....................................................... RECORDING TO A DISC
Setting the Recording Level
There are two knobs used for setting the recording level
depending on the input source. When ANALOG is selected
using INPUT, the ANALOG REC LEVEL knob is used for
setting. When DIGITAL or DISC A is selected, it is not
normally necessary to set the recording level. However it is
possible to lower the recording level using the DIGITAL
REC LEVEL knob.
■ Analog recording
1. Press REC to set this unit to the record pause
mode.
2. Play the loudest passage of the source to be
recorded.
3. Set the recording level using the ANALOG REC
LEVEL knob.
Adjust the recording level so that the OVER indicator
does not light at the loudest sound levels.
■ Digital recording
The digital recording level is set by default to 0dB, the level
of the input source. Normally, it is not necessary to adjust
the recording level.
However, it is possible to lower the recording level between
0 and –64dB if necessary.
The recording level can be adjusted by 1dB steps using the
DIGITAL REC LEVEL knob (MULTI JOG knob) (+/– on the
remote), while this unit is in the record or record pause
mode.
Manual Track Marking
This unit can automatically place track markers. However
you can also manually place track markers as you like
anywhere in your recording.
While recording, press TRACK NO. (TRACK NO. WRITE
on the remote).
• A new track number is added at the location on the disc
corresponding to the time TRACK NO. (TRACK NO.
WRITE on the remote) is pressed.
• Tracks cannot be shorter than 4 seconds, and a disc
cannot contain more than 99 tracks. Even if there is time
remaining on the disc, further recording is impossible
once 99 tracks have been recorded.
Notes
• Manual track marking is recommended for the following:
* When an analog source is being recorded that contains a
section or numerous sections with levels too low to be
detected on the level meter.
* When recording digital satellite broadcasts
• Manual track marking is possible even during synchronized
recording only if it is not digital recording from an external
unit.
