When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well. For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section.

Recording onto an MD from any of the sound sources is simple. Just insert an MD to the Unit, have the source ready, make one or two settings, and you are ready to record. For each source, the procedure is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But first, here are a few things to make your recordings better.

Things To Know Before You Start

Recording

■ It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record

pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable program and in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic work embodied therein.

■ Carefully read the “Rules of Digital Dubbing” on page

23.

■ The MD Recorder supports the following sampling frequencies

for digital sources. For the OPTICAL DIGITAL IN (AUX2): 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz. For the CD Player of the Unit: 44.1 kHz.

■ The recording level, which is the volume at which the new MD

is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME level of the System. Nor it is affected by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.

■ The accidental erasure prevention knob is provided on the back

of an MD cartridge to prevent accidental erasure or recording. It must be set to the close position beforehand.

■ When you stick an adhesive label onto the MD cartridge, adhere

it securely. If it peels off, ejection trouble, etc. will occur.

■ Be sure that the MD has enough space for recording. If not, car-

ry out ALL ERASE or ERASE function to erase all the tracks or desired tracks in the MD. (See pages 16-17.) You can check the recordable remaining time of the MD in Stop mode or during recording by pressing the DISPLAY/CHARA button. (See "Checking the Remaining Time of the MD" mentioned on page 14.)

This is a new digital audio disc format: it has a diameter of 64 mm and enables up to 74 minutes of playback and recording.

The cartridge

The diameter of the disc itself is 64 mm, smaller than a CD single. The disc sits inside a 68 x 72 mm cartridge, which also being pocket size, makes minidiscs extremely handy for carrying and storage. Since the disc is protected by the cartridge, dust and dirt cannot easily get into it. And thanks to a shutter which is closed at all times except during use, there is no need to worry about scratches or finger marks, making the handling of minidiscs very simple.

Two types of minidisc

There are two types of minidisc, “recordable MDs” and “playbackonly MDs.” The playback method for each is the same: a laser irradiates the disc and the signal is read from the beam which comes back. However, the recording method for each type is different.

Information on MDs (Minidiscs)

Playback-only MD

This is the type used for commercially-available pre-recorded MDs, on which recording cannot be done. Like a CD, data is recorded based on the presence or absence of small indentations called pits. A disc recorded with this format is called an “optical disc.”

SOUND

Cartridge

Disc

Shutterc

Recordable MDs

These are the so-called “blank” MDs you can use to make your own recordings. Data is recorded by magnetism, which is easily processed, so that recording can be done again and again. By using a laser to heat the disc, the magnetism is erased and the magnetic head records the new data. Discs with this type of recording method are called magneto-optical (MO) discs.

tic Coding)

Within recordings, there are sounds which cannot be readily heard.

English

For example, as the volume decreases, high-pitched sounds and low-pitched sounds become difficult to hear. also, if a quiet sound comes at the same time as or just after a loud sound, it will not be heard. With minidiscs, data is compressed using a technology called ATRAC (Adaptive Transform Acoustic Coding) which selectively chooses sounds based on human sense of hearing characteristics. With this technology, the recorded data is about one-fifth the volume of the original data, allowing it to fit on a compact minidisc.

Sound skip guard memory

With the minidisc, the data of the track being played can be temporarily stored up using a function called “sound skip guard memory”. Even when data cannot be collected properly from the disc due to shaking or vibrations, information is stored in the “sound skip guard memory”, so that there is no break in the sound which is actually delivered.

STOP

UTOC (User Table Of Contents)

In a minidisc, apart from the recorded tracks, there is the “UTOC”. In this area, information such as the position where each track is recorded, the track divisions, and track order are listed. When music search is done, the UTOC is consulted, and the tracks are quickly found and played back. When editing is done, only the UTOC is changed, so there is no need to re-record the tracks.

The minidisc records information in an original format that differs from that of conventional cassette tapes or DATs. Since there are some limitations with this recording format, the following types of conditions may arise. These conditions arre not malfunctions.

“DISC FULL” is displayed, even though the possible recording time is not used up.

“DISC FULL” is displayed, even though the number of tracks and recording time are not at the limit.

The JOIN function sometimes does’t work The remaining usable time on the disc

doesn’t increase even when tracks are erased.

■■

The following rules regarding copyright exist for dubbing to MDs from CDs or DATs through digital terminals.

Rules of Digital Dubbing

With the minidisc, there is a maximum number of tracks which can be recorded, re gardless of time. More than 254 tracks cannot be recorded on a disc.

When parts of the disc are erased and re-recorded, blank spots are created on the disc. When recording to such a disc, one track of data is divided and recorded in the blank areas. During recording, when these divided parts become numerous, the “DISC FULL” message may be displayed. When a part of 8 seconds or less is created by division, that track cann ot be joined by the JOIN function, and even if it is erased, the remaining usable time on the disc does not increase. Tracks di vided into small pieces may skip when fast forward or fast rewind is done.

Minidiscs must have at least 2 seconds of continuous space in order to record. For this reason, the actual recording time of discs with a lot of short blank areas becomes shorter.

SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)

Minidiscs can record clear sound with low loss of quality from CDs or DATs through each component’s digital input/output terminal. However, minidiscs are set up so that a disc recorded in this way cannot be recorded onto another minidisc through digital input/output terminals. I n other words, you can not make a copy of a copy. This rule is called SCMS (Serial Copy Management System). The recorder is designed in compliance with this rule. If you try to make a copy of a copy the error message “SCMS CANNOT COPY” is displayed, and dubbing can not be done.

DIGITAL

It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable program and in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic work embodied therein.
