MD REC indicator
Recording onto an MD from any of the sound sources is simple. Just
insert an MD to the Unit, have the source ready, make one or two
settings, and you are ready to record. For each source, the procedure
is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But first, here
are a few things to make your recordings better.
Things To Know Before You Start
Recording —————————————
■
It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record
pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the con-
sent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video
recording, broadcast or cable programme and in any
literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic work embodied
therein.
■
Carefully read the “Rules of Digital Dubbing” on page
24.
■
The MD Recorder supports the following sampling frequency
for the CD Player of the Unit as a digital source.
Sampling frequency: 44.1 kHz.
■
The recording level, which is the volume at which the new MD
is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected
by the VOLUME level of the System. Nor it is affected by ad-
justing the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust
the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the re-
cording level.
■
Note that it takes 10 seconds until the MD REC button becomes
effective after the MD has been inserted.
■
The accidental erasure prevention knob is provided on the back
of an MD cartridge to prevent accidental erasure or recording.
It must be set to the close position beforehand.
■
When you stick an adhesive label onto the MD cartridge, adhere
it securely. If it peels off, ejection trouble, etc. will occur.
Preparation Before Recording ———
■
Be sure that the MD is not the Play-only type one.
■
Be sure that the accidental erasure prevention knob of the MD
cartridge is set to the close position. Otherwise, "DISC PRO-
TECTED" will appear when you try to record a signal to the MD.
■
Be sure that the MD has enough space for recording. If not, car-
ry out ALL ERASE or ERASE function to erase all the tracks
or desired tracks in the MD. (See pages 17 and 18.) You can
check the recordable remaining time of the MD in Stop mode or
during recording by pressing the DISPLAY/CHARA. button on
the Unit or the DISPLAY button on the Remote Control.
(See "Checking the Remaining Time of the MD for CD Synchro
Recording" mentioned on page 15.)
You can record from the tuner or an auxiliary equipment to an MD
as follows.
■
1. Insert a MD with its label side up.
■
2. Prepare one of the sources.
Tuner: Tune in to a station.
AUX IN:Press the AUX button and play the auxiliary equip-
ment.
• For recording from the CD, see "CD Synchro Recording"
on page 15.
■
3. Press the MD REC button on the Unit to
start recording.
The “MD REC” indicator lights up on the display and the track
number is increased by 1. When recording starts, the remaining
time (recordable capacity) appears on the display.
■
4. Press the 7 button to stop recording.
The “MD REC” indicator goes out and "UTOCwriting" appears on
the display, indicating that the recording is successfully completed.
Then, the MD stops.
•
If the MD becomes full before pressing the 7 button, the
recording will be terminated after indicating “UTOCwriting”.
To pause the recording, press the MD REC button on the Unit.
The “MD REC” indicator starts blinking on the display and the
track number is increased by 1 for the next recording.
To cancel pause, press the MD REC button on the Unit again.
The “MD REC” indicator lights up on the display and recording
resumes.
Checking the Remaining Time of the
MD for Tuner/AUX Recording ————
You can see the recordable remaining time of the MD in Stop mode.
In Stop mode, press the DISPLAY/CHARA. button on the Unit
or the DISPLAY button on the Remote Control. Each time you
press the button, the display changes as follows.
