RECORDING
This unit allows you to make recordings from a wide
variety of program sources (both analog and digital).
When recording an analog source (such as an FM
broadcast or cassette) this unit converts the analog
signals to a 44.1 kHz digital signal before recording
them onto the MD.
When recording a digital source, this unit converts the
digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD.
However, if you are recording a 44.1 kHz source signal
(such as a CD) there is no conversion. This unit can
record 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz digital signals.

TOC writing may be impossible (or track number
marking may not perform as expected) when
recording a damaged CD or a broadcast source with
interference.
Adjusting Recording Levels
Setting the digital recording level
The digital recording level is set by default to 0 dB, the
level of the input source. Normally, it is not necessary to
adjust this level. However, because of the variance in
levels between different digital formats and sources, it is
possible to adjust the recording level of the digital
signal. The digital level can be adjusted up to +12 dB
and down to a minimum (MIN) level. Adjust DIGITAL
REC LEVEL so that the highest peak causes the 0 dB
level indicators to flicker. Do not cause the OVER
indicator to light. Once recording is stopped, the digital
recording level returns to the default level of 0 dB.
Track Marking
When making a recording, you can choose either
automatic or manual marking. This feature operates
somewhat differently for analog and digital signals. See
below for details.
Press M-MARK repeatedly to select automatic
(MANUAL indicator is not lit) or manual
(MANUAL indicator lit) marking.
When recording analog signals
Auto : Track numbers are written in synchronization
with the input level of the signal being recorded. During
recording, if no sound is detected for more than 1.5
seconds, the recorder interprets this to be a gap between
two tracks. When the source signal is detected again, a
track number is automatically written.
Manual : One track number is written automatically
when you start recording, but none are written during
recording. To mark a track number, press M-MARK at
the desired position while recording.
Note
When using manual marking, the marks must be set at least 4
seconds apart.
When recording digital signals
Track numbers are written in the same positions as the
original source (CD, etc.) with either automatic or manual
marking.
To add additional track numbers, set M-MARK to
MANUAL and press M-MARK at the desired position
while recording.
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.
During synchronized recording, manual track marking is
not possible.

SYNCHRO RECORDING
The synchronized recording function lets you set this
unit to start recording automatically when a sound signal
is input.
1 Load the sound source into the source
component.
If necessary, program, or select the track you want
to start recording from before proceeding to the
next step. (Refer to the operation manual supplied
with the source component for instructions
regarding its use.)

recording flash alternately in the display.
During synchronized recording, analog input sources are
recorded at the current ANALOG REC LEVEL setting,
digital sources are recorded at the 0 dB level.
The MD starts recording automatically when a sound
signal is input. When the sound signal stops, the unit
switches back to record pause mode and “Synchro REC”
blinks in the display. The next time a sound signal is
detected, recording starts again. In this manner, the
presence of a sound signal automatically switches the unit
between record and record pause modes.
4 Start playing the sound source.
To cancel the synchronized recording mode
Press &.
Note
When the signals at the beginning of a track are lower than the
level required to start synchronized recording, they are not
recorded. Should this occur, perform manual recording.

MD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
The recording system in your MD recorder is radically
different from those used in cassette and DAT decks and
is characterized by the limitations described below.
Note, however, that these limitations are inherent to the
MD recording system and are not a result of mechanical
trouble.
“Can’t REC!” is displayed before the maximum
recording time (60 or 74 minutes) has been
reached
Once 255 tracks have been recorded on one MD, “Can’t
REC” is displayed regardless of the total recorded time.
“TOC Full” is displayed 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 total number of tracks and
causing “TOC 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 and
so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the
recording time.
“TOC Reading” is displayed continuously
The “TOC Reading” display lasts longer than normal
when a brand new (blank) disc is inserted.
The total recorded time and the remaining time
on the MD do not total to the maximum
recording time
Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds
each, no matter how short the material.
This unit displays the length of the largest continuous
blank area as the remaining time. Therefore, if there
are several separate blank spaces, the remaining time
will only display a time equivalent to the largest
continuous blank space.
Tracks created through 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.
It is not possible to erase part of a track using
the A-B ERASE function
This unit organizes the audio data in sound groups and
clusters. The minimum size of these units may not
consist of less than 10 seconds of stereo sound.
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. If this happens, 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 another track.
The correct recorded/playing time may not be
displayed during playback of MDs recorded in
monaural.

