Types of recording (continued)
Other types of recording
• Starting recording with 6 seconds of
prestored audio data (
Time Machine
Recording
) — page 50
This feature keeps you from losing the first few
seconds of material when recording an FM or
satellite broadcast on an MD.
• Making the space between tracks 3 seconds
long (
Smart Space/Auto Cut
) — page 54
You can make the blank space between tracks
three seconds long when digitally recording a
satellite broadcast on an MD.
• Marking track numbers automatically
while recording (
Level Synchro
Recording
) — page 52
You can mark track numbers automatically in
sync with the level of the input signal from the
sound source (except when digitally recording a
CD or MD).
• Marking track numbers at a specific point
while recording — page 53
You can mark track numbers at any time during
either analog or digital recording.
• Monaural recording — page 55
You can record FM broadcasts and other stereo
sources in monaural format. This doubles the
recording time (e.g., 120 minutes on a 60-minute
MD).
You can also move tracks, erase tracks and
edit the recorded contents (see pages 56 to
66).
