Making a space between tracks 3 seconds long

The Smart Space and Auto Cut functions let you make a blank space between tracks three seconds long automatically while making a digital recording.

Smart Space

There has been an extended silence of 4 to 30 seconds while digital recording.

The MD deck replaces the silence with a blank of about 3 seconds and continues recording.

Note that the tracks before and after this three-second space may be recorded as a single track with a single track number.

Auto Cut

There has been no sound input for 30 seconds while digital recording.

The MD deck replaces the silence of 30 seconds with a blank of about 3 seconds and changes to recording pause.

The Smart Space and Auto Cut functions are both turned on at the same time. You cannot use one of these functions without the other.
