1 To assure the finest performance, please read this
manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future
reference.
2 Install this unit in a well ventilated, cool, dry, clean
place away from direct sunlight, heat sources, vibration,
dust, moisture or cold. In a cabinet, allow about 2.5 cm
(1 inch) of free space all around this unit for adequate
ventilation.
3 Locate this unit away from other electrical appliances,
motors, or transformers to avoid humming sounds.
4 Do not expose this unit to sudden temperature changes
from cold to hot, nor locate this unit in an environment
with high humidity (i.e., a room with a humidifier) to

markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured BLUE
must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter N or coloured BLACK. The wire which
is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal
which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED.
Making sure that neither core is connected to the earth

NOTES ABOUT MINIDISCS
Care of MDs
Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat sources
such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in
direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in
temperature inside the car.
Periodically remove dust and debris from the cartridge
surface by wiping it with a dry cloth.
Because the MD itself is housed in a cartridge, you can
handle it normally without being concerned about dirt
or fingerprints. However, malfunctioning may result if
the cartridge itself is dirty or warped.
Do not open the shutter on the MD
cartridge
Trying to force the shutter open will damage the shutter.

Remote control
Battery installation
1 Remove the battery compartment cover.
2 Insert batteries into the battery compartment.
3 Replace the battery compartment cover.
Battery replacement
If you find that the remote control must be used closer to
the main unit than usual, the batteries are weak. Replace
batteries with new ones.
Notes
Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement.
Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside
the battery compartment.)
Remove the batteries if the remote control will not be used for
an extended period of time.
If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid touching
the leaked material or letting it come in contact with clothing,
etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before
installing new batteries.
Remote control operation range
Notes
There should be no large obstacles between the remote control
and the main unit.
If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong
lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp, etc.),
it might cause the remote control not to work correctly. In this
case, reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting.
Removing the protection sheet
The remote control is shipped with a protection sheet to
prevent the surface from being scratched during
transportation.
When removing the sheet, first put adhesive tape on an
edge of the remote control so that the tape sticks to the
sheet. Then peel the sheet off with the tape.
Note
Do not scratch the remote control surface when peeling the
sheet off.

Recording of copyright material may infringe
copyright laws.
This unit allows you to make recordings from a wide
variety of program sources (both analog and digital).
When recording an analog source (such as an FM
broadcast or cassette) this unit converts the analog signals
to a 44.1 kHz digital signal before recording them onto
the MD.
When recording a digital source, this unit converts the
digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD.
However, if you are recording a 44.1 kHz source signal
(such as a CD) there is no conversion. This unit can
record 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz digital signals.

TOC writing may be impossible (or track number
marking may not perform as expected) when recording
a damaged CD or a broadcast source with interference.
Adjusting recording levels
Setting the digital recording level
The digital recording level is set by default to 0 dB, the
level of the input source. Normally, it is not necessary to
adjust this level. However, because of the variance in
levels between different digital formats and sources, it is
possible to adjust the recording level of the digital signal.
The digital level can be adjusted up to +12 dB and down
to a minimum (MIN) level. Adjust DIGITAL REC
LEVEL so that the highest peak causes the 0 dB level
indicators to flicker. Do not cause the OVER indicator to
light. Once recording is stopped, the digital recording
level returns to the default level of 0 dB.
Setting the analog recording level
For best results, play the loudest passage of the source to
be recorded and watch the recording level meter in the
display.
Adjust ANALOG REC LEVEL so that the highest peak
causes the 0 dB level indicators to flicker. Do not cause
the OVER indicator to light as it may produce distortion
in the audio signal.
Note
To adjust the recording level of a source connected with the
system control cable, remove the MD before pressing ^ (or
#) on the source component. If you press the button with an
MD in this unit, the recording begins automatically.
Track marking
When making a recording, you can choose either
automatic or manual marking. This feature operates
somewhat differently for analog and digital signals. See
below for details.
Press M-MARK repeatedly to select automatic
(MANUAL indicator is not lit) or manual (MANUAL
indicator lit) marking.
When recording analog signals
Auto : Track numbers are written in synchronization with
the input level of the signal being recorded. During
recording, if no sound is detected for more than 1.5
seconds, the recorder interprets this to be a gap between
two tracks. When the source signal is detected again, a
track number is automatically written.
Manual : One track number is written automatically
when you start recording, but none are written during
recording. To mark a track number, press M-MARK at the
desired position while recording.
Note
When using manual marking, the marks must be set at least 4
seconds apart.
When recording digital signals
Track numbers are written in the same positions as the
original source (CD, etc.) with either automatic or manual
marking.
To add additional track numbers, set M-MARK to
MANUAL and press M-MARK at the desired position
while recording.
Notes
When recording is paused, the portion recorded up to the pause
is counted as an individual track. When recording is resumed,
a new track number is created.
During synchronized recording, manual track marking is not
possible.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
MD recorder system
notes
The recording system in your MD recorder is radically
different from those used in cassette and DAT decks and
is characterized by the limitations described below. Note,
however, that these limitations are inherent to the MD
recording system and are not a result of mechanical
trouble.
“Can’t REC!” is displayed before the
maximum recording time has been reached
Once 255 tracks have been recorded on one MD, Cant
REC is displayed regardless of the total recorded time.
“TOC Full” is displayed before the maximum
number of tracks (255) have been recorded
During automatic track marking, fluctuations in emphasis
within songs may be interpreted as song intervals,
increasing the total number of tracks and causing TOC
Full to be displayed.
The remaining recording time does not
increase even after erasing numerous short
tracks
Tracks under 12 seconds in length are not counted and so
erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording
time.
“TOC Reading” is displayed continuously
The TOC Reading display lasts longer than normal
when a brand new (blank) disc is inserted.
The total recorded time and the remaining
time on the MD do not total to the
maximum recording time
Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds each,
no matter how short the material.
This unit displays the length of the largest continuous
blank area as the remaining time. Therefore, if there are
several separate blank spaces, the remaining time will
only display a time equivalent to the largest continuous
blank space.
Tracks created through editing may exhibit
sound dropout during search operations.
Track numbers are not recorded correctly
Incorrect assignment or recording of track numbers may
result when CD tracks are divided into several smaller
tracks during digital recording.
It is not possible to erase part of a track
using the A-B ERASE function
This unit organizes the audio data in sound groups and
clusters. The minimum size of these units may not consist
of less than 10 seconds of stereo sound.
Limitations when recording over an existing
track
The correct remaining recording time may not be
displayed.
You may find it impossible to record over a track if that
track has been recorded over several times already. If
this happens, erase the track using the ERASE function.
The remaining recording time may be shortened out of
proportion to the total recorded time.
Recording over a track to eliminate noise is not
recommended since this may shorten the duration of the
track.
You may find it impossible to label a track while
recording over another track.
The correct recorded/playing time may not
be displayed during playback of MDs
recorded in monaural.
SCMS - Serial Copy Management
System
As a digital audio component, this MD recorder conforms
with the Serial Copy Management System (SCMS)
standards. The Serial Copy Management System restricts
copies made by recording digital signals to first-
generation copies only. Therefore, an MD recorded
through a digital input cannot be used as a source for
making another digital recording.

