erasing the whole contents of the MD (see "To erase all tracks of an
MD" on page 21).
5. Start playing the recording source and then press the o o o o o REC
button on the MD-2521.
The MD recorder is now in the recording standby mode.
If you have selected a track over which you start recording, the
"TRACK" indicator and the track numbers of that track and later
track(s) in the track number display will flash.
6. Using the REC LEVEL knob, adjust the recording level.
Adjust the position of the REC LEVEL knob so that the indicator
occasionally enters the -4 to -2 range.
When adjustment of the recording level is complete, stop playing the
source.