English
COPY PROTECTION (SCMS)
As a digital audio component, this MD recorder
conforms with the Serial Copy Management System
(SCMS) standards. The Serial Copy Management
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.
Can’t copy
Digital recording cannot be performed. (See “COPY
PROTECTION (SCMS)” on this page.)
Can’t edit!
Edit operations are not possible.
Can’t REC!
Recording is not possible. The loaded disc may be
protected or there may not be enough blank space
remaining on the disc.
Can’t REC
Recording is not possible. The loaded disc may be
damaged.
DIG in Unlock
No digital signal is being input to the selected digital
input jack.
TMP Over!!
The temperature of the unit has exceeded the normal
operating temperature. Turn off the unit and let it cool
down. If the unit is installed in a place with little
ventilation (such as a built in bookcase), move the unit
to another location with better ventilation.
Disc Full
Recording is not possible because there is no blank
space remaining on the disc.
Title Full!
Additional characters cannot be input for the current
title because the maximum number of characters for a
single title (250) has already been input.
UTOC W Error
Error occurred when writing to the UTOC.
Not Audio
The inserted disc is not an audio MD.

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 on the MD cartridge
Trying to force the shutter open will damage the shutter.

English This unit allows you to make recordings from a wide variety of program sources (both analog and digital). When recording an analog source (such as an FM broadcast or cassette) this unit converts the analog signals to a 44.1 kHz digital signal before recording them onto the MD. When recording a digital source, this unit converts the digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD. However, if you are recording a 44.1 kHz source signal (such as a CD) there is no conversion. This unit can record 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz digital signals.

(See “Adjusting Recording Levels” on this page.) Before proceeding to the next step, be sure to reset the source to be recorded to the beginning. 7 Press #/* (# on the remote) to start recording. The TOC indicator lights up. When the TOC indicator is lit, this means that the TOC information has not yet been written to the disc. After recording is complete, the TOC data is automatically written to the disc. 8 Start playing the source to be recorded. • Synchronized start is possible if you have connected the CDX-E100 or the KX-E100 to this unit. Press ^ on the CDX-E100 or # on the KX-E100 to start playing the source after step 6. The recording automatically begins. To pause Press REC/PAUSE. Press #/* (# on the remote) to resume recording. To stop Press &. To eject the MD Press . If the power cord is disconnected while making a recording, the TOC data cannot be correctly written to the disc and the recorded data will be erased. TOC writing may be impossible (or track number marking may not perform as expected) when recording a damaged CD or a broadcast source with interference. Adjusting Recording Levels Setting the digital recording level The digital recording level is set by default to 0 dB, the level of the input source. Normally, it is not necessary to adjust this level. However, because of the variance in levels between different digital formats and sources, it is possible to adjust the recording level of the digital signal. The digital level can be adjusted up to +12 dB and down to a minimum (MIN) level. Adjust DIGITAL REC LEVEL so that the highest peak causes the 0 dB level indicators to flicker. Do not cause the OVER indicator to light. Once recording is stopped, the digital recording level returns to the default level of 0 dB. E-12 Setting the analog recording level For best results, play the loudest passage of the source to be recorded and watch the recording level meter in the display. Adjust ANALOG REC LEVEL so that the highest peak causes the 0 dB level indicators to flicker. Do not cause the OVER indicator to light as it may produce distortion in the audio signal. L dB – 00 – 60 R –30 –10 –6 4 – 2 –1 0 OVER Should not light Track Marking When making a recording, you can choose either automatic or manual marking. This feature operates somewhat differently for analog and digital signals. See below for details. Press M-MARK repeatedly to select automatic (MANUAL indicator is not lit) or manual (MANUAL indicator lit) marking. COAX. 32 44.1 48 RANDOM REC PROGRAM MONO kHz MANUAL REPEAT A-B S F TOC L dB – 00 –60 R –30 –10 –6 4 – 2 –1 0 OVER When recording analog signals Auto : Track numbers are written in synchronization with the input level of the signal being recorded. During recording, if no sound is detected for more than 1.5 seconds, the recorder interprets this to be a gap between two tracks. When the source signal is detected again, a track number is automatically written. Manual : One track number is written automatically when you start recording, but none are written during recording. To mark a track number, press M-MARK at the desired position while recording. Note When using manual marking, the marks must be set at least 4 seconds apart. When recording digital signals Track numbers are written in the same positions as the original source (CD, etc.) with either automatic or manual marking. To add additional track numbers, set M-MARK to MANUAL and press M-MARK at the desired position while recording. 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. • During synchronized recording, manual track marking is not possible.