Please check the copyright laws in your country to record from records, compact discs, radio, etc. Recording of copyright material may infringe copyright laws. This unit allows you to make recordings from a wide variety of program sources (both analog and digital). When recording an analog source (such as an FM broadcast or cassette) this unit converts the analog signals to a 44.1 kHz digital signal before recording them onto the MD. When recording a digital source, this unit converts the digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD. However, if you are recording a 44.1 kHz source signal (such as a CD) there is no conversion. This unit can record 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz digital signals.

This feature operates somewhat differently for analog and digital signals. See below for details. Press M-MARK repeatedly to select automatic (MANUAL indicator is not lit) or manual (MANUAL indicator lit) marking. Press &. To eject the MD Press Setting the analog recording level When recording analog signals . If the power cord is disconnected while making a recording, the TOC data cannot be correctly written to the disc and the recorded data will be erased. TOC writing may be impossible (or track number marking may not perform as expected) when recording a damaged CD or a broadcast source with interference. Adjusting recording levels Auto : Track numbers are written in synchronization with the input level of the signal being recorded. During recording, if no sound is detected for more than 1.5 seconds, the recorder interprets this to be a gap between two tracks. When the source signal is detected again, a track number is automatically written. Manual : One track number is written automatically when you start recording, but none are written during recording. To mark a track number, press M-MARK at the desired position while recording. Note Setting the digital recording level • When using manual marking, the marks must be set at least 4 seconds apart. The digital recording level is set by default to 0 dB, the level of the input source. Normally, it is not necessary to adjust this level. However, because of the variance in levels between different digital formats and sources, it is possible to adjust the recording level of the digital signal. The digital level can be adjusted up to +12 dB and down to a minimum (MIN) level. Adjust DIGITAL REC LEVEL so that the highest peak causes the 0 dB level indicators to flicker. Do not cause the OVER indicator to light. Once recording is stopped, the digital recording level returns to the default level of 0 dB. When recording digital signals 14 0105MDXE300(M).13-16.E 14 Track numbers are written in the same positions as the original source (CD, etc.) with either automatic or manual marking. To add additional track numbers, set M-MARK to MANUAL and press M-MARK at the desired position while recording. Notes • When recording is paused, the portion recorded up to the pause is counted as an individual track. When recording is resumed, a new track number is created. • During synchronized recording, manual track marking is not possible. 02.5.17, 10:54 AM RECORDING The synchronized recording function lets you set this unit to start recording automatically when a sound signal is input.

