Operating Instructions
Note
If you temporarily stop a recording operation
by pressing X, a new track mark will be
added at that point where you pressed X
again to resume recording. The recording
continues from a new track.
Recording for long times
See the illustration in Japanese text (page 25).
Select each recording mode according to
the recording time that you want.
Stereo recording is possible at 2 times (LP2)
or 4 times (LP4) the normal recording time.
1 Press REC MODE repeatedly to select
the desired recording mode.
The recording mode can be selected
from “(none)”(standard stereo mode),
“LP2” (2 × normal recording mode),
“LP4” (4 × normal recording mode),
and “MONO” (monaural).
2 Press and slide REC to the right.
Recording starts.
3 Start the sound source.
Notes
•To obtain better sound quality, select stereo
or LP2.
•It is recommended that you use the supplied
AC power adaptor for long recordings.
•If you try to play an MD recorded in LP2 or
LP4 on MD players or recorders that is not
support these modes, playback will not start
and “LP:” will appear on the display.
•Sound recorded through digital (optical)
input can be monitored in stereo through
headphones/earphones, etc.
•When you record in LP4 mode, momentary
noise may be produced on very rare
occasions with certain sound sources. This is
because of the special digital audio
compression technology that enables a
recording time 4 times longer than normal.
If noise is produced, it is recommended that
you record in normal stereo or LP2 mode to
obtain better sound quality.
Synchro-recording from a
digital source
See the illustration in Japanese text (page 25).
You can easily make a digital recording of
a digital source on an MD by using the
SYNCHRO REC switch.
Before synchro-recording, be sure to make
digital connection and insert a recordable
MD. Note that track marks are
automatically marked at the same positions
as the source.
1 Slide the SYNCHRO REC switch to
ON.
“SYNC” lights up in the display.
2 Press and slide REC to the right.
“REC” lights up in the display.
The recorder starts recording when
you start playing the source player.
3 Start the sound source.
Notes
•Do not switch SYNCHRO REC while
recording. Recording may not be done
properly.
•Even when there is no recorded sound on
the sound source, there may be cases when
recording does not pause automatically
during synchro-recording due to the noise
level emitted from the sound source.
•If a silent portion is encountered for about 2
seconds during synchro-recording from a
sound source other than a CD or an MD, a
new track mark is automatically added at
the point where the silent portion ends.
• Synchro-recording cannot be done if the
connecting cord is not an optical cable, or if
the cable is connected to the MIC (PLUG IN
POWER) jack.
•You cannot manually change the recording
mode or the recording level during synchro-
recording.
Recording without
overwriting existing material
See the illustration in the Japanese text (page 26).
If you wish to avoid overwriting the
current contents of an MD, do the
following procedure. All new material will
then be recorded from the end of the
current contents.
1 While the recorder is stopped, press
the jog lever (L), flip the lever
repeatedly until “Rec-Posi” flashes in
the display, and then press the lever
again.
2 Flip the jog lever (L) repeatedly until
“From End” flashes in the display, and
then press the lever.
