Tips
• When you record from CD 1 – 5 to MD 1 – 5, select
a CD and MD with the same numbers in steps 2
and 4 of “Recording your favorite tracks”. (Step 3
is not needed.) If you record on an unrecorded or
completely erased (see page 54) MD, the disc title
assigned to the CD (see page 31) is copied as it is
to the MD (
Disc Memo Copy
). Depending on the
disc, CD text information may also be copied. If
“TEXT” flashes during recording, press NAME
EDIT/CHARACTER, and then ENTER/YES to
record the title of the current track. (If “TEXT” is
lit, it is automatically copied.)
You can also freely select the CD and MD
numbers for recording, for example, from CD 1
and CD 2 to MD 1, and from CD 3 and CD 4 to
MD 2.
• While recording, the light of the CD 1 – 5 buttons
and the MD 1 – 5 buttons indicates the following:
Green:
CD/MD that is currently recording
Orange: CD/MD that is currently standing by for
recording
Off:
Unselected CD/MD
• If the MD is record-protected, “C11” and
“Protected” appear alternately and the MD cannot
be recorded (see page 35).
• If the MD ends during recording, the CD and MD
stop (even if recording was still in progress), and
recording begins on the next MD.
Before pulling out the power cord
MD recording is completed when the MD Table of
Contents (TOC) is updated. The TOC is updated
when you eject the MD or press
1/u
(power) and
turn off the system. Do not pull out the power cord
before updating the TOC (while “TOC” is lit) or
while updating the TOC (while “TOC” is flashing)
to ensure the complete recording.

You can record all of the loaded CDs onto all
