“Memory Stick” (with Memory Select Function)

This is a “Memory Stick” containing more than one memory (128MB). The
memory select switch on the back of the “Memory Stick” enables you to
select the memory most suitable for the intended use. You cannot use
different memories at the same time or in succession.

“MagicGate Memory Stick”

This is a “Memory Stick” featuring built-in copyright protection
technology (“MagicGate”).

What is “MagicGate”?

“MagicGate” is a copyright protection technology that operates when it is
provided in both the “Memory Stick” and the product in which the media
is used. A “Do you comply with “MagicGate”?” authentication takes place
between devices equipped with “MagicGate” (this unit, etc.) and the
“Memory Stick.” Data encryption takes places after the authentication.
Copyright-protected data cannot be played back on devices other than
those certified for this.

Music and other data that require copyright protection can be recorded
and played back by using a combination of a MagicGate compatible
“Memory Stick” and equipment compatible with “MagicGate”, such as
this unit.
Different types of data can be recorded on a single “Memory Stick.”
For example, it is possible to record image data on the remaining empty
section of a MagicGate compatible “Memory Stick” containing music data.

Notes

• Data transferred (checked out) from “SonicStage” to a MagicGate compatible

“Memory Stick” are collected in a folder named “Hifi folder.”
Do not edit the “Hifi folder” using anything but “SonicStage”, such as
Explorer, etc. Data edited by other means cannot be played back or checked in.
Sony can not be held responsible for the data lost in the case of editing.

• Formatting a MagicGate compatible “Memory Stick” containing data will

delete all the data, including music data. Be careful not to delete important
data accidentally. Sony can not be held responsible for the data lost through
formatting.

• What you record are for personal enjoyment only. Copyright laws prohibit

other forms of use without the permission of the copyright holder.

• In no event will Sony be liable for the data contents in case download of

recorded material is impeded or music data is corrupted or deleted due to
malfunctions of this unit or the “Memory Stick”.

• “SonicStage” Ver. 1.5 is not compatible with “Memory Stick PRO”.
