E-11  RECORDING Before recording MDs (Mini Disc) let you digitally record and play music with high quality sound. Another feature of MDs is track marking. The track marking feature lets you quickly locate a specific point or easily edit the recorded tracks. However, depending on the source you record from, the recording method and the way the track numbers are recorded differs. Notes on digital recording • When recording from a digital source (such as CD, DAT, etc.), the unit converts the digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD. The unit can record 32, 44.1, and 48 kHz digital signals. • When recording from an analog source (such as cassette tape, tuner, etc.), the unit converts the analog signals to a 44.1 kHz digital signal. Notes about TOC • On an MD, the track number (track sequence), playback times, title data, etc., are recorded in the TOC area independent of the sound information. You can edit recorded tracks quickly by modifying the TOC information. • Recording on an MD is completed when the TOC writing is finished. Normally, the TOC information is written automatically, but you can set it manually by setting REC END WRITING function to OFF (page 16). TOC writing starts when you do any of the following operations. – Eject the MD. – Press STANDBY/ON. – In this case, if you pull out the AC power cord before TOC writing is finished, the recorded contents will not be memorized on the MD. • TOC writing may be impossible (or Auto track number marking may not perform as expected) when recording a damaged CD or a broadcast source under interference. Recording on an MD When the source you record from is: POWER RANDOM REPEAT • CRX-M5’s CD player – You can record from CD to MD with the CD synchronized recording function (see page 14). – The digital signal from the CD is recorded as it is. – Track numbers are automatically marked as on the original CD.

The CRX-M5 starts CD play from the beginning of a disc and the unit starts recording automatically. 6 Both units stop automatically when recording is finished. Auto: Track numbers are written in synchronization with the input level of the signal being recorded. In other words, if the source signal falls below a certain level for more than 2 seconds, a track number is written automatically the next time the source signal rises above that level. You can change the level and time settings (see page 16). Manual: One track number is written automatically when you start recording, but none are written during recording. To write track number manually, press EDIT at the desired point during recording. When recording digital signals Track numbers are written in the same positions as the original source (CD, etc.) with automatic track marking. When you set the unit to manual track marking, press EDIT at the desired point to write track number during recording. To stop CD synchronized recording Note • You can record a CD on an MD with CD synchronized recording by using various way as follows: – recording from the desired track of a CD – recording programmed track • When the MD becomes full in the middle of the recording, both units stop. • Adjusting the VOLUME control of the CRX-M5 has no effect on the recorded sound. Press 7 (CRX-M5) or 7 (MDX-M5). When you press 7 (MDX-M5) and the REC END WRITING function set to ON, the CRX-M5 stops about 10 seconds after you press the button. Notes • When recording is paused, the portion recorded up to the pause is counted as an individual track. When recording is resumed, a new track number is created. On the other hand, if one track is recorded in continuous repetition, that track is recorded as one continuous track with a single track number. E-14  Getting Playing Started CDs RECORDING Recording in monaural allows you to record up to 148 minutes of sound on one 74 minute-MD (when recording in stereo you can record up to 74 minutes of sound).

Note, however, that these limitations are inherent to the MD recording system and are not a result of mechanical trouble. “DISC FULL” appears in the display before the maximum recording time (60 or 74 minutes) has been reached Once 255 tracks have been recorded on one MD, “DISC FULL” appears in the display regardless of the total recorded time. More than 255 tracks cannot be recorded on one MD. To continue recording, erase unnecessary tracks, combine tracks to reduce the total number of tracks, or use another recordable MD. “DISC FULL” appears in the display before the maximum number of tracks (255) have been recorded During Automatic track marking, fluctuations in emphasis within songs may be interpreted as song intervals, increasing the song count and causing “DISC FULL” to be displayed. The remaining recording time does not increase even after erasing numerous short tracks Tracks under 12 seconds in length are not counted, so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording time. “READING” appears in the display continuously “READING” lasts longer than normal when a brand new (blank) disc is inserted. The total recorded time and the remaining time on the MD does not equal the maximum recording time • Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds each, no matter how short the material. The contents recorded may thus be shorter than the maximum recording capacity. Disc space may also be further reduced by scratches. • The unit displays the length of the largest continuous blank area as the remaining time. If there are several separate blank spaces, the remaining time will only display a time equivalent to the largest continuous blank space. For example, if there is a 1 minute blank space and a 2 minute blank space, the remaining time display will be “2” minutes. If you then record 1 minute and 30 seconds of the 2 minutes blank, the remaining time display will become “1” minute. Tracks created by editing may exhibit sound dropout during search operations. Track numbers are not recorded correctly Incorrect assignment or recording of track numbers may result when CD tracks are divided into several smaller tracks during digital recording. Limitations when recording over an existing track • The correct remaining recording time may not be displayed. • You may find it impossible to record over a track if that track has been recorded over several times already. In this case, erase the track using the Erase function. • The remaining recording time may be shortened out of proportion to the total recorded time. • Recording over a track to eliminate noise is not recommended since this may shorten the duration of the track. • You may find it impossible to label a track while recording over it. The correct recorded/playing time may not be displayed during playback of monaural-format MDs. E-26  Getting Playing Started CDs ADDITIONAL INFORMATION As a digital audio component, the unit conforms with the Serial Copy Manager System (SCMS) standards. The Serial Copy Manager System restricts copies made by recording digital signals to first-generation copies only. Therefore, an MD recorded through a digital input cannot be used as a source for making another digital recording. However, subsequent recordings can be made from the first-generation copy by using the analog input/output jacks. There are three general rules that apply to the unit. Notes about handling MDs Protecting a recorded MD • To protect a recorded MD, slide the tab on the side of the MD to open the slot. In this position, the MD cannot be used for recording. To record on the MD, slide the tab to close the slot. Tab Rule 1 You can record from digital program sources (CDs, DATs, or pre-mastered MDs) onto a DAT tape or recordable MD via the digital input jack on a DAT or MD recorder. You cannot, however, record from the recorded DAT tape or MD to another DAT tape or recordable MD via a digital input jack. Rule 2 You can record a digital signal input from a digital satellite broadcast onto a DAT tape or recordable MD via the digital input jack on the DAT or MD recorder. (The unit is equipped with a sampling rate converter that allows you to make digital recordings from 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz digital program sources.) If the broadcast does not contain a copyright protection code, you can then record the contents of this recorded DAT tape or MD (first-generation) onto another DAT tape or recordable MD via a digital input jack on the DAT or MD recorder to create a second generation digital copy (these copies may also be copied digitally). Note, however, that if the broadcast contains a copy protection code, second-generation digital copying will not be possible. Slide open the tab • If the MD is protected against erasure, “PROTECTED” appears in the display and the MD cannot be used for recording. Slide the tab to close the slot. Care of MDs • Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car. • Periodically remove dust and debris from the cartridge surface by wiping it with a dry cloth. • Because the MD itself is housed in a cartridge, you can handle it normally without being concerned about dirt or fingerprints. However, malfunctioning may result if the cartridge itself is dirty or warped. • Do not open the shutter to expose the MD. Close the shutter immediately if the shutter opens. Rule 3 You can record a DAT tape or MD recorded via the DAT or MD recorder’s analog input jack onto another DAT tape or MD via the DAT or MD recorder’s digital output jack. You cannot, however, make a secondgeneration DAT tape or MD copy via the DAT or MD recorder’s digital output jack. E-27 English About copy protection  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Troubleshooting If the unit fails to operate normally, check the following points to determine whether the fault can be corrected by the simple measures suggested. If it cannot be corrected, or if the fault is not listed in the SYMPTOM column, disconnect the power cord and contact your authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center for help.
