Additional Information
System limitations of MDs
The recording system in your MD deck has the
limitations described below.
Note, however, that these limitations are due to the
inherent nature of the MD recording system itself, not
to mechanical causes.
“Disc Full!” appears before the MD
has reached the maximum recording
time
When 255 tracks have been recorded on the MD,
“Disc Full!” appears regardless of the total recorded
time. More than 255 tracks cannot be recorded on the
MD. To continue recording, erase unnecessary tracks
or use another recordable MD.
“Disc Full!” appears before the
maximum number of tracks (255) is
reached
Fluctuations in emphasis within tracks are sometimes
interpreted as track intervals, increasing the track
count and causing “Disc Full!” to appear.
The remaining recording time does
not increase even after erasing
numerous short tracks
Tracks shorter than 12 seconds* are not counted, so
erasing them may not increase the recording time.
* During stereo recording. (approximately 24 seconds
during monaural and LP2 stereo recording, or 48
seconds during LP4 stereo recording)
Some tracks cannot be combined
with others
Tracks may not be combined if they have been edited.
The total recorded time and the
remaining time on the MD do not add
up to the maximum recording time
Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds*
each, no matter how short the material. The recorded
contents may be shorter than the maximum recording
capacity. Disc space may also be reduced by
scratches.
* During stereo recording. (approximately 4 seconds
during monaural and LP2 stereo recording, or 8
seconds during LP4 stereo recording)
The sound may drop-out while
searching the edited tracks
Tracks created through editing may exhibit sound
dropout during searching because high-speed play
requires time to search for the position on the disc
when the tracks are not in order.
Track numbers cannot be marked
When “LEVEL-SYNC” (page 23) lights up in the
display window during analog recording, the track
numbers may not be marked at the beginning of the
track:
• if the input signal is below a certain fixed level for
less than 2 seconds between tracks.
• if the input signal is below a certain fixed level for
more than 2 seconds in the middle of the track.
• if you record a track that is 4 seconds or less*.
* During Stereo, Monaural or LP2 Stereo recording
mode. (In LP4 Stereo recording mode: 8 seconds
or less)
Extra tracks are created
When there is a long silence between CD tracks, an
extra track may be created.
