4 Getting Started
Synchro recording won't work if the source
is already playing!
The recorder goes into all-sync record
pause and the
SYNC
indicator starts to
blink.
SYNC–ALL
SYNC
CD-R
The display shows the all-track sync mode,
with the
SYNC
indicator blinking to show
that recording can start.
4
Play the source.
The recorder starts recording automati-
cally.
5
After recording all tracks from
the source, the recorder goes
into record-pause.
After the recorder encounters about five
seconds of continuous silence, it assumes
the end of the source has been reached and
goes into record-pause and the display
shows the
SYNC
ALL
message again.
Be careful:
If the recorder detects
another signal or start ID (DAT or DCC) it
will start recording again!
• The recorder will enter record-pause if
the digital signal is interrupted for
more than 5 seconds—see
Digital
signal interruptions
on page 18.

Note:
If you find that synchro recording
does not seem to work, see the trouble-
shooting section on pages 40-42 for
possible remedies.

Recording all tracks
from a source
If you want to copy all the tracks from a
source, use this mode. Like the 1-track
synchro recording mode, the recorder
starts and stops automatically. When
recording from MD or CD, you can play the
source in either normal play mode, or
program play if you’d like the recorded
tracks in a different order to the original.
We do not recommend recording from a
DAT in program play mode—use the 1-
track synchro recording mode if you want
to record the tracks in a different order.
If you are recording from a noisy analog
source, such as a vinyl record, or from a
source with long quiet sections, the
recorder may not recognize the end of
tracks. In this case, you can still use this
mode, but it may be better to use manual
track numbering (see page 33).

Load a CD-R or CD-RW disc.
Check the display to make sure that there's
enough space on the disc for what you
want to record.
