While recording

Symptom

Cause/Remedy

“NotENOUGH
POWER TO REC”
appears and recording
cannot be done on a
1GB Hi-MD disc.

• Recording is not possible when using a 1GB Hi-MD disc even when

the battery level indication shows enough power remaining while
the recorder is stopped or playing. This is because of a mechanism
that disables recording when the remaining battery power is
estimated by the recorder to be insufficient due to the high power
consumption required for 1GB Hi-MD disc recording.
, Connect the AC power adaptor to the recorder or insert a fully

charged rechargeable battery or a new alkaline dry battery.

The remaining
recording time appears
as “–0:00:00” and
recording cannot be
done, even though
2.0MB of free space is
displayed.

• This is a system limitation. 2.0MB is the capacity of the reserve

domain.

The recorder always
creates a new group
when recording.

• The group recording (“

:REC”) is set to “

: REC On”. (You

cannot overwrite tracks.)
, Set the group recording setting to “

: REC Off” (page 41).

The first few seconds
of a track cannot be
recorded.

• If you start recording while the disc indication is rotating, data will

not be recorded to the first few seconds of the first track.
, Wait until the disc indication stops rotating before you start

recording.

Recording cannot be
done correctly.

• Audio sources may not be securely connected.

, Disconnect the audio sources once and connect them again

(pages 21 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 24).

• 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.
