Displaying Disc Information
You can have the recorder display various kinds of disc information, like how much material is recorded on a disc, how much
time is left on the disc for you to record on, the elapsed playback time, and so on. When a disc is playing, you have access
to four different display screens; when the disc is stopped you can switch between three. These are shown below.

Reducing Noise during Playback
Minidisc captures very accurately on disc any source that you feed into the inputs, without adding extra noise or hiss.
However, if what you record is noisy (such as an old vinyl record or analog cassette tape), then that noise will end up on the
minidisc too. Using the Digital Noise Reduction ( dnr ) feature can reduce the level of rumble or hiss in such recordings.
Press DIGITAL NR to switch Digital Noise
Reduction on.
The DNR indicator lights in the display to tell you that Digital Noise
Reduction is on (press again to switch it off).
Digital noise reduction may not be effective in the following cases:
❖ If the recording contains transient noises, such as pops and clicks.
❖ If the level of noise is extreme.
❖ If the frequency range is narrow, (an am radio broadcast, for example).
