Notes
•
The pause function cannot be turned on or off 
manually during synchro-recording. Press x 
to stop recording.
•
Do not change “SYNC-R” setting while 
recording. Recording may not be done 
properly.
•
Even when there is no recorded sound on the 
sound source, there may be cases when 
recording does not pause automatically during 
synchro-recording due to the noise level 
emitted from the sound source.
•
If a silent portion is encountered for 
approximately 2 seconds during synchro-
recording from a sound source other than a 
CD or an MD, a new track mark is 
automatically added at the point where the 
silent portion ends.
•
Synchro-recording cannot be done if the 
connecting cord is not an optical cable.
•
You cannot change the recording mode during 
recording.
•
“Saving” or “Edit” flashes while data of the 
recording (the track’s start and end points, 
etc.) is being recorded. Do not move the 
recorder or disconnect the power source while 
the indication is flashing in the display.
•
The lid does not open until “Edit” disappears 
in the display.
•
If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the 
battery is removed or becomes exhausted or 
the AC power adaptor is disconnected) during 
a recording or editing operation, or while 
“Edit” appears in the display, then it will not 
be possible to open the lid until power is 
restored.
•
You can make a digital recording only from an 
optical type output.
•
When recording from a portable CD player, 
set the CD player to pause, and then do the 
recording procedure on the recorder.
•
Note the following when recording from a 
portable CD player:
—Some portable CD players may not be 
capable of digital out when the AC power 
adaptor is disconnected. If this is the case, 
connect the AC power adaptor to the 
portable CD player and use it on AC power 
as the power source.
—On some portable CD players, optical
output may not be possible when using an 
anti-skip function (e.g., ESP* or G-
PROTECTION). If this is the case, turn off 
the anti-skip function.

When there is no sound (page 60) from the 
player for more than 3 seconds during 
synchro-recording, the recorder goes into the 
standby mode automatically. When the sound 
comes from the player again, the recorder 
resumes synchro-recording. If the recorder is 
kept in the standby mode for 5 minutes or 
longer, the recorder stops automatically.
•
For MDLP recording, follow steps 1 to 3 of 
“Long-time recording (MDLP)” (page 21) to 
select the recording mode, and then start the 
procedure of synchro-recording.
•
LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack is for both digital 
and analog input. The recorder automatically 
recognizes the type of line cable and switches 
to digital or analog input.
•
The recording level is adjusted automatically. 
To adjust the level manually, see “Adjusting 
the recording level manually (Manual 
Recording)” (page 26).
•
You can monitor the sound during recording. 
Connect the headphones/earphones to i and 
adjust the volume by pressing VOL +, –. This 
does not affect the recording level.