To record, edit, or title the MD, slide the tab to close the slot. • If the MD is protected against erasure, “Protected” appears in the display. EDITING English One of the main advantages of MD is its editing capabilities. You can remove the commercials from a radio broadcast, reorder songs into the order you want, remove songs, combine songs, and even remove part of a song. This unit offers the following editing operations. ¶ ERASE Lets you erase a track, the entire disc, or part of a track. You can also erase the title of a disc, or the titles of tracks on a disc. TITLE ¶ MOVE Lets you move a track to a different track number. ¶ ABC COMBINE Lets you combine two adjacent tracks. ¶ DIVIDE Lets you split a single track into two different tracks. ¶ SET CANCEL ENTER EDIT EDIT SET/ENTER ! $ DEF GHI JKL 1 2 3 4 MNO PQR STU VWX 5 6 7 8 YZ / SPACE 9 0 +10 +100 ⁄ › REC/ PAUSE SYNC & M-MARK MONO/ST INPUT RANDOM PROGRAM FRA CHECK Lets you recover disc space that may have been lost after multiple edit operations. ¶ DELETE CHAR NUMBER REPEAT A-B S/F DISPLAY SCROLL POWER TOC WRITE Lets you write TOC information to the disc so that changes are saved. ¶ UNDO Lets you undo the previous edit operation if you make a mistake. Notes on editing • To cancel an edit Press &. • Before editing Make sure that the MD is not protected against erasure. If the MD is protected, you cannot edit the MD. Slide the tab to close the slot on the side of the MD. • After editing - Press in order to update the TOC information and pull the MD out. - The TOC indicator lights to show that the TOC information has not yet been written to the disc. Undo is possible only when the TOC indicator is lit. E-15 Part Erase ERASE The ability to erase sound without having to re-record is a convenient function of MD. You can erase the entire disc, a single track, or just part of a track. This operation lets you erase part of a track. Erase 1 Before erasing Disc Erase This operation lets you erase all audio and title (character) data to create a blank MD. Please note that once erased, this data can be recovered using the UNDO function. After erasing 2 A 1 2 A1 3 B 3 A2 C 4 B C 1 Play the track containing the part you want to erase. 1 Press & to set this unit to stop mode. 2 Use ! or ⁄ to locate the beginning of the 2 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “Disc Erase?”, then press SET/ENTER. “DiscEraseOK?” appears in the display. part you want to erase (point A), then press * to pause at that point. 3 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “A–B Erase?”, then press SET/ENTER. 3 Press SET/ENTER again. When all audio, name and title data has been erased “Complete” appears momentarily. Point A (from step 2) is registered and “Erase A–_” appears in the display. 4 Use # and ⁄ to locate the end of the part you want to erase (point B). Track Erase 5 Press SET/ENTER to register point B. This operation lets you erase a single track as well as corresponding title data. After you erase the track, the total number of tracks decreases by one and all tracks following that track are renumbered. Example: Erasing track 3 1 Before erasing 2 A 3 B 4 C 5 D 6 E “Check” appears, then the part you specified plays repeatedly and “Erase A–B?” appears in the display. To adjust points A and B Press EDIT repeatedly to display “A point” and “B point” alternately. Adjust the selected point by using $ or › in the direction you want to move the point. Each point can be adjusted up to 2 seconds in either direction. 6 Press SET/ENTER again. The part is erased and “Complete” appears momentarily. After erasing 1 2 A 3 B 4 D 5 E 6 F 1 Use $ or › to select the track you want to erase. 2 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “Erase ?”, then press SET/ENTER. “(track number) Erase OK?” appears in the display. 3 Press SET/ENTER again. The track is erased and “Complete” appears momentarily. If you plan to erase two or more tracks To avoid confusion you should always erase from higher track numbers to lower track numbers. This prevents accidental renumbering of tracks you plan to erase. E-16 Notes • After part erase, a new track number is automatically assigned to the section starting after point B. • Point B cannot be positioned before point A. Disc or Track Title Erase To erase a disc title This function lets you change the position of any track. When you move tracks, all tracks are automatically renumbered. Example: Moving track 2 to the track number 4 1 2 Before moving 3 A 4 B 5 C 6 D E 1 Press & to set this unit to stop mode. 2 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “Title Erase?”, then press SET/ENTER. “Disc Title” and “Erase OK?” appear alternatively in the display. 3 Press SET/ENTER again.

