Notes
• The MD recording is complete only after all the
recording information is entered to TOC at which
point TOC stops flashing and goes out. Be careful
not to disconnect the power cord or move the
system before this point. Before disconnecting the
power cord, do the following:
– Remove the MD.
– Press
1/u to turn off the system.
• If you pause recording during CD recording, a
track number is recorded at that point. Also, note
that the tracks are recorded as the same single
track with a single track number when a single
track of the same CD is recorded repeatedly.
• Please do not use MDs with labels that are
protruding or labels that have not been positioned
correctly. Use of such MDs may damage this
system.
When recording from an FM or satellite
broadcast, the first few seconds of material
are often lost due to the time it takes you to
ascertain the contents and press the record
button. To prevent the loss of this material,
the Time Machine Recording feature
constantly stores 6 seconds of the most recent
audio data in a buffer memory. When you
start recording the sound source, the
recording actually starts with the 6 seconds of
audio data stored in the buffer memory in
advance, as shown in the illustration below:
