equipmentsuchas CS/BS tunersorDAT
tape recorders that use a different sam-
pling frequency (32 kHz or 48 kHz), re-
cordings can still be made. (The sam-
pling frequency of this unit is 44.1 kHz.)
●When making a digital recording from a
portable CD player (if the player has a
sound skip prevention function and this
function is turned on) the optical output
willdrop outand digitalrecording will not
be possible. Be sure to turn the sound
skip prevention function off.
There are cases where digital recording
may be impossible.
In the following cases digital recording is
impossible, even if you are using digital
cables.
When you attempt to make a new digital
recording from a track that was digitally re-
corded on a MiniDisc.

may form inside the unit.
●Shortly after turning on a heater.
●Whenthe unit is placed in a room where
there is excessive steam or moisture.
●When the unit is moved from a cool
place to a warm place.
When the unit has condensation inside,
the disc signals cannot be read, and the
unit may not function properly.
●If this happens, remove the disc.
The condensation should evaporate in
approximately 1 hour. The unit will then
function properly.

Whenthenumberoftracksusedreaches
the limit, regardless of the remaining re-
cording time, further recording will be
impossible.
(Maximum number of tracks: 255)
If a MiniDisc has been recorded or ed-
ited repeatedly or if a MiniDisc has
scratches on it, it may not be possible to
recordthemaximumnumberoftrackson
it.
If there are scratches on a disc, the unit
willautomaticallyavoid recording in those
areas.Therecordingtime will bereduced.
When the remaining recording time of a
disc is displayed, short tracks less than
12 seconds long may not be included in
the total.
For MiniDiscs on which repeated record-
ing and editing operations were per-
formed, the COMBINE function may not
work.
A cluster (about 2 seconds) is normally the
minimumunitofrecording.So,evenifatrack
is less than 2 seconds long, it will use about
2 seconds of space on the disc.
Therefore, the time actually available for re-
cordingmaybelessthantheremainingtime
displayed.
If there are scratches on discs, those sec-
tionswillbeautomaticallyavoided(norecord-
ing will be placed in those sections). There-
fore, the recording time will be reduced.
For MiniDiscs on which repeated record-
ing and editing were performed, some
soundsmaybe skipped whilst cueing and
reviewing.
If there are scratches or dust on a
MiniDisc,thetrack numbers following that
track will be increased by one.
MINIDISC SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
MiniDiscs are recorded using a different system than is used for cassette tapes or DAT
recordings. Therefore, the following conditions may be encountered, depending on how
the disc has been recorded or edited. These are due to system limitations, and should be
considered normal.
Even if the maximum recording
time of a MiniDisc has not been
reached, “DISC FULL” or “TOC
FULL” may be displayed.
Even if the number of tracks and
the recording time have not
reached the limit, “DISC FULL”
may be displayed.
Even if several short tracks are
erased, the remaining recording
time may not show an increase.
Two tracks may not be combined
in editing.
The total of the recorded time and
time remaining on a disc may not
add up to the maximum possible
recording time.
When recorded tracks are played
back using the cue and review op-
erations, some sounds may be
skipped.
A track number can be created in
the middle of a track.
