recorded material without pressing END SEARCH button (page 31).

A track mark is added at the point where you press X again to resume recording while pausing; thus
the remainder of the track will be counted as a new track.

If you open the lid while "R-Posi" is set to "FrHere", recording will begin from the top of the disc the
next time you record. Check the point to start recording on the display.
If the recording does not start

About the DSP TYPE-R for ATRAC
"TYPE-R" is a high-level Sony specification
used in the Digital Signal Processor (DSP),
which is the heart of the MiniDisc sound. This
technology gives the MiniDisc recorder twice
the signal processing capability as previous
MiniDisc Walkman models, producing a sound
quality close to that of MiniDisc decks. This
unit supports the "TYPE-R" function only
during recording or playback in normal stereo
(or monaural) mode. It does not support this
function in MDLP mode, or during the
checking out of audio data from the computer
in normal stereo (or monaural) mode using
OpenMG Jukebox.
Notes
• The pause function cannot be turned on or off
manually during synchro-recording. Press x
to stop recording.
• Do not change SYNC-R setting while
recording. Recording may not be done
properly.
• Even when there is no recorded sound on the
sound source, there may be cases when
recording does not pause automatically during
synchro-recording due to the noise level
emitted from the sound source.
• If a silent portion is encountered for
approximately 2 seconds during synchro-
recording from a sound source other than a
CD or an MD, a new track mark is
automatically added at the point where the
silent portion ends.
• You cannot change the recording mode during
recording.
• "Saving" or "Edit" flashes while data of the
recording (the track's start and end points,
etc.) is being recorded. Do not move the
recorder or disconnect the power source while
the indication is flashing in the display.

• The lid does not open until "Edit" disappears
in the display.
• If the power supply is disrupted (i.e. the
battery is removed or becomes exhausted or
the AC power adaptor is disconnected) during
a recording or editing operation, or while
"Edit" appears in the display, then it will not
be possible to open the lid until power is
restored.
• You can make a digital recording only from an
optical type output.
• When recording from a portable CD player,
set the CD player to pause, and then do the
recording procedure on the recorder.
• Note the following when recording from a
portable CD player:
—Some portable CD players may not be
capable of digital out when the AC power
adaptor is disconnected. If this is the case,
connect the AC power adaptor to the
portable CD player and use it on AC power
as the power source.
—On some portable CD players, optical
output may not be possible when using an
anti-skip function (e.g., ESP* or G-
PROTECTION). If this is the case, turn off
the anti-skip function.

• When there is no sound from the player for
more than 3 seconds during synchro-
recording, the recorder goes into the standby
mode automatically. When the sound comes
from the player again, the recorder resumes
synchro-recording. If the recorder is kept in
the standby mode for 5 minutes or longer, the
recorder stops automatically.
