blank enables you to use the Multi-AMS function later to locate the beginning of tracks on the tape.

1While the deck is stopped, press MENU/NO twice.

“Setup Menu” appears in the display.

2Turn AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) until “Auto” appears, then press AMS or YES.

3Turn AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) to select the setting, then press AMS or YES.

Notes

If you select “Auto Space” and record a selection containing multiple track numbers (for example, a medley or symphony), blank spaces will be created on the tape in between the various sections.

If you turn off the deck or disconnect the AC power cord, the deck will store the last setting (“Auto Space” or “Auto Off”) and recall it the next time you turn on the deck.
