Note

If you temporarily stop a recording operation by pressing X, a new track mark will be added at that point where you pressed X again to resume recording. The recording continues from a new track.

Recording for long timesSee the illustration in Japanese text (page 25).Select each recording mode according to the recording time that you want.

Stereo recording is possible at 2 times (LP2) or 4 times (LP4) the normal recording time.

1Press REC MODE repeatedly to select the desired recording mode.The recording mode can be selected

from “(none)”(standard stereo mode), “LP2” (2 ⋅ normal recording mode), “LP4” (4 ⋅ normal recording mode), and “MONO” (monaural).

2Press and slide REC to the right. Recording starts.3Start the sound source.

Notes

•To obtain better sound quality, select stereo or LP2.

•It is recommended that you use the supplied AC power adaptor for long recordings.

•If you try to play an MD recorded in LP2 or LP4 on MD players or recorders that is not support these modes, playback will not start and “LP:” will appear on the display.

•Sound recorded through digital (optical) input can be monitored in stereo through headphones/earphones, etc.

•When you record in LP4 mode, momentary noise may be produced on very rare occasions with certain sound sources. This is because of the special digital audio compression technology that enables a recording time 4 times longer than normal. If noise is produced, it is recommended that you record in normal stereo or LP2 mode to obtain better sound quality.

Synchro-recording from a digital source

See the illustration in Japanese text (page 25).

You can easily make a digital recording of a digital source on an MD by using the SYNCHRO REC switch.

Before synchro-recording, be sure to make digital connection and insert a recordable MD. Note that track marks are automatically marked at the same positions as the source.

1Slide the SYNCHRO REC switch to ON.“SYNC” lights up in the display.

2Press and slide REC to the right. “REC” lights up in the display. The recorder starts recording when you start playing the source player.

• Even when there is no recorded sound on

 

the sound source, there may be cases when

 

recording does not pause automatically

 

during synchro-recording due to the noise

 

level emitted from the sound source.

 

• If a silent portion is encountered for about 2

 

seconds during synchro-recording from a

 

connecting cord is not an optical cable, or if

Recording without overwriting existing material