Notes • Note that the DISC and TRACK indicators appear in the display when “Title Erase” is displayed to distinguish between the two operations. • To avoid mistakes when erasing the disc or track names, press DISPLAY repeatedly until the title display screen appears so that titles can be confirmed beforehand. COMBINE This function lets you combine two consecutive tracks into one. After you combine the tracks, the total number of tracks decreases by one and the tracks following the combined tracks are renumbered. Example: Combining tracks 2 and 3 1 Before combining 2 A 1 After combining 3 B 4 C 2 A 5 D 3 B+C 6 E 4 D 5 E 1 Press & to stop playback. 2 Use $ or › to select the second track of the two you want to combine. 3 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “Combine ?”, then press SET/ENTER. “Check” appears momentarily, then the MD recorder plays the 4 seconds before and after the point where the tracks will be connected. “(track number) + (track number) OK?” appears in the display. 4 Press SET/ENTER again. The tracks are combined and “Complete” appears momentarily. E-17 English This operation lets you erase the title of the disc or the title of tracks on a disc. The title of the disc can only be erased during the stop mode, however, the title of the track can be erased during play or stop mode. MOVE DIVIDE DISC MAINTENANCE This function lets you divide one track into two separate tracks by adding a new track number to a specified point in the track. This unit features two disc maintenance functions which optimize performance of your MD discs. The TOC WRITE function allows you to write any edits to the TOC without having to eject the disc. The FRA CHECK function recovers recordable space on a disc that may have been lost because of multiple edit operations. Example: Dividing track 3 1 Before dividing 2 A 4 C 5 D 6 E TOC WRITE 1 After dividing 3 B 2 A 3 B 4 C1 5 C2 6 D 1 Play the track you want to divide. 2 Use ! or ⁄ to locate the point where you want to divide the track, then press * to pause at that position. 3 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “Divide ?”, then press SET/ENTER. “Check” appears momentarily, then “Divide OK ?” appears and the MD recorder starts repeating the point where the track will be divided. 4 If necessary, use $ or › to adjust the position of the point where the track will be divided. The dividing position can be adjusted up to 2 second (255 steps) in either direction. 5 Press SET/ENTER. The track is divided and “Complete” appears momentarily. UNDO The UNDO function lets you immediately return to the condition before an edit is made (note: you cannot undo an edit once you press any other button). 1 Press & to stop the MD recorder. 2 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “Undo ____ *1”, then press SET/ENTER. “Undo OK ?” appears in the display. To cancel undoing, press &. ____*1 : The name of editing you can undo is displayed here. 3 Press SET/ENTER again to undo. Note You cannot undo an edit once it has been written to the TOC. E-18 When making a recording, the TOC (Table Of Contents) of the MD is written as soon as recording is finished. When making disc edits or titling, however, the TOC isn’t automatically written unless the disc is ejected. If the unit is accidentally turned off before writing edits or titling to the TOC, it is possible that these changes will not be saved. By using this function, you can ensure that your edits or titles are saved on the disc. 1 Press & to stop playback. 2 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “TOC Write ?”, then press SET/ENTER. “TOC Write OK ?” appears. 3 Press SET/ENTER. “TOC Writing” blinks in the display momentarily. Note The TOC Write function can only be selected when the TOC indicator is lit in the display. FRA CHECK When edit functions such as “MOVE” and “DIVIDE” are performed, spaces of recordable space may be lost and “TOC Full” may appear in the display to indicate that no more recording can be performed. When this occurs, it may be possible to recover the FRA (Freely Recordable Area) on the disc that was lost during edit functions so that more recording is possible. 1 Press & to stop playback. 2 Press EDIT repeatedly to display “FRA Check ?”, then press SET/ENTER. “FRA Check OK ?” appears. 3 Press SET/ENTER. “Complete” appears momentarily.

