Notes
• You can make a digital recording with an
optical cable only from an optical type output.
• When recording from a portable CD player,
play it on AC power and disable the anti-skip
function (such as ESP*).
• When recording from a portable CD player,
pause the CD player before doing the
recording procedure.
• Digital output may be disabled on some
portable CD players when the AC power
adaptor is not connected to the player.
• A track mark is added at the point where you
press the XPAUSE button again to resume
recording while pausing recording; thus the
remainder of the track will be counted as a
new track.
