Precautions: Read this before operating your system

English

■ To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.

■ Choose the installation location of this system carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as transformers and electric motors.

■ Do not operate this system upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage.

■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact your dealer.

■ The openings on the main unit cover assure proper ventilation of the main unit. If these openings are obstructed, the temperature inside the unit will rise rapidly. Therefore, avoid placing objects against these openings, and install the main unit in a well-ventilated area to prevent fire and damage.

■ Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before starting an audio source play: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after play has started.

■ When not planning to use this system for long periods of time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.

■ Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization of this system is not defeated.

■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When moving the main unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wire itself.

■ If an external appliance (TV, radio, etc.) interferes with this system operation, move the main unit away from such an appliance.

■ Do not attempt to clean this system with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

■ Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section regarding common operating errors before concluding that this system is faulty.

■ Although the tape deck’s record/playback heads are high quality heads with outstanding reproduction characteristics, they can become dirty through the use of old tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with cleaning solutions.

■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on this system. Using this system with a higher voltage than specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other types of accidents causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this system with a voltage other than specified.

■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker location and other factors. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which may occur when turning on this system with the volume control setting at high, and to continuous high levels of sound.

■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet. Condensation can cause this system to malfunction.

To eliminate condensation:

CD pickup/MD pickup

•

Leave the power on with no disc loaded until normal play becomes possible (about 1 hour).

Tape head

•

Leave the power on with no tape loaded until normal playback becomes possible (about 1 hour).

Note

If condensation forms on the tape head, dirt or dust may accumulate during use.

Remote control

•

Wipe off condensation on the transmission window with a soft cloth before operating this system.

■ To prevent a malfunction of this system:

Do not use any non standard shaped compact disc

•

(heart etc.) available on the market, because it may damage this system. Do not use a compact disc with tape, seals, or paste on

•

it, because damage to this system may result.

■ To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm.

■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you finish all connections.

■ Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come near the tape deck’s record/playback head assembly. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror-smooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance quality.

This system is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this system itself is turned off. This state is called the standby mode. In this state, this system is designed to consume a certain level of power.

Note

Please check the copyright laws in your country to record from records, compact discs, minidiscs, radio, etc. Recording of copyright material may infringe copyright laws.

Memory back-up

The memory back-up circuit prevents the programmed data from being lost even if the AC supply lead is disconnected from the AC outlet or the power is cut due to temporary power failure. If, however, the power is cut for more than one week, the memory may be erased. If so, it can be re-programmed by simply following the Preset tuning steps.

Notes

● The automatic preset tuning search will be performed

through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the number of received stations is less than 40, the search will stop after searching all frequencies. * Since FM stations are searched for first, there may be a

case that 40 preset stations are occupied by FM stations only.

● With this function, only stations with sufficient signal

strength are stored automatically. If the station you want to program is weak in signal strength, tune in to it with the Manual tuning method (in monaural) and program it by following the procedure of the section “To store stations” on the previous page.

● You can replace a preset station with another FM or AM

station manually by simply following the procedure of the section “To store stations” on the previous page.

Protecting a recorded MD

• To protect a recorded MD, slide the tab on the side of the MD to open the slot. In this position, the MD cannot be used for recording. To record on the MD, slide the tab to close the slot.

• If the MD is protected against erasure, “Protected” appears on the display.

Care of MDs

• Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.

• Periodically remove dust and debris from the cartridge surface by wiping it with a dry cloth.

• Because the MD itself is housed in a cartridge, you can handle it normally without being concerned about dirt or fingerprints. However, a malfunction may result if the cartridge itself is dirty or warped.

• Do not open the shutter to expose the MD.

Recording to MD

The MD recorder allows you to make recordings from a wide variety of program sources (both analog and digital). When recording an analog source (such as an LP or tape), the MD recorder converts the analog signals to 44.1 kHz digital signal before recording them onto the MD. When recording a digital source, the MD recorder converts the digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD. However, If you are recording a 44.1 kHz source signal (such as a CD) there is no conversion. The MD recorder can record 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz digital signals.

Note Adjusting the VOLUME, B ASS and TREBLE controls , YMERSION, B. BOOST and MUSIC buttons have no effect on

the recorded sound. The recording level is automatically adjusted.

Track-marking

The MD recorder provides both automatic and manual methods for the track number-marking.

● Automatic (default setting)

When making a recording, the track-marking is made automatically.

● Manual

To make the track-marking manually, press M-MARK on the remote control repeatedly until “MANUAL” (8) is illuminated.

When recording analog signals (from tapes, radio programs, etc.)

Automatic:

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-MARK at the desired position while recording.

Note

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

When recording digital signals (from CDs, etc.)

Track numbers are written in the same positions as the original source (CDs, etc.) with either automatic or manual track-marking method. To add additional track numbers, select the manual track-marking method and press M-MARK at the desired position while recording.

Notes about TOC

TOC (Table of Contents) is the non-audio data contained on all minidiscs (track numbers, play time, title data, etc.) When you make recording onto an MD, the TOC data is automatically renewed. When the message “TOC Reading” or “TOC Writing”, etc. is shown on the display, it means that the MD recorder is reading the TOC data on an MD, or recording TOC data onto an MD. During this period, do not make an operation on the MD recorder, do not disconnect the power cord of this system, or do not shake this system to prevent a misoperation of the MD recorder.

