Track number marking in MD recording (REC TNO MARK)

numbers are to be marked automatically during recording (AUTO) or marked manually by yourself during or
after recording (MANUAL). Select either option with the volume/multi-control knob and press the set key.
The initial setting is "AUTO". The track numbers are used when playing back the recording, searching for a

TNO MARK ?", then press the set key.

AUTO
Usually, use this position for recording. When CD playback is recorded, the MD track number increments as the CD track
changes. When an external input is recorded, the MD track also increments by "1" at the moment the input signal which has
been below a certain level for more than 2 seconds increases above the level. (When tuner reception is recorded, the track
number may sometimes fail to increment due to signal noise, etc.). When recording music containing a continuous section with
a very low level, for example when recording classic music, the track number may be incremented by "1" after such a section.
In this case, cancel the track number later. It is recommended to use the MANUAL mode when recording such a kind of music.
During digital recording of CD, the track number is incremented automatically by "1" according to the data contained in the
digital information. The no-sound blank is not detected.
When the CD track number is increased during manual search of a CD, the track number recorded on the MD may sometimes
fail to be incremented.
A no sound track may sometimes created at the moment the played CD stops.
MANUAL
With this setting, the MD track number is not incremented automatically during recording. Track
numbers can be marked either during editing (by pressing the TRACK EDIT key) or after recording
(by executing the DIVIDE operation W).
This setting is convenient when recording a CD which has been recorded in live or which contains
very low-level sound such as a classical music CD.