To perform the TOC WRITE function 1 Follow the procedure of “TOC WRITE” on page 18. 2 Press on the front panel. (The MD recorder automatically performs the TOC WRITE function.) E-19 English This function lets you title recorded MDs and the individual tracks. Titles may consist of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols for a maximum of up to 250 characters for each title. MD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS The recording system in your MD recorder is radically different from those used in cassette and DAT decks and is characterized by the limitations described below. Note, however, that these limitations are inherent to the MD recording system and are not a result of mechanical trouble. “Can’t REC!” is displayed before the maximum recording time (60 or 74 minutes) has been reached Once 255 tracks have been recorded on one MD, “Can’t REC” is displayed regardless of the total recorded time. “TOC Full” is displayed 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 total number of tracks and causing “TOC 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 and so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording time. “TOC Reading” is displayed continuously The “TOC Reading” display lasts longer than normal when a brand new (blank) disc is inserted. The total recorded time and the remaining time on the MD do not total to the maximum recording time • Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds each, no matter how short the material. • This unit displays the length of the largest continuous blank area as the remaining time. Therefore, if there are several separate blank spaces, the remaining time will only display a time equivalent to the largest continuous blank space. Tracks created through 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. E-20 It is not possible to erase part of a track using the A-B ERASE function This unit organizes the audio data in sound groups and clusters. The minimum size of these units may not consist of less than 10 seconds of stereo sound. 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. If this happens, 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 another track. The correct recorded/playing time may not be displayed during playback of MDs recorded in monaural. DISPLAY MESSAGES Can’t edit! Edit operations are not possible. Can’t REC! Recording is not possible. The loaded disc may be protected or there may not be enough blank space remaining on the disc. TOC Writing The TOC data is being written to the disc. Do not move the unit or pull out the mains lead. If you do, recorded material may not be saved normally. TOC Reading The unit is reading the TOC data. Protected The record protection on the inserted MD is set to “protect”. Can’t REC Recording is not possible. The loaded disc may be damaged. PlayBack MD The inserted MD is a designed for playback only (you cannot record on this disc). DIG in Unlock No digital signal is being input to the selected digital input jack. Monitor Out The monitor out function is active. The audio signal input to the selected input terminals is output from this unit’s output terminals. TMP Over!! The temperature of the unit has exceeded the normal operating temperature. Turn off the unit and let it cool down. If the unit is installed in a place with little ventilation (such as a built in bookcase), move the unit to another location with better ventilation. Disc Full Recording is not possible because there is no blank space remaining on the disc. Title Full! Additional characters cannot be input for the current title because the maximum number of characters for a single title (250) has already been input. UTOC W Error Error occurred when writing to the UTOC. Not Audio The inserted disc is not an audio MD. Tr Protected The selected track cannot be edited because it is protected. TOC Full The disc area allotted for TOC data has become full and further editing is not possible. UTOC Err L0~4 Problem involving UTOC data. No Track Blank disc is played or searched. COPY PROTECTION (SCMS) As a digital audio component, this MD recorder conforms with the Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) standards. The Serial Copy Management 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. 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 on the MD cartridge Trying to force the shutter open will damage the shutter. E-21 English Can’t copy Digital recording cannot be performed. (See “COPY PROTECTION (SCMS)” on this page.) TROUBLESHOOTING If your MD recorder fails to operate normally, check the following table. It lists common operating errors and simple measures which you can take to correct the problem. If it cannot be corrected, or the symptom is not listed, disconnect the recorder’s power cord and contact your authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center for help.
