Track numbers may not be recorded correctly

When recording a CD digitally, small extra tracks may be created due to the contents of the CD recording.

In addition, when track marking is performed automatically with “LevelSync ON”, the track numbers may not be recorded correctly, depending on the material being recorded.

“TOC Reading” appears for a long time

If the inserted recordable MD is brand new, “TOC Reading” appears in the display longer than for MDs that have been used.

Tracks edited many times may exhibit sound dropout during playback.

Limitations when recording over an existing track

The correct remaining recording time may not be displayed.

You may find it impossible to record over a track if that track has been recorded over several times already. If this happens, erase the track using the Erase function.

The remaining recording time may be shortened out of proportion to the total recorded time.

Recording over a track to eliminate noise is not recommended since this may shorten the duration of the track.

You may find it impossible to label a track while recording over it.

The correct recorded/playing time may not be displayed during playback of monaural-format MDs.
