Long-time recording (MDLP)
See the illustration in Japanese text (page 25).
Select each recording mode according to
the recording time that you want.
Stereo recording is possible at 2 times (LP2)
or 4 times (LP4) the normal recording time
(MDLP mode). MDs recorded in monaural
or MDLP mode can be played back only on
MD components with monaural or MDLP
mode.
1 Press the jog dial.
2 Turn the jog dial until “REC MODE”
flashes in the display, and then press to
enter.
3 Turn the jog dial to select the desired
recording mode.
The recording mode can be selected
from “(none)”(standard stereo mode),
“LP2” (2
×
normal recording mode),
“LP4” (4
×
normal recording mode), and
“MONO” (monaural).
4 Press and slide REC to the right.
Recording starts.
5 Start the sound source.
When you do not want “LP:” added
at the beginning of the track
When recording in MDLP mode, this
recorder adds “LP:” at the front of every
track name automatically. “LP:” appears
when you try to play or edit these tracks on
a recorder or player that does not support
MDLP mode (but not on a recorder or
player that supports MDLP mode).
If you change the recorder setting so that
“LP:” is not added, you’ll be able to enter
longer track names by using the entire text
string.
1 While the recorder is stopped, press the
jog dial.
2 Turn the jog dial until “OPTION”
flashes in the display, and then press to
enter.
3 Turn the jog dial util “LP Stamp” flashes
in the display, and then press to enter.
4 Turn the jog dial until “Stamp OFF”
flashes in the display, and then press to
enter.
If you want “LP:” added, select “Stamp ON”
in this step, and then press the jog dial.
Notes
• It is recommended that you use the AC
power adaptor for MDLP recordings.
• During monaural recording of a stereo
sound source connected through the digital
(optical) input jack, you can still monitor the
recorded sound in stereo by using
headphones/earphones connected the i/
LINE OUT jack.
• When you record in LP4 stereo mode,
momentary noise may be produced on very
rare occasions with certain sound sources.
This is because of the special digital audio
compression technology that enables a
recording time 4 times longer than normal.
If noise is produced, it is recommended that
you record in normal stereo or LP2 stereo
mode to obtain better sound quality.
Recording tracks using the group
function (Group Mode Recording)
See the illustrations in Japanese text (pages 26
and 27).
What is the group function (group
mode)?
It is a function that allows you to separate
tracks on a disc into different groups for
playback, recording and editing.
It is convenient for managing multiple CD
albums recorded in MDLP (LP2 stereo/
LP4 stereo) mode onto a single MD. You
can create a maximum of 99 groups on a
disc.
How is group information recorded?
When recording in group mode, the group
information is written to the disc name
recording area automatically.
Therefore, the character string written in the
disc name recording area is displayed in its
entirety as the disc name if you load an MD
recorded in group mode into a system that
does not support group mode, or if you try to
edit the contents of a disc on this recorder
with the group mode turned off.
You can change the character string by
performing the procedure of “Relabeling
recordings” in “Labeling/relabeling
recordings” (page 105). However, if you
rewrite this character string by mistake,
you may be unable to use the group
function of that MD.