Editing an MD

Editing and titling MD

One of the main advantages of MD is its editing capabilities, you can remove the commercials from a radio broadcast, arrange songs into the order you want, remove songs, combine songs, even remove part of a song.

The MD recorder offers the following editing functions.

• Erase

Lets you erase a track, the entire disc, or part of a track. You can also erase the title of a disc, or the titles of tracks on a disc.

• Move

Lets you move a track to a different track number.

• Combine

Lets you combine two adjacent tracks.

• Divide

Lets you split a single track into two different tracks.

• TOC Write

Lets you write TOC information to the disc so that changes are saved.

• FRA Check

Lets you recover disc space that may have been lost after repeated editing operations.

• Undo

Lets you undo the previous editing operation if you make a mistake.

Notes on editing

Before editing

Make sure that the MD is not protected against erasure. If the MD is protected, you cannot edit the MD. Slide the tab to close the slot on the side of the MD.

After editing

Use the TOC Write function, or press order to update the TOC information.

Note

After performing an editing operation, “TOC” (9) lights up on the display to show that the TOC information has not yet been written to the disc. Undo is possible only when “TOC” (9) is illuminated.

The illustrations below show the locations of buttons used for editing operations described on pages 35–37.

appears and the MD recorder starts repeating the point where the track will be divided.

m Disc Maintenance

The MD recorder features two disc maintenance functions which optimize performance of MDs. The TOC Write function allows you to write the result of editing to the TOC without having to eject the disc. The FRA Check function recovers recordable space on a disc that may have been lost because of repeated editing operations.

TOC Write

When making a recording, the TOC (Table Of Contents) of the MD is written as soon as recording is finished. When making an editing or titling operation, however, the TOC isn’t automatically written unless the disc is ejected. If the MD recorder is accidentally turned off before writing the result of editing to the TOC, it is possible that these changes will not be saved. By using this function, you can ensure that the result of your edition is saved on the disc.

1 Press

to stop the MD recorder.

2 Press MD EDIT repeatedly to display “TOC Write ?”, then

press ENTER. * “TOC WriteOK?” appears on the display.

4 If necessary, use the jog dial to adjust the position of the

point where the track will be divided. * The dividing position can be adjusted up to 2 second

in either direction.

5 Press ENTER.

* The track is divided and “Complete” appears

momentarily.

* If the divided track originally had a track title, the same

title remains on both of the two divided.

m To undo the editing

The Undo function lets you immediately return to the condition before an editing is made (note; you cannot undo the editing once you press any other button).

1 Press 2 Press MD EDIT repeatedly to display “Undo

3 Press ENTER.

* “TOC Writing” flashes on the display momentarily.

Notes

• You cannot undo the result of editing once it has been written to the TOC.

• The TOC Write function can only be selected when the TOC indicator is lit on the display.

FRA Check

When editing operations such as “Move” and “Divide” are performed, recordable space may be lost and “TOC Full” may appear on the display to indicate that no more recording can be performed. When this occurs, it may be possible to recover the FRA (Freely Recordable Area) on the disc that was lost by repeated editing operations so that more recording is possible.

1 Press to stop the MD recorder. 2 Press MD EDIT repeatedly to display “FRA Check ?”,

then press ENTER. * “FRA CheckOK?” appears on the display.

MD system limitations

The recording system in your MD recorder is radically different from those used in tape and DAT decks and is characterized by the limitations described below. Note, however, that these limitations are inherent to the MD recording system and are not a result of mechanical trouble.

“Can’t REC” is displayed before the maximum recording time (60 or 74 minutes) has been reached

Once 255 tracks have been recorded on one MD, “Can’t REC” is displayed regardless of the total recorded time.

“Disc Full” is displayed before the maximum number of tracks (255) have been recorded

During Automatic track-marking, fluctuations in emphasis within songs may be interpreted as song intervals, increasing the total number of tracks and causing “Disc Full” to be displayed.

The remaining recording time does not increase even after erasing numerous short tracks

Tracks under 12 seconds in length are not counted and so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording time.

“TOC Reading” is displayed continuously

The “TOC Reading” display lasts longer than normal when a brand new (blank) disc is inserted.

The total recorded time and the remaining time on the MD do not total to the maximum recording time

• Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds each, no matter how short the material.

• The MD recorder displays the length of the largest continuous blank area as the remaining time. Therefore, if there are several separate blank spaces, the remaining time will only display a time equivalent to the largest continuous blank space.

Tracks created through editing may exhibit sound dropout during search operations.

Track numbers are not recorded correctly

Incorrect assignment or recording of track numbers may result when CD tracks are divided into several smaller tracks during digital recording.

It is not possible to erase part of a track using the A-B Erase function

The MD recorder organizes the audio data in sound groups and clusters. The minimum size of these units may not consist of less than 10 seconds of stereo sound.

The correct recorded/playing time may not be displayed during playback of MDs recorded in monaural.

Copy protection (SCMS)

As a digital audio component, this MD recorder conforms with the Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) standards. The Serial Copy Management System restricts copies made by recording digital signals to the firstgeneration copies only. Therefore, an MD recorded from a digital input source cannot be used as a source for making another digital recording.
