Playback sound skips.

• The recorder is placed where it receives continuous vibration.

, Put the recorder on a stable place.

• A very short track may cause sound to skip.

, Try not to create a short track.

Momentary noise is
heard.

• Due to the special digital audio compression technology used in

LP4 mode, momentary noise may occur on very rare occasions with
certain sound sources.

Sound has a lot of static. • Strong magnetism from a television or such device is interfering

with operation.
, Move the recorder away from the source of strong magnetism.

The volume of the
recorded track is low.

• The track was recorded in analog mode (in digital mode, the

recording level is automatically set to the same level as that of the
sound source). Or you used a connecting cord with an attenuator.
, Use a correct connecting cord without an attenuator.

The edited tracks may
exhibit sound dropout
during search
operations.

• This occurs due to the MiniDisc system limitation. The

fragmentation of data may cause sound dropout while searching
because the tracks are played in higher speed than normal playback.

There is no R-channel
sound output when
playing a track recorded
from a cassette deck or
through an amplifier, or
when listening to sound
from a cassette deck or
amplifier.

• There is no R-channel output if the cassette deck or an amplifier is

connected with a monaural cord.
, Make sure to use a stereo connecting cord. If, however, the

connected equipment is monaural, there will be no R-channel
sound output even with a stereo connecting cord.

The recorder cannot
play MP3 tracks.

• You tried to play an MP3 track with a format not supported by this

recorder.

3/Sampling frequency 44.1 kHz) that have been transferred

display window during
