Recording tracks in groups (MDS-JE770 only)

— Group Function

What is the Group function?

The Group function allows you to play, record and edit the tracks o n an MD in groups. This is convenient for managing multiple CD albums recorded in MDLP m o de onto a si ngle MD. The Group functi on is turned on and off by pressing GROUP ON/OFF.

Note

MDs recorded using the Group function of this de ck can be used with other system that supports the Group function. However, note that the Group function operations of other system ma y differ from the operations for this deck.

How is group information recorded?

When recording using the Group fu nction, the group management information i s automatically recorded on the MD as the disc nam e. Specifically, a character string such as the following is written in the disc name recording area.

Disc name recording area

0 ; Favorites // 1 – 5 ; Rock // 6 – 9 ; Pops //

231

The disc name is “Favorites”.

Tracks 1 to 5 are registered in the “Rock” group.

Tracks 6 to 9 are registered in the “Pops” group.

Therefore, when an MD recorded using the Group function is loaded on a system that does not support the Group f unction or on this deck with the Group function turned off, the above character string is displayed in its entirety as the disc name.

Note that if you perform the procedure for “Renaming a track or an MD” on page 30 and rewrite this character string by mistake, you may be unable to use the Group function of that MD.

1) The GROUP ON/OFF button flashes. To use the Group function again, first perform the procedure for “Releasing the regis trat ions o f all track s on an MD” on page 3 3 and rele as e th e regist rations of all tracks on the MD.

Notes

•

The Group function setting is stored even if you eject the MD or turn off the deck.

•

When the Group function is activated, tracks which are not registered to a group are not displayed and cannot be played.

“TOC” or “TOC Writing” starts flashing. The TOC is updated and recording is completed.

Before disconnecting the AC power cord

MD recording is completed when the MD Table of Contents (TOC) is updated. The TOC is updated when you ejec t the MD or pres s turn off the deck. Do not disconnect the AC power cord before updating the TOC (while “TOC” is lit) or while updatin g t he TOC (while “TOC Writing” is flashing) to ensure a complete recording.

Automatic conversion of digital sampling rates

A built-in sampling rate co nv erter automatic ally converts the sampling frequency of various digital sources to the 44.1 kHz sampling rate of the MD deck. This allows you to monitor and record source s such as 32- or 48-kH z DAT tape or satellite broadcasts, as well as the CDs and MDs.

All of the functions described here can be used even when the Group function is on (MDSJE770 only). For a de ta iled description o f th e Group function, see page 12.

Recording for long times

This deck has two long time recording modes: LP2 and LP4 (MDL P recording). When recording in LP2 Stereo mode, you can record 2 times the normal recordable time, and in LP4 Stereo mode, yo u can re cord 4 t i mes the no rma l recordable time. In addition, the recordable time for monaural recording is approximately double the stereo re c ording time.

LP4 Stereo mode (4× long time recording mode) achieves a long stereo recording time by use of a special compression system. When placing emphasis on sound quality, Stereo recording or LP2 Stereo recording (2× long time recording mode) is recommended.

Tips

•

The MDLP indicator lights up when you select LP 2 or LP4 in step 2 above.

•

The deck is set at the factory to add “LP:” at the beginning of a track name automatically. This indication is displayed when the track is played on a deck that does not support long-time rec or ding. To turn off this function, do the following procedure.

1 While the deck is stopped, playing, or

paused, press MENU/NO.

2 Turn AMS (or press

until “Setup?” appears, then press AMS or YES.

3 Turn AMS (or press

until “LPstamp On” (factory setting) appears, then press AMS or YES.

4 Turn AMS (or press

to select “LPstamp Off”, and then press AMS or YES.

5 Press MENU/NO.

To ad d “LP:” automatically aga in , select “LPstamp On” in step 4 above.

Notes

•

The recorded “LP:” is a stamp which appears to indicate that the track cannot be played back when you try to play the track on a system that does not support MDLP mode. It does not appear for systems that support MDLP mode.

•

When set to “On”, “LP:” is recorded as the track name, so the number of characters that can be input to an MD is reduced. If you divide an “LP:” track using the Divide function, “LP:” is also added to the latter track.

•

The selected recording mode is kept even after recording has finished, so be sure to check the recording mode before recording.

•

Tracks recorded in MDLP (LP2 or LP4) Stereo mode cannot be played back on a system that does not support MDLP mode.

•

Even if you press REC MODE during recording, you cannot change the recording mode.

•

Even if you press REC MODE repeatedly to selec t MONO, the monitor signal during recording does not become monaural.

•

You cannot use S.F Edit and some other MD edit functions for tracks recorded in MDLP mode.

Marking track numbers while recording

— Manual/Automatic Track Marking

You can mark track numbers either manually or automatically while recording. By marking track numbers at specific points, you can quickly locate the p oints lat er or edit the MD easily.

Marking track numbers manually (Manual Track Marking)

While recording, press RECz at the point where you want to add a track number.

Marking track numbers automatically (Automatic Track Marking)

When recording from a CD player or MD deck connected to a DIGITAL IN connector, the deck marks track numbers in the same sequence as the source. When recording from ot her sources connected to t he DIGITAL IN connector or a source connecte d to the ANALOG IN jacks, do the procedure below to mar k tr ack numbers automatically. However, you cannot mark track numbers automatically if the sound source to be recorded is noisy (e. g. , ta pes or radio programs).

While the deck is stopped, press MENU/

Tips for automatic track marking

•

When recording from a CD player or an MD deck connected to the DIGITAL IN connector, the entire material might be reco r ded as a single track in th e following cases:

— When you consecutively record the same track

two or more times using single-track repeat play.

— When you consecutively record two or more

tracks with the same track number but from different CDs or MDs.

— When you record tracks from certain CD or

multi-disc players.

•

A track number might not be marked for tracks le ss than 4 seconds long (in Stereo mode, Monaural mode, and LP2 Stereo mode) or 8 seconds long (in LP4 Stereo mode) during recording.

•

When recording from a component connected to the ANALOG IN jacks with “T.Mark Off” selected or when recording from a DAT deck or DBS tuner connected to the DIGITAL IN connector, the entire material may be recorded as a single track .
