An MD recorder is standard equipment ™
An MD recorder with high digital sound quality is standard equipment. Digital copying from a CD is also easy. This recorder has many functions like recording and display of names for discs and titles, changing the sequence of tracks, etc.
Sampling Frequencies ª
This unit has a sampling rate converter corresponding to digital sources (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz).
SRS 3D stereo system Á
This is an epochal system called Sound Retrieval System, which creates a three-dimensional sound space. The feeling of depth, the width of the sound field, the sound image positioning, etc. all are clearly improved, and the listening area also is widened. (Retrieval is used in the meaning of recovery or restoration.)
Convenient recording methods r
Various versatile recording functions are provided according to the use purposes. When the cassette deck X-H9 (sold separately, not sold in some areas or countries) is connected, edit recording to tape is also possible from other sources.
÷ One-touch edit : Recording of one CD or MD or one track by pressing a single key ÷ TWIN RECORDING function : Simultaneous recording of one CD to MD and tape ÷ BEST HITS function : Sequential recording of the first track of each CD onto MD or tape ÷ Program recording : Any desired tracks can be recorded in the desired sequence ÷ Time edit recording : Recording so that no track will be interrupted within the specified time (only
from CD to tape)
÷ Fade edit recording : Sequential recording from the first track (only from CD to tape)
Versatile tone and sound field adjustment ¨
The tone can be selected according to the genre of the music played :
ROCK, POP, DISCO, JAZZ, CLASSIC.
Convenient timer functions a
In addition to the possibility of storing up to 2 timer programs in memory, the following functions are available.
÷ AI timer : When the unit is turned ON by the timer, the sound level increases gradually. ÷ O.T.T. : A timer with easy setting, which operates only once. ÷ Sleep timer : Useful when you want to go asleep while listening to music.
Unpacking
Unpack the unit carefully and make sure that all accessories are put aside so they will not be lost. Examine the unit for any possibility of shipping damage. If your unit is damaged or fails to operate, notify your dealer immediately. If your unit was shipped to you directly, notify the shipping company without delay.

Handling
Hold compact discs so that you do not touch the playing surface.
Label side Playing side
Sticker
Sticky paste
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Discs which can be played with this unit
CD (12 cm, 8 cm), CDV (only the audio part)
÷ With CD-G (CD Graphics) discs, this unit can play only the audio.
...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Do not attach paper or tape to either the playing side or the label side of compact discs. The paste left on the label surface af­ter a sticker has been peeled off is a factor which may cause malfunction. If the surface is sticky due to remain­ing paste, be sure to clean it with al­cohol before use.
CD accessories
The CD 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.
..........................
Cleaning
If fingerprints or foreign matter become at­tached to the disc, lightly wipe the disc with a soft cotton cloth (or similar) from the cen­ter of the disc outwards in a radial manner.
Storage
When a disc is not to be played for a long period of time, remove it from the CD player and store it in its case.
Caution on disc used
Never play cracked or warped disc.
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed in the player. Therefore, to avoid malfunction, never use a cracked or deformed disc or a disc repaired with tape or adhesive agent.
Preparation section Basic section Application section Knowledge sections
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.
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.
Care
Wipe periodically dust and dirt attached on the cartridge with a dry cloth.
Write protect tab
To protect recorded contents against accidental erasure, set the write protect tab of the disc open. Return the tab to the original position when you want to record signals on the disc.
Disc back side
Write protect tab
Slide open. (Recording disabled)

Note
Discs with application of equalizer or SRS 3D ef­fect to the recorded sound (analog input) should be played without sound effect application.
Á¨
This unit is capable of playing a disc recorded in the monaural mode. As the amount of data required to record information in the mon­aural mode is half the amount required in the stereo mode, the play (record) time of a disc recorded in the monaural mode is twice (max. 148 minutes) that of a disc recorded in the stereo mode.

When the playback level of a digitally recorded MD is not suitable (too loud or too low), the recording level can be adjusted by using the REC INPUT key to switch to analog recording, and then recording can be repeated with ad­justment to the most suitable level.

÷In case of analog recording, it may not be possible to record the sound at
the beginning of the title. In such a case, use digital recording.
How to use the AUTO/MANU. Key
This selects whether the track numbers are set automatically during analog recording or manually during or after recording. The track numbers are used at the time of playback to find the start of tracks, for programming, etc.
AUTO
When a part without sound continues for 2 sec. or more during recording, the track number is automatically increased by “1” when the next sound enters. Use this mode for normal recording such as recording of all tracks of a CD. When music, such a classi­cal music, continues with low sound, the track number may be increased by “1”. The erroneously set track number can be erased later. In case of such music, use MANUAL for recording.
Select before the start of recording

Automatic Space Function
This is a convenient function for playback from a cassette deck (option). At the time of CD time edit recording, an unrecorded space of several seconds is produced between titles. With recording to the cassette deck in this condition, the DPSS function (search for unre­corded parts) can be used to find the beginning of a title on the tape.
÷ The “SPACE” indicator is lit during recording. ÷ When play continues from the preceding title to the next title
(classical music, live recordings, etc.), an unrecorded part will be created when different title numbers exist.

