Before Recording to a MiniDisc

Disc writing (TOC)
When you start recording or editing, "TOC" will appear on the display.
This indicates that information in the TOC is now being changed according to the
recording or editing being performed. (The changed TOC is not yet recorded on the
MiniDisc at this time.)
The TOC is recorded when

You stop recording.

You switch to another input source.

You eject the MiniDisc.

You set the unit to the stand-by mode.
Do NOT unplug the power lead whilst the TOC is being recorded ("TOC" is flashing)
and do NOT impart shock to the unit. Otherwise, TOC will not be correctly recorded,
and consequently proper playback may not be possible.
Recordings cannot be made in the following situations.

If you try recording on a playback-only MiniDisc (commercially available music
MiniDisc).

If a MiniDisc is protected against accidental erasure. (See page 56.)

If there is no more recording time left on the disc. (See page 57.)

When the "TOC FULL" message appears. (See page 57.)

If a disc's TOC has been damaged.

Notes for recording

SHARP is not liable for damage or loss of your recording arising from malfunction
of this unit.

When recording important selections, be sure to make a preliminary test to ensure
that the desired material is being properly recorded.

The VOLUME, SURROUND, X-BASS and PASS/EQ controls can be adjusted with
no effect to the recorded signal (Variable Sound Monitor).

About ATRAC
The ATRAC (Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding) system compresses the sound
data into 1/5 by cutting out the inaudible sound. Since the sound is selected based on
psychoacoustics masking, the sound quality is not impaired.
This unit is equipped with the ATRAC3 compressing system that can reduce the
sound data to 1/10 or 1/20 of it's original size.
By employing this system, 2 times and 4 times long recording is enabled in stereo
mode.
The TOC (Table of Contents) is information on
track numbers and recording areas to allow the
unit to recognise musical selections or sounds.
The entire MiniDisc is controlled depending on
this TOC, which enables the unit to find the be-
ginning of a track quickly or to automatically
record in a vacant area.
