2)A new track mark is added at the point when you press X again to resume recording while pausing; thus the remainder of the track will be counted as a new track.

3)If you open the lid while “REC-Posi” is set to “From End”, recording will begin from the top of the disc the next time you record. Check the point to start recording on the display.

If the recording does not start

•Make sure the recorder is not locked.

•Make sure the MD is not record-protected.

•Premastered MDs cannot be recorded over.

About the DSP TYPE-R for ATRAC

“TYPE-R” is a high-level Sony specification used in the Digital Signal Processor (DSP), which is the heart of the MiniDisc sound. This technology gives the MiniDisc recorder twice the signal processing capability as previous MiniDisc Walkman models. MDs recorded with this specification, “TYPE-R”, produce near-MiniDisc deck-quality sound on MD players that support the specification. Even on MD players that do not support the specification, it produces higher quality sound than MDs recorded on ordinary MD players. This function works only when recording or playing in normal stereo. “TYPE-R” does not work when the recorder is in MDLP mode.

Notes

•The pause function cannot be turned on or off manually during synchro-recording. Press x to stop recording.

•Do not switch the “SYNC REC” setting while recording. Recording may not be done properly.

•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 approximately 2 seconds during synchro- recording from a sound source other than a CD or an MD, a new track mark is automatically added at the point where the silent portion ends.

•Synchro-recording cannot be done if the connecting cord is not an optical cable, or if the cable is connected to the MIC (PLUG IN POWER) jack.

•You cannot change the recording mode during recording.

•“Data Save” or “TOC Edit” flashes while data of the recording (the track’s start and end points, etc.) is being recorded. Do not move or jog the recorder or disconnect the power source while the indication is flashing in the display.

•The lid does not open until “TOC Edit” disappears in the display.

•If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the battery is removed or becomes exhausted or the AC power adaptor is disconnected) during a recording or editing operation, or while “TOC Edit” appears in the display, then it will not be possible to open the lid until power is restored.

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

•When recording from a portable CD player, set the CD player to pause, and then do the recording procedure on the recorder.

•Note the following when recording from a portable CD player:

—Some portable CD players may not be capable of digital out unless powered by the AC power. If this is the case, connect the AC power adaptor to the portable CD player and use it on AC power as the power source.

—On some portable CD players, optical output may not be possible when using an anti-skip function (e.g., ESP* or G- PROTECTION). If this is the case, turn off the anti-skip function.
