Notes

• Do not use the recorder to charge any other

battery besides the supplied one or the one

designated for it (NC-WMAA).

• Though the battery may become hot during

the charging procedure, this poses no danger.

• Be sure to use the supplied AC power adaptor.

• If you are recharging the battery for the first

time or after a long period of disuse, the

battery may not charge up to its rated capacity.

This is a normal characteristic. After you use

and recharge the battery a few times, it will

return to its normal charge capacity.

• When the battery life of a fully charged

rechargeable battery becomes about half the

normal life, replace it.

• If the recorder will not be used for a long

period of time, disconnect the AC power

adaptor from a wall outlet.

• If during operation the recorder stops with

“LoBATT” in the display, charge the

rechargeable battery. You may be able to

operate the recorder for a while after

“LoBATT” has appeared. However, if you

operate the recorder until the rechargeable

battery is completely discharged, you may not

be able to recharge the rechargeable battery

again. If this happens, remove the

rechargeable battery from the recorder once,

then reinsert it before charging.

• Please note the following points when

charging the battery:

—If you press x/CHARGE immediately after

charging has completed, charging will

begin again. If this happens, press x/

CHARGE again to stop the charging

operation since the battery is already fully

charged.

—Charging stops when you try to operate the

recorder during charging.

Recording an MD right away!

(Synchro-recording)

This section explains the basic procedure for making digital

recordings using an optical cable connected to a CD player, Digital

TV or other digital equipment. (For further information, see “System

limitations” (page 54)) During synchro-recording, the recorder starts

and stops recording in sync with the sound source. Track marks are

added wherever they appear in the sound source. It is recommended to

use the AC power adaptor when recording.

To record from an analog source such as a cassette deck or a radio t “Recording in analog

(Analog Recording)” (page 25).

To record using group mode t “Recording tracks using the group function (Group Mode

Recording)” (page 27).

To cancel synchro-recording

Press . or > repeatedly until “OFF” flashes in the display in step 3, and then press ENTER.

Note

If you record on a previously recorded disc, the recorder is factory set to overwrite the

entire contents of the disc. If you want the recording to start after the existing contents,

do the procedure “Recording without overwriting existing material” (page 29) before

doing step 3, “Record an MD.” (page 17).

If the recording does not start

• Make sure the recorder is not locked (page 14, 49).

• Make sure the MD is not record-protected (page 52).

• Premastered MDs cannot be recorded over.

About the DSP TYPE-R for ATRAC

“TYPE-R” is a high-level Sony specification

used in the Digital Signal Processor (DSP),

which is the heart of the MiniDisc sound. This

technology gives the MiniDisc recorder twice

the signal processing capability as previous

MiniDisc Walkman models, producing a sound

quality close to that of MiniDisc decks. This

unit supports the “TYPE-R” function only

during recording or playback in normal stereo

(or monaural) mode. It does not support this

function in MDLP mode, or during the

checking out of audio data from the computer

in normal stereo (or monaural) mode using

OpenMG Jukebox.

To Press

Record from the end of the

current contents

1)

If “R-Posi” is set to “Fr End”, recording operations will always start from the end of the previously

recorded material without pressing END SEARCH button (page 29).

If “R-Posi” (the record-starting position setting) is set to

“FrHere”, press END SEARCH, and then press N while

pressing REC.

1)

If “R-Posi” is set to “Fr End”, press N while pressing

REC.

2)

.

Press X again to resume recording.

2)

A track mark is added at the point where you press X again to resume recording while pausing; thus

the remainder of the track will be counted as a new track.

Remove the MD x and open the lid.

3)

(The lid does not open while “Edit”

is flashing in the display.)

3)

If you open the lid while “R-Posi” is set to “FrHere”, recording will begin from the top of the disc the

next time you record. Check the point to start recording on the display.

19-GB

Notes

• The pause function cannot be turned on or off

manually during synchro-recording. Press x

to stop recording.

• Do not change SYNC-R setting 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

approximately 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.

• You cannot change the recording mode during

recording.

• “Saving” or “Edit” flashes while data of the

recording (the track’s start and end points,

etc.) is being recorded. Do not move the

recorder or disconnect the power source while

the indication is flashing in the display.

• The lid does not open until “Edit” disappears

in the display.

• If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the

battery is removed or becomes exhausted or

the AC power adaptor is disconnected) during

a recording or editing operation, or while

“Edit” appears in the display, then it will not

be possible to open the lid until power is

restored.

• You can make a digital recording only from an

optical type output.

• When recording from a portable CD player,

set the CD player to pause, and then do the

recording procedure on the recorder.

• Note the following when recording from a

portable CD player:

—Some portable CD players may not be

capable of digital out when the AC power

adaptor is disconnected. If this is the case,

connect the AC power adaptor to the

portable CD player and use it on AC power

as the power source.

—On some portable CD players, optical

output may not be possible when using an

anti-skip function (e.g., ESP* or G-

PROTECTION). If this is the case, turn off

the anti-skip function.

∗ Electronic Shock Protection

z

• When there is no sound from the player for

more than 3 seconds during synchro-

recording, the recorder goes into the standby

mode automatically. When the sound comes

from the player again, the recorder resumes

synchro-recording. If the recorder is kept in

the standby mode for 5 minutes or longer, the

recorder stops automatically.

• For longer recording, follow step 1 of “Long-

time recording (MDLP)” (page 26) to select

the recording mode, and then start the

procedure of synchro-recording.

• LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack is for both digital

and analog input. The recorder automatically

recognizes the type of line cable and switches

to digital or analog input.

• The recording level is adjusted automatically.

To adjust the level manually, see “Adjusting

the recording level manually (Manual

Recording)” (page 31).

• You can monitor the sound during recording.

Connect the headphones/earphones with

remote control to i and adjust the volume by

pressing VOL +/–. This does not affect the

recording level.
