changes. When an external input is recorded, the MD track also increments by “1” at the moment the input signal which has been below a certain level for more than 2 seconds increases above the level. (When tuner reception is recorded, the track number may sometimes fail to increment due to signal noise, etc.). When recording music containing a continuous section with a very low level, for example when recording classic music, the track number may be incremented by “1” after such a section. In this case, cancel the track number later. It is recommended to use the MANUAL mode when recording such a kind of music. During digital recording of CD, the track number is incremented automatically by “1” according to the data contained in the digital information. The no-sound blank is not detected. When the CD track number is increased during manual search of a CD, the track number recorded on the MD may sometimes fail to be incremented. A no sound track may sometimes created at the moment the played CD stops.

MANUAL

With this setting, the MD track number is not incremented automatically during recording. Track numbers can be marked either during editing (by pressing the TRACK EDIT key) or after recording

(by executing the DIVIDE operation W). This setting is convenient when recording a CD which has been recorded in live or which contains very low-level sound such as a classical music CD.

Recording on MD

Sampling frequency Three types of digital signals are usually used according to the sampling frequencies. The sampling frequencies vary depending on the types of digital equipment as shown below.

32 kHz : Standard and long-hour modes of DAT, etc.

44.1 kHz : Standard mode of DAT, CD, MD, etc. 48 kHz : Standard mode of DAT, etc.

(DAT : Digital Audio Tape deck)

In general, high-quality recording based on digital signal transmission is not possible unless the source and recorder components use the same sampling frequency. As this unit has a built-in sampling rate converter, digital signals with 32 kHz and 48 kHz can be recorded by conversion to the MD sampling frequency (44.1 kHz).

Preparation section

Digital recording and SCMS

Designed for copyright protection, the SCMS is a prescription that copying of digital signals as they are in the digital form between digital audio equipment is allowable only for one generation. Digital recording is not available with commercially marketed music software (CD, MD, etc.) containing the copy prohibit code.

Dividing a track during playback (DIVIDE)

Use the following procedure to divide a track into two by inserting a track number in its middle. For example, by inserting an additional track number before the passage you are specially fond of, it is easy to skip to there when you play the disc later. Note that the track numbers of the tracks located after the divided track are automatically incremented. The preview function can be used for fine adjustment while repeatedly listening to the track division point.

Be sure to put the MD recorder in stop or pause mode.

marking on the label surface.

DIGITAL AUDIO

Never play a cracked or warped disc

During playback, the disc rotates at high speed in the player. Therefore, to avoid danger, never use a cracked or deformed disc or a disc repaired with tape or adhesive agent. Please do not use discs which are not round because they may cause a malfunction.

Disc accessories

The disc accessories (stabilizer, protection sheet, protection ring, etc.) which are marketed for improving the sound quality or protecting discs as well as the disc cleaner should not be used with this system because they may cause malfunction.

Handling of Mini Disc

As the Mini Disc is accommodated inside a cartridge, it can be handled without caring about dust or fingerprint. However, stained or soiled cartridge may cause malfunction. To enjoy beautiful sound for extended period of time, take care on the following points.

Do not touch the disc directly.

Do not touch the disc by opening the shutter with your

hand. The cartridge will be damaged if it is forced open.

Apprication section

Storage position

Do not leave Mini Discs in place where the temperature and/or humidity are extremely high (for example, in a place subject to direct sunlight).

Dust countermeasure

The shutter of the disc cartridge is permanently open while the disc is loaded in the set. Therefore, to prevent dust from penetrating inside the disc, take the disc out of the unit immediately after completion of recording or playback.

In regard to contact cleaner

Knowledge section

Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be specially careful not to use contact cleaners containing oil, for they may deform the plastic component.

Care

Wipe periodically dust and dirt attached on the cartridge with a dry cloth.

Symptoms related to MD standard

Preparation section

“DISC FULL” is displayed while the disc still has a remaining recordable time.

The possible recording time does not increase even when a short track is erased.

Symptom

In case of difficulty

RemedySymptom

÷ Place the disc properly, with the label side facing upward. ÷ Clean the disc referring to “Disc handling precautions”. ÷ Refer to “Caution on condensation” and remove the condensation

by evaporation.

÷ Press the CD 6 key. ÷ Clean the disc referring to “Disc handling precautions”.

÷ Clean the disc referring to “Disc handling precautions”. ÷ Install the unit in a place not subject to vibrations.

Cause

÷ More than 255 tracks (track No. 256 or more) cannot be recorded. (There

may be also cases in which recording is impossible while the track number is less than 256.) In such a case, the REMAIN time display shows “0:00”.

÷ When the remaining time of the entire disc is less than 12 sec, the

remaining time indication on the display becomes “0:00”. When the total time of the deleted tracks exceeds 12 sec, the display changes to the recordable time.

÷ When a short track is deleted on a repeatedly edited disc, the remaining

time may not increase.

Tracks can not be connected.

Basic section

The time which has been recorded on the MD and the remaining time do not add up to the maximum recording time (60, 74 and 80 min.).

When search is performed in a track which has been compiled by editing, the sound is sometimes interrupted.

The track numbers are not assigned correctly.

“READING” is displayed for an abnormally long time.

The time display becomes inaccurate with a monaurally recorded disc.

Input of 1792 title characters is not possible.

Apprication section

MD recorder section (other symptoms)

Symptom

Sound is not output even when the play key is pressed.

÷ Connection of the track resulting from edit processing may not be

possible.

÷ As recording is executed with 2 sec. as the minimum unit, the display time

may not coincide.

÷ This derives from the restriction in the MD system standard and not a

malfunction.

÷ Depending on the contents of the recorded source (CD etc.), the track

numbers may not be assigned correctly.

÷ When a new recordable MD (with nothing recorded) is inserted,

“READING” is displayed longer than usual.

÷ Monaural recording and stereo recording are executed according to

different formats. This is not a malfunction.

÷ The title recording area is used in units of 7 characters, so that input of

1792 characters may not be possible.

Remedy

÷ Load a prerecorded disc or playback-only disc.

Recording is not possible

Sound is distorted.

Noise is noticeable.

Knowledge section

÷ Change the position of the write protect tab to the write position or

use a recordable disc.

÷ Adjust the AUX input level. ÷ Set the input selector to the source to be recorded.

÷ Adjust the AUX input level.

÷ Install the unit at a position apart from an electric appliance or TV
