Various ways of recording
Note on digital and analog recording (Digital input
and analog input)
The input jack of this recorder works as both digital and analog input jacks. Connect the
recorder to a CD player or a cassette recorder using either digital (optical) input or analog
(line) input. To record, see “Recording an MD right away! (Synchro-recording)” (page 17)
to record using digital (optical) input, and “Recording in analog (Analog Recording)”
(page 27) to record using analog (line) input.
Difference between digital (optical) and analog (line) inputs
Note
Track marks may be copied incorrectly:
•
when you record from some CD players or multi disc players using digital (optical) input.
•
when the source is in shuffle or program play mode while recording using digital (optical) input. In
this case, play the source in normal play mode.
•
when programs with audio that is digitally broadcast (e.g., digital TV) are recorded through the digital
(optical) input.
