Even though the
recorder is
recognized by the
computer, it does
not operate
normally. • A USB hub is used.
, Connect the dedicated USB cable directly to the USB port of the
computer.
• You are using the recorder at a place with vibration.
, Use the recorder at a place with no vibration.
The recorder cannot
be used as a storage
device. • The SonicStage or MD Simple Burner software is active.
, Close the SonicStage or MD Simple Burner software.
• A standard disc is inserted.
, Insert a disc used in Hi-MD mode. Only discs used in Hi-MD mode
can be used as a storage media.
The playing time of
a transferred track is
different from the
time that appears on
your computer
monitor. This is due to a calculation discrepancy between the recorder and the
computer.
You cannot transfer
tracks that will fill
up the remaining
recording time on
the disc. • The minimum recordable time on a disc is normally 2 seconds in
stereo, 4 seconds in LP2 stereo mode, and 8 seconds in LP4 stereo
mode. When you transfer a track from your computer, the recorder
needs a 2-second (or 4- or 8-second) space for a track even if the track
is under 2 seconds (or 4 or 8 seconds) in length. Also, the recorder
inserts a 2-second (or 4 -or 8-second) space in between tracks during
transfer operation. For this reason, the recorder needs an additional 6
seconds (or 12 or 24 seconds) for each track. This reduces the
maximum recording time for each track by 6 seconds (or 12 or 24
seconds) during transfer operation (in MD mode only).
The disc size
displayed on the
computer is not the
same as the disc
size printed on the
disc. • The difference is due to the use of the binary system to indicate the disc
size on the computer and the decimal system to express the disc size on
the disc and other recording media. For details on the disc size, see
page 83.
You cannot operate
the recorder (“PC –
–MD” appears). • You cannot operate the recorder while the recorder is connected to the
computer.
