Notes on recording
When “Tr” flashes in the display
during
recording
The MD deck is recording over existing track(s) (see
“Recording to an MD” on page 14). The indication stops
flashing when the deck reaches the end of the recorded
portion.
When “TOC” lights up in the display after
recording
Recording has finished but the TOC (Table of Contents)
on the MD has not been updated to reflect the recording
results. The recording will be lost if you disconnect the
AC power cord while the indication is on. The TOC will
be updated only when you eject the MD or turn off the
MD deck.
When “TOC Writing” flashes in the display after
recording
The deck is updating the TOC. Do not disconnect the AC
power cord or move the deck while the indication flashes.
A built-in sampling rate converter automatically 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 sources such as 32- or 48-kHz DAT
tape or satellite broadcasts, as well as the CDs and MDs.
Recording for long times
In addition to normal stereo recording, this deck has two
long time recording modes: LP2 and LP4. When
recording in LP2 Stereo mode, you can record 2 times the
normal recordable time, and in LP4 Stereo 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.
Note
MDs recorded in MD LP (LP2 or LP4 Stereo) mode cannot be
played back on a deck that does not support MD LP mode. In
addition, you cannot perform S.F Edit for MDs recorded in MD
LP mode.
