While recording

Symptom

Cause/Remedy

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 (“Group REC”) is set to “GroupREC On”.

(You cannot overwrite tracks.)
, Set the group recording setting to “GroupREC Off” (page 40).

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 20 and 36).

• 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.

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.
