Notes

You can make a digital recording with an optical cable only from an optical type output.

When recording from a portable CD player, play it on AC power and disable the anti-skip function (such as ESP*).

When recording from a portable CD player, pause the CD player before doing the recording procedure.

Digital output may be disabled on some portable CD players when the AC power adaptor is not connected to the player.

A track mark is added at the point where you press the XPAUSE button again to resume recording while pausing recording; thus the remainder of the track will be counted as a new track.
