Charging the built-in battery for the clock

When you use the recorder for the first time or after a long period of disuse, charge the

built-in battery for the clock. After setting the clock, leave the dry batteries installed for

about more than two hours so that the built-in battery is automatically charged. You can use

the recorder while charging. When the built-in battery is charged, the settings, such as

clock, will remain for about one month after dry batteries are taken out. For details on

setting a clock, see page 25.

If the recording does not start

• Make sure the recorder is not locked (pages 9

and 41).

• Make sure the MD is not record-protected

(page 54).

• Premastered MDs cannot be recorded over.

Notes

• For long recordings, it is recommended that

you power the recorder from a house current

using an optional AC power adaptor AC-

during a recording operation if you are

operating the recorder on battery power. If you

do, the material recorded up to that point will

not be saved to the disc

• The lid will not open during recording or until

“TOC Edit” disappears from the display after

the recording has completed.

• If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the

batteries are removed or becomes exhausted

or the optional AC power adaptor is

disconnected) during a recording operation, or

while “TOC Edit” appears in the display, then

it will not be possible to open the lid until

power is restored.

• “Data Save” or “TOC Edit” flashes while data

of the recording (the track’s start and end

points, etc.) is being recorded. Do not move or

jog the recorder or disconnect the power

source while the indication is flashing in the

display. If you do, the material recorded up to

that point will not be saved to the disc.

• When you record through the microphones,

the various sounds made by the recorder may

also be recorded.

• The built-in microphones do not operate

whenever an optional microphone is

connected into the MIC (PLUG IN POWER)

(stereo) recording time. Monaural

recording at 2 times normal recording

speed is also possible.

MDs recorded in monaural, LP2

stereo, or LP4 stereo mode can be

played back only on MD players or

recorders with monaural, LP2

stereo, or LP4 stereo playback

mode.

1 Insert a recordable disc.

2 Press REC MODE repeatedly until

Notes

• “LP:” will be added at the beginning of the

track name of a track recorded in MDLP

mode.

• It is recommended that you use the supplied

AC power adaptor for long recordings.

• During monaural recording of a stereo sound

source connected through the digital (optical)

input jack, you can still monitor the recorded

sound in stereo by using headphones or

earphones connected to the i/LINE OUT

jack.

• When you record in LP4 mode, momentary

noise may be produced on very rare occasions

with certain sound sources. This is because of

the special digital audio compression

technology that enables a recording time 4

times longer than normal. If noise is produced,

it is recommended that you record in normal

stereo or LP2 mode to obtain better sound

quality.

VOR (Voice Operated

Recording)

VOR causes the recorder to automatically

record when there is sound, and to pause

when there is no sound. This allows you

to record without troublesome button

operations.

1 Insert a recordable disc and slide MIC

SENS to H (high) or L (low).

2 Press REC MODE repeatedly until

“STEREO”, “LP2”, “LP4”, or

“MONO” lights up in the display.

For details on the recording mode, see

“Recording for long times” (page 16).

3 Press zREC.

4 Press VOR.

VOR turns on.

“VOR” appears in the display and the

VOR indicator lights up when the

recorder is recording. Both “VOR”

and the VOR indicator flash when the

recorder is not recording.

To cancel VOR while recording

Press VOR again.

“VOR” and the VOR indicator goes off

and the recorder changes to normal

recording mode.

z

• VOR automatically turns off when you press

the xSTOP button to stop recording.

• You can change the recording mode when

VOR is on and the recorder is not recording

(while “VOR” and VOR indicator flash). A

track mark is added each time you press the

REC MODE button.

Notes

• You cannot record with the built-in

microphones while an optional microphone is

connected to the MIC (PLUG IN POWER)

jack or an optical cable (not supplied) is

connected to the LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack.

• VOR is sensitive to the surrounding sound

conditions. Set the MIC SENS switch to H or

L to suit the conditions. If you cannot get the

desired recording results, cancel VOR and

record in manual mode.

• Power from the batteries is consumed as long

as VOR is on, even when recording is not

Recording from a

microphone

Connect a stereo microphone (ECM-717,

etc.; not supplied) to the MIC (PLUG IN

POWER) jack. The recorder input

automatically switches to the externally

connected microphone input.

1 Insert a recordable disc and slide MIC

SENS to H (high) or L (low).

2 Press REC MODE repeatedly until

“STEREO”, “LP2”, “LP4”, or

“MONO” lights up in the display.

For details on the recording mode, see

“Recording for long times” (page 16).

3 Press zREC.

For other operations on recording, see

“Recording an MD right away!”

(page 11).

z

When using a plug-in-power microphone, no

battery is needed for the microphone since

power is supplied by the recorder.

If you are using the optional stereo microphone

ECM-717, set the switch on the microphone to

OFF to allow the recorder to provide power to

the microphone. It is recommended that you set

the switch on the microphone to OFF during

use.

Notes

• You cannot record through the externally

connected microphone while an optical cable

is connected to the LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack.

The recorder automatically selects the

recorder input in the following order of

priority; optical input, externally connected

microphone input, analog (line) input, and

built-in microphones input.

• The microphone may pick up the operating

sound of the recorder itself (such as the sound

of the motor). Use the microphone away from

the recorder in such cases. Do not use a

microphone with a short connector, as this

may cause the operating sound of the recorder

to be picked up.

Recording from externally connected equipment

The input jack of this recorder works as both digital and analog input jacks. Connect the

recorder to a CD player or a cassette recorder using either digital (optical) input or analog

(line) input. To record, see “Recording with digital (optical) input (optical cable required)”

(page 20) to record using digital (optical) input and “Recording with analog (line) input

(line cable required)” (page 21) to record using analog (line) input.

LINE IN (OPTICAL) jack is for both digital and analog input.

The recorder automatically recognizes the type of line cable and switches to digital or analog input.

Difference between digital (optical) and analog (line) inputs

Note

Track marks may be copied incorrectly:

• when you record from some CD players or multi disc players using digital (optical) input.

• when the source is in shuffle or program play mode while recording using digital (optical) input. In

this case, play the source in normal play mode.

• when recording BS or CS programs through digital (optical) input.

Recording with digital

(optical) input (optical cable

required)

Connect to a digital source using an

optical cable (not supplied) to make

digital recordings. Digital recording is

possible even from digital equipment with

different sampling rates, such as a DAT

deck or a BS tuner, using the built-in

sampling rate converter.

1 Insert a recordable disc.

2 Press REC MODE repeatedly until

“STEREO”, “LP2”, “LP4”, or

“MONO” lights up in the display.

For details on the recording mode, see

“Recording for long times” (page 16).

3 Press zREC.

“REC” appears in the display, the

REC indicator lights up, and the

recording starts.

4 Play the source sound.

For other operations on recording, see

“Recording an MD right away!”

(page 11).

z

When recording from digital media, track

marks in the original are copied automatically

to the MD.

Notes

• You can make a digital recording with an

optical cable only from an optical type output.

• When recording from a portable CD player,

play it on AC power and disable the anti-skip

function (such as ESP*).

• When recording from a portable CD player,

pause the CD player before doing the

recording procedure.

• Digital output may be disabled on some

portable CD players when the AC power

adaptor is not connected to the player.

• A track mark is added at the point where you

press the XPAUSE button again to resume

recording while pausing recording; thus the

remainder of the track will be counted as a

new track.