Convenient recording methods
Fade-out/Fade-in at the tape reversal (CD =TAPE only)
(Fade edit recording)

Recording preparation is required. y

÷The recording level will be adjusted automatically in approx. 60
seconds (variable depending on CD contents), after which recording starts.
÷The CD tracks are recorded in the order they are recorded on the
CD.
÷Automatic stop is executed when the recording ends.
1. When the CCRS key is pressed during playback of CD, the playback stops and the CCRS setting (preparing edited recording) starts.
2. Edit recording is not possible with CDs containing a track that is longer than one tape side, which may occur with classical music, etc.
3. If the deck is set for one-side recording (“), the processing at the tape end is applied only on side A.
4. When the last tune of tape side B is faded out, the ending part of the last but one tune may sometimes be faded out if the space between it and the last tune is short.

Function Limitations because of the MD Standard
Some of the functions are limited because of the MD standard. Please check this before assuming a malfunction.
Title input is possible simply by selecting one character after an­other from the characters shown on the display. As the entered title is compatible between models, it will be displayed also when the disc is set into a different MD recorder (player). (The title compatibility is limited partly according to the charac­ter types which can be displayed, the number of characters, etc.)

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. Fine adjustment is possible by using the preview function to listen repeatedly to the part to be divided.

Experiencing SRS 3D stereo
(Sound Retrieval System)
The Sound Retrieval System is an epochal system which produces a three-dimensional sound space by applying the most suitable processing to the sound signal on the basis of the human listening mechanism. This permits real depth and sound location, considered as difficult to realize with conventional 2-channel stereo (general stereo). A sufficient effect can be obtained for any source (CD, MD, broadcasts, etc.). Recording with applied SRS 3D stereo also is possible.

MD system
The Mini Disc system has the features as summarized in the following.
1 Like CD (Compact Disc), playback can be started from any position. (Random access) 2 It uses a disc with a diameter of 64 mm that is accommodated in a cartridge. 3 Two types of discs can be used. 4 Up to 74 minutes of recording or playback is possible using high-efficiency coding technology. 5 Countermeasure against vibration is taken using semiconductor memory chip.
Two Mini Disc types
There are two types of Mini Disc, the one designed exclusively for playback and the other which is both recordable and playable.
In case of difficulty
Important Items
XD-9581MD (En)

Playback-only Mini Disc
This type of MD can be used only for playback, and is used by the commercially-available music MD software packages. The playback-only MD is an optical disc like the Compact Disc (CD). The signals are recorded as the presence or absence of small pits and read out by an optical, non­contact pickup.
High-efficiency coding technology “ATRAC”
The Mini Disc has only a half the size of the Compact Disc but provides the same recording time. This is made possible by ATRAC*, a newly developed high-efficiency coding technology.
* ATRAC: Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding
The ATRAC compresses the music data to about 1/5 the amount of data which would be obtained with conventional technology, by cutting off the sound components which do not pose problem in audition even when they are not present. This has made it possible to record or play up to 74 minutes.
Recordable Mini Disc
This MD is a magneto-optical disc which can be recorded by magnetic field modulation. To record signals, laser light is irradiated from the bottom side of the magneto-optical disc and magnetic field is applied from the upper side of it.
Sound-skip prevention memory
During playback, this unit always stores signals in memory temporarily to prevent sound from being skipped in case of vibration. As a result, even when the data from the optical pickup is interrupted due to vibration, etc., the music will not be interrupted because the memory holds the data for several seconds.

Symptoms related to MD standard
Symptom
“DISC FULL” is displayed while the disc still has a remaining re­cordable time.
In case of difficulty
XD-9581MD (En)
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”.
The possible recording time does not increase even when a short track is erased.
Tracks can not be connected.
The time which has been recorded on the MD and the remaining time do not add up to the maximum recording time (60 or 74 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.
Preparation sectionBasic sectionApplication sectionKnowledge sections
“DISC 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.
MD recorder section (other symptoms)
Symptom
Sound is not output even when the play key is pressed.
÷ The cords are connected erroneously. ÷ No disc has been loaded.
÷ A non-recorded disc has been loaded.
÷ 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.
÷ 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.
÷ The track number may be increased in case of dirt or scratches on the CD. ÷ When a new recordable MD (with nothing recorded) is inserted,
“DISC 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.
Cause
÷ Connect the cords in accordance with
“System connections”.
÷ Load a disc. ÷ Load a prerecorded disc or playback-
only disc.
