If the condition of the loaded CD or the
system is poor, and retry fails, CD-MD
High-Speed Synchro Recording is disabled.

Tips
You can record only your favorite CD tracks with
CD Program Play. After step 3, follow the same
procedures as from step 2 to 5 in CD Program Play
(see page 11). Then go to step 4.
You can switch the recording mode before step 3
and record for long times. For details, see
“Recording for long times” on page 22.
If you want to record only a portion of a CD track
to an MD, you must first record the entire CD track
(using CD-MD Synchro Recording or Rec It). Then
use the A-B Erase function to erase the unwanted
portions on the MD (see page 35).
Notes
The following items are either inoperative or cannot
be used during CD-MD Synchro Recording and
CD-MD High-Speed Synchro Recording:
— The Auto Cut function (see page 25)
— The recording level specified in the Setup menu
— Recorded signal monitoring (CD-MD High-
Speed Synchro Recording only).
You cannot pause recording during CD-MD
Synchro Recording and CD-MD High-Speed
Synchro Recording.
If you don’t perform step 5 within about 1 minute
after step 4, the system returns to the original
condition.
The sound does not come from the TAPE OUT jack
during CD-MD High-Speed Synchro Recording.