The next time a sound signal is detected, recording starts again. In this manner, the presence of a sound signal automatically switches the unit between record and record pause modes. 4 Press REC MODE repeatedly until the indicator for the desired recording mode lights up. This mode provides 160 minutes stereo recording. This mode provides 320 minutes stereo recording. When all of the above indicators are turned off, this unit enters normal stereo recording mode. Notes • MDLPs (= discs recorded in LP mode) cannot be played back nor edited on non MDLP players. If you play MDLPs (=discs recorded in LP mode) on a non-MDLP player, “LP:” will appear at the top of the title and no sound will be reproduced. • Normal stereo recording provides the best sound quality. • The recording mode cannot be changed during recording. Start playing the sound source. To cancel the synchronized recording mode Press &. Note • When the signals at the beginning of a track are lower than the level required to start synchronized recording, they are not recorded. Should this occur, perform manual recording. 15 0105MDXE300(M).13-16.E 15 02.5.17, 10:54 AM RECORDING Monitor out Protecting a recorded MD When a disc is not loaded, you can use the monitor out function to monitor the sound of the input source.

Titles may consist of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols for a maximum of up to 250 characters for each title. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION MD recorder system notes The recording system in your MD recorder is radically different from those used in cassette and DAT decks and is characterized by the limitations described below. Note, however, that these limitations are inherent to the MD recording system and are not a result of mechanical trouble. “Can’t REC!” is displayed before the maximum recording time has been reached Once 255 tracks have been recorded on one MD, “Can’t REC” is displayed regardless of the total recorded time. “TOC Full” is displayed before the maximum number of tracks (255) have been recorded During automatic track marking, fluctuations in emphasis within songs may be interpreted as song intervals, increasing the total number of tracks and causing “TOC Full” to be displayed. The remaining recording time does not increase even after erasing numerous short tracks Tracks under 12 seconds in length are not counted and so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording time. “TOC Reading” is displayed continuously The “TOC Reading” display lasts longer than normal when a brand new (blank) disc is inserted. The total recorded time and the remaining time on the MD do not total to the maximum recording time It is not possible to erase part of a track using the A-B ERASE function This unit organizes the audio data in sound groups and clusters. The minimum size of these units may not consist of less than 10 seconds of stereo sound. Limitations when recording over an existing track • The correct remaining recording time may not be displayed. • You may find it impossible to record over a track if that track has been recorded over several times already. If this happens, erase the track using the ERASE function. • The remaining recording time may be shortened out of proportion to the total recorded time. • Recording over a track to eliminate noise is not recommended since this may shorten the duration of the track. • You may find it impossible to label a track while recording over another track. The correct recorded/playing time may not be displayed during playback of MDs recorded in monaural. SCMS - Serial Copy Management System As a digital audio component, this MD recorder conforms with the Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) standards. The Serial Copy Management System restricts copies made by recording digital signals to firstgeneration copies only. Therefore, an MD recorded through a digital input cannot be used as a source for making another digital recording. • Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds each, no matter how short the material. • This unit displays the length of the largest continuous blank area as the remaining time. Therefore, if there are several separate blank spaces, the remaining time will only display a time equivalent to the largest continuous blank space. Tracks created through editing may exhibit sound dropout during search operations. Track numbers are not recorded correctly Incorrect assignment or recording of track numbers may result when CD tracks are divided into several smaller tracks during digital recording. 22 0107MDXE300(M).21-25.E 22 02.5.17, 10:54 AM ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Can’t copy Digital recording cannot be performed. (See “SCMS Serial Copy Management System” on page 22.) Can’t edit! Edit operations are not possible. Can’t REC! Recording is not possible. The loaded disc may be protected or there may not be enough blank space remaining on the disc. Can’t REC Recording is not possible. The loaded disc may be damaged. DIG in Unlock No digital signal is being input to the selected digital input jack. TOC Writing English English Display messages The TOC data is being written to the disc. Do not move the unit or pull out the mains lead. If you do, recorded material may not be saved normally. TOC Reading The unit is reading the TOC data. Protected The record protection on the inserted MD is set to “protect”. PlayBack MD The inserted MD is a designed for playback only (you cannot record on this disc). Monitor Out The monitor out function is active. The audio signal input to the selected input terminals is output from this unit’s output terminals. No Track Blank disc is played or searched. TMP Over!! The temperature of the unit has exceeded the normal operating temperature. Turn off the unit and let it cool down. If the unit is installed in a place with little ventilation (such as a built in bookcase), move the unit to another location with better ventilation. Disc Full Recording is not possible because there is no blank space remaining on the disc. Title Full! Additional characters cannot be input for the current title because the maximum number of characters for a single title (250) has already been input. UTOC W Error Error occurred when writing to the UTOC. Not Audio The inserted disc is not an audio MD. Tr Protected The selected track cannot be edited because it is protected. TOC Full The disc area allotted for TOC data has become full and further editing is not possible. UTOC Err L0~4 Problem involving UTOC data. 23 0107MDXE300(M).21-25.E 23 02.5.17, 10:54 AM ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Troubleshooting If your MD recorder fails to operate normally, check the following table.
