The MD Deck — Recording
Before you start
recording
MDs (Mini Disc) let you digitally record and play
music with high quality sound. Another feature of
MDs is track marking. The track marking feature
lets you quickly locate a specific point or easily
edit the recorded tracks. However, depending on
the source you record, the recording method and
the way the track numbers are recorded differ.
When the source you record from is:
• This system's CD player
The MD deck performs digital recording.*
• Other digital components
connected to the DIGITAL
OPTICAL IN jack (e.g., CS/BS
tuner)
– The MD deck performs digital recording.*
– Track numbers are marked differently
depending on the source you record.
• This system's tuner and other
components connected to the
TAPE IN jacks or ANALOG IN jack
(e.g., a tape deck)
– The MD deck performs analogue recording.
– A track number is marked at the beginning of a
recording, but when you turn on the Level
Synchro Recording function (see page 35),
track numbers are automatically marked in sync
with the level of the input signal.
