Differences from tape recordings
You cannot record music on the re-
verse side of a MiniDisc.
MiniDiscs are single sided and should
only be inserted with the correct side up.
You don’t need to search for the start-
ing point at which to record.
The unit automatically finds the point at
which recording can start. Recording will
start from that point.
You can check the total or remaining
recordable time (possible recording)
before recording.
This lets you plan a recording session
so that the last song will not come to an
abrupt end before it has finished.
The date and time of a recording are
automatically saved with the record-
ing.
If you have set the date and time, they
will be automatically recorded when a re-
cording is made.
Disc writing (TOC)
The TOC (Table of Contents) is information on track
numbers and recording areas to allow the unit to
recognize musical selections or sounds.
The entire MD is controlled depending on this TOC,
which enables the unit to find the beginning of a
track quickly or to automatically record in a vacant
area.
When you start recording or editing, “TOC” will
appear in the display window.
This indicates that information in the TOC is now
being changed according to recording or editing
being performed. (The changed TOC is not yet
recorded on the MiniDisc at this time.)
The TOC is recorded when
you stop recording.
you switch to another input source.
you eject the MiniDisc.
you enter the stand-by mode.
Do NOT unplug the power lead whilst the TOC is
being recorded (“TOC” is flashing) and do NOT
impart shock to the unit. Otherwise, TOC will not
be correctly recorded, and consequently proper
playback may not be possible.
About track numbers
When recording from a CD
New track numbers will be created automatically
according to the original tracks (Synchro mark func-
tion).
When you record from a CD to a MiniDisc, the
track numbers recorded on the MiniDisc may not
match the track numbers on the CD.
If this happens, correct the track numbers using
the DIVIDE(page 36) and COMBINE (page 36)
functions after recording.
Recordings cannot be made in the follow-
ing situations.
If you try recording on a playback-only MiniDisc
(commercially available music)
If a MiniDisc is protected against accidental
erasure (Page 44)
If there is no more recording time left on the disc
(Page 45)
When the “TOC FULL ” message appears
(Page 47)
If a disc’s TOC has been damaged
If you are trying to copy a digital signal that has
been encoded with the SCMS signal (Serial Copy
Management System)
Notes:
When recording important selections, be sure to
make a pre-liminary test to ensure that the
desired material is being properly recorded.
The VOLUME, X-BASS and SURROUND
controls may be adjusted with no effect to the
recorded signal.(Variable Sound Monitor)
