Auto Marking

When making a recording, you can choose either automatic or manual marking. This feature operates somewhat differently for analog and digital signals. See below for details.

Press M-MARKon the remote repeatedly to select automatic (MANUAL indicator out) or manual (MANUAL indicator lit) marking.

MANUAL

When recording analog signals

Auto : Track numbers are written in synchronization with the input level of the signal being recorded. During recording, if no sound is detected for more than 1.5 seconds, the recorder interprets this to be a gap between two tracks. When the source signal is detected again, a track number is automatically written.

Manual : One track number is written automatically when you start recording, but none are written during recording. To mark a track number, press M-MARKat the desired position while recording.

Note

When using manual marking, the marks must be set at least 4 seconds apart.

When recording digital signals

Track numbers are written in the same positions as the original source (CD, etc.) with either automatic or manual marking.

To add additional track numbers, set M-MARKto MANUAL and press M-MARKat the desired position while recording.

Notes

•When recording is paused, the portion recorded up to the pause is counted as an individual track. When recording is resumed, a new track number is created. On the other hand, if one track is recorded in continuous repetition, that track is recorded as one continuous track with a single track number.

•During synchronized recording, manual track marking is not possible.

TIME RESCUE RECORDING

 

 

 

The Time Rescue (TIME) recording function allows you to

 

start recording six seconds before you press record.

 

During record pause mode, the MD recorder monitors the

 

input signal and continuously maintains a six second

 

memory “cache”. Therefore, you can record a song that

 

just started without cutting off the beginning. You may find

 

this function useful when recording live broadcasts, or

 

when you want to start recording from the beginning of a

 

song without recording lots of commercials (etc.).
