Recording cannot be
done correctly.

• Audio sources may not be securely connected.

, Disconnect the audio sources once and connect them again

(pages 19 and 37).

• There is no digital signal from the portable CD player.

, When recording digitally from a portable CD player, use the

AC power adaptor and disable the anti-skip function (such as
ESP) on the CD player (page 22).

• The analog recording was made using a connecting cord with an

attenuator.
, Use a connecting cord without an attenuator.

• Recording level is too small to record (when adjusting the

recording level manually).
, Pause the recorder and adjust the recording level (page 38).

• The recorder is connected to the computer.

, Disconnect the recorder from the computer when recording.

• The power sources was disconnected or a power outage occurred

during recording.
, The recording result is not recorded on the disc. Make

recording again.

• The premastered disc is inserted.

, Replace to the recordable disc.

• Recording may not be done if the remaining recordable time on the

disc is 48 seconds or less (“DISC FULL” appears).
, Replace the disc.

Stereo sound is heard in
the headphones/
earphones while
recording in monaural.

• This is normal. During digital recording, the sound will be stereo

in the headphones/earphones, even though the recorded sound is
monaural.

Momentary noise is
heard when recording.

• Due to the special digital audio compression technology used in

LP4 stereo mode, momentary noise may occur on very rare
occasions with certain sound sources.
, Record in SP or LP2 mode.

The lid does not open
after recording.

• The lid does not open until “SYSTEM FILE WRITING”

disappears in the display.

“TRACK FULL”
appears even before the
disc has reached the
maximum recording
time and the recording
cannot be done.

• This is due to the MiniDisc system limitation. When 254 tracks (on

a standard disc) or 2,047 tracks (on a disc used in Hi-MD mode)
have been recorded on the disc, “TRACK FULL” appears
regardless of the total recorded time. More than 254 or 2,047 tracks
cannot be recorded on the disc.
, To continue recording, erase unnecessary tracks.

The remaining
recording time does not
increase even after
erasing numerous short
tracks.

• This is due to the MiniDisc system limitation (in MD mode only).

Tracks of under 12 seconds (in SP stereo), 24 seconds (in LP2
stereo mode or monaural), or 48 seconds (in LP4 stereo mode) in
length are not counted and so erasing them may not lead to an
increase in the recording time.
