(for the customers who purchased
MDS-MX101 only)
When recording from an FM or satelite
broadcast, the first few seconds of material
are often lost due to the time it takes you to
ascertain the contents and press the record
button. To prevent the loss of this material,
the Time Machine Recording feature
constantly stores 6 seconds of the most recent
audio data in a buffer memory. When you
start recording the sound source, the
recording actually starts with the 6 seconds of
audio data stored in the buffer memory in
advance, as shown in the illustration below.
