Remedy
• Make sure the system is connected to an AC power outlet and that the cables are
connected correctly; see Connecting up on pages 15-16.
• Make sure the accidental erase-protect tab is closed (see page 10).
• Check that the disc in the player is not a playback-only MD.
• Even on MDs that have empty space for recording, the TOC may become full after
repeated recording and editing operations. Execute the all-track erase command (page
57) and record the disc from the beginning, or use another disc.
• Make sure the optical cable is connected properly.
• Make sure you are either in stereo, or one of the
• Use another MD. The disc could be damaged.
• There could be condensation inside the recorder. Leave the unit for about an hour
before retrying playback.
• Tracks shorter than 12 seconds are sometimes not counted in the recording time
information. This is not a malfunction.
• All tracks consist of a number of two-second blocks. Often, the end of a track will fall
right at the beginning of one of these blocks. As a result, the actual available recording
time may be slightly shorter than the value calculated based on the displayed time
information. This is not a malfunction.
• The disc contains a damaged section, making that part unusable. This is not a
malfunction.
• It is not possible to combine two tracks where one was recorded using the digital
input, while the other was recorded using the analog input.
• It is not possible to combine two tracks recorded in different modes (for example,
and stereo).
• The groups were created on a different MD recorder and the unit doesn't recognize
them. Delete the disc name and set the groups again to restore use of the group feature.
• The MD has been edited on another MD recorder that is not compatible with this
unit's group feature. Delete the disc name and set the groups again.
• Make sure that group play mode is switched off (page 31).
