The MD-CD1MKIII makes it easy to dub from CD to MD.
Selected tracks or the entire disc can be dubbed.

Basic dubbing operation

the CD deck, then insert a recordable MiniDisc into the
MD deck.

on either the front panel or the remote control.
To dub a selected track on the CD
During playback of the desired track, or when that track is
cued and the deck is in playback standby mode, press the
DUBBING button on either the front panel or the remote
control.
The track is selected for dubbing.

8 – Dubbing from CD to MD

Recording mode setting

Using the
REC MODE?
of the MD menu, select the recording mode from the
following choices.
ST:
standard stereo
recording mode
MONO
monaural recording
mode
LP2
half-speed stereo
recording mode
LP4
quarter-speed stereo
recording mode
NOTE
In MONO mode, the same signals are output from the
left and right channels of the headphone terminal and
rear panel audio output terminal.
In MONO mode, the recording time is twice that in ST
mode.
The recording time in LP2 mode is twice that in ST
mode.
The recording time in LP4 mode is four times that in ST
mode.
The remaining MD recording time indicated depends
upon the recording mode setting.
Recordings made in different recording modes can be
combined on the same disc.
Since a special data compression technology is used
for LP4 mode (quarter-time recording for four times
the recording time in stereo), there is the very slight
possibility of spikes of noise being generated. If sound
quality is an important consideration, we do not
recommend the use of the LP4 mode.

Dubbing speed setting

Use the
REC SPEED?
the MD menu to select either
