MD — Recording

Before you start recording

MDs (Mini Disc) let you digitally record and

play music with high quality sound. Another

feature of MDs is track marking. The track

marking feature lets you quickly locate a

specific point or easily edit the recorded tracks.

However, depending on the source you record,

the recording method and the way the track

numbers are recorded differ.

When the source you record from is:

• This system’s CD player

– The MD deck performs digital recording.*

1

– Track numbers are automatically marked as

on the original CD.

• Other digital components

connected to the DIGITAL OPTICAL

IN jack

– The MD deck performs digital recording.*

1

– Track numbers are marked differently

depending on the source you record.

• This system’s tuner and other

components connected to the

ANALOG IN jack (e.g., a VCR)

– The MD deck performs analog recording.*

2

– A track number is marked at the beginning

of a recording, but when you turn on the

Level-Synchro Recording function (see page

21), track numbers are automatically marked

in sync with the level of the input signal.

*

1

For details on the limitations of digital recording,

see page 46.

*

2

Even if a digital component is connected to the

ANALOG IN jack, the MD deck performs analog

recording.

When you use a partially recorded

MD

Starting recording with 6

seconds of prestored

audio data

— Time Machine Recording

When recording from an FM or satellite

broadcast, the first few seconds of material are

often lost due to the time it takes you to

ascertain the contents and press the record

button. To prevent the loss of this material, the

Time Machine Recording feature constantly

stores the most recent audio data in a buffer

memory. This lets you record the sound from 6

seconds before starting recording, as shown in

the illustration below:

Beginning of the source to be recorded

1 Load a recordable MD.

Recording tips

— Recording for long times/Marking

track numbers/Smart space/

Adjusting the recording level

Recording for long times

In addition to normal stereo recording, this

system has two long time modes: LP2 and LP4.

When recording in LP2 mode, you can record 2

times the normal recordable time, and in LP4

mode, you can record 4 times the normal

recordable time. In addition, the recordable

time for monaural recording is approximately

double the stereo recording 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.

1 Before recording (CD-MD Synchro

Recording, etc.), press REC MODE

repeatedly to select the recording mode

you want.

The display changes as follows:

STEREO REC t LP2 REC t LP4 REC

t MONO REC (Monaural) t STEREO

REC t …

2 Start recording.

Changing the recording mode

The selected recording mode is kept even after

recording has finished, so be sure to check the

recording mode before recording. To change

the recording mode, press REC MODE

repeatedly to switch to the recording mode you

want.

Notes

• MDs recorded in MDLP (LP2 or LP4) mode cannot

be played back on a system that does not support

MDLP mode. In addition, you cannot perform S.F

Edit, etc., for MDs recorded in MDLP mode.

• Even if you press REC MODE during recording or

recording pause, you cannot change the recording

mode.

• Even if you press REC MODE repeatedly to select

MONO, the monitor signal during recording does

not become monaural.
