" In monaural recording, the sound on the right and left
channels is mixed even if the input source is in stereo.
Although you can hear the stereo sound from the ear-
phones, the recorded sound is monaural.
" Tracks recorded in 2 times long recording and 4
times long recording modes cannot be played with
the unit that does not support these modes. On
such a unit, no sound is heard. (The operation may
vary depending on the unit.)
" Tracks recorded in monaural cannot be played if
equipment do not support monaural playback.
" Tracks can be recorded in stereo recording mode, 2
times long recording mode, and 4 times long recording
mode on one MiniDisc.
Caution for 4 times long recording (LP4)
Special compression methods are used to achieve 4
times long recording. This may cause some noise to be
recorded occasionally. When the highest quality is
required, stereo or LP2 recording is recommended.
