Notes

You cannot mark track numbers manually during Synchro-Recording.

Track length must be at least 4 seconds to mark track numbers manually.

Marking track numbers automatically (Track Marking Function)

The unit adds track marks differently in the following cases:

When you make a Synchro-Recording (page 22)

The unit marks track numbers automatically under the control of DECK A.

When recording from DECK A, or from a CD or MD connected through the DIGITAL OPTICAL IN jack (with “OPT” selected by the INPUT button)

The unit marks track numbers automatically according to the information contained in the source being recorded. However, the unit may not automatically mark track numbers when recording from some CD players and multi disc players.

In all other cases

When “Track Mark” is set to “LSync” in Setup Menu, the unit marks a new track number whenever the signal drops to the specified level* or below for about 1.5 seconds or longer, then rises to a specified level.

*The initial setting is –50 dB.

To turn off the Track Mark Function

While the unit is stopped, set “Track Mark” in Setup Menu to “Off.” For details, see “Using the Setup Menu” (page 35).

To change the trigger level for Track Marking Function (Level Sync function)

While the unit is stopped, select “LSync Lvl” in the Setup Menu and set the level between

–72 dB and –20 dB. For details, see “Using the Setup Menu” (page 35).
