Recording to MD

The MD recorder allows you to make recordings from a wide variety of program sources (both analog and digital).

When recording an analog source (such as an LP or tape), the MD recorder converts the analog signals to 44.1 kHz digital signal before recording them onto the MD.

When recording a digital source, the MD recorder converts the digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD. However, If you are recording a 44.1 kHz source signal (such as a CD) there is no conversion. The MD recorder can record 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz digital signals.

Note

Adjusting the VOLUME, BASS and TREBLE controls, YMERSION, B. BOOST and MUSIC buttons have no effect on the recorded sound. The recording level is automatically adjusted.
