9 – MD recording from an external source

The MD-CD1 can not only dub from CD to MD, it
also allows MD recording from other sound sources.

Basic recording

Set the recording mode and select the input source.
While monitoring the input signal, adjust the record-
ing level. After all settings are complete, you are
ready to make a recording.

Before following the procedures below, make sure
the MD-CD1 power is on, a recordable MiniDisc is
in the deck, and the deck is in stop mode.

Recording mode setting

1

Use the “REC MODE?” option on the REC
sub-menu of the MD menu to set the record-
ing mode.

For more details, refer to the previous section
“Dubbing from CD to MD” on page 34.

Input source selection

2

Use the INPUT SEL key on the front panel
or the remote control to select the input
source.

Press the key to switch between ANALOG
and OPTICAL.

ANALOG
The analog signal from the ANALOG
INPUT terminals is the recording source.

OPTICAL
The digital signal from the DIGITAL (OPTI-
CAL) INPUT is the recording source.

Even if the power is turned off, the selected
input source is retained.

Input monitoring

3

Press the RECORD key on either the front
panel or the remote control.

The MD deck will enter recording standby
mode, the READY and RECORD indicators
will light up, and “REC” and “||” will light
up on the display.

NOTE

The deck cannot enter recording standby mode in the
following cases.

The tab on the MD cartridge is set to prevent recording,
and “W_Protected” is displayed.

The disc is full, and “Disc Full!” is displayed.

The maximum number of tracks has been recorded, and
“Track Full!” is displayed.

When the digital input (OPTICAL) is selected, if there is
no proper digital signal input, “D-IN UNLOCK!” will be
displayed, and recording cannot be performed.

NOTE

If a partially recorded disc is inserted, the end of the
recorded portion will be detected.

The deck will enter recording standby mode,
and the MD input signal can be monitored
through headphones or a connected audio
system.

NOTE

If monitoring through a connected system, connect the
MD OUTPUTS terminals to the system. Connection
through the COMMON OUTPUTS terminal is also possi-
ble, but in this case, the appropriate setting must be
made using the “COMMON?” option on the SYSTEM
sub-menu of the CD menu. Refer to “Connecting ana-
log audio equipment” on page 10.

For details on headphone monitoring, refer to “Basic
playback operation” on page 24.

Even if no MD is inserted in the deck, it is still possible
to monitor the input signal by pressing the RECORD
key. In this case, “Monitor” will be shown in the display.

To cancel input monitoring, press the STOP key.

Recording level adjustment

Adjust the recording level while monitoring the input
and viewing the meters.

Use the “REC VOLUME?” option on the
VOL FUNC sub-menu of the MD menu to
adjust the level.

If ANALOG is selected as the input source,
you may also use the front panel INPUT con-
trols (L and R) to set the level independently
for each channel.

Recording start

In the recording standby mode, press the
PLAY key, and recording will start.

To stop recording , press the STOP key.

After pressing the STOP key, “UTOC Writ-
ing!” will be shown on the display as the User
Table Of Contents is written on the disc.

To pause recording, press the READY key.
