Symptom Cause/Remedy Stereo sound is heard • This is normal. During digital recording, the sound will be stereo in in the headphones/ the headphones/earphones, even though the recorded sound is earphones while monaural. recording in monaural. Momentary noise is heard when recording. • Due to the special digital audio compression technology used in LP4 stereo mode, momentary noise may occur on very rare occasions with certain sound sources. , Record in SP or LP2 mode. The lid does not open • The lid does not open until "SYSTEM FILE WRITING" disappears after recording. in the display. "TRACK FULL" appears even before the disc has reached the maximum recording time and the recording cannot be done. • This is due to the MiniDisc system limitation. When 254 tracks (on a standard disc) or 2,047 tracks (on a disc used in Hi-MD mode) have been recorded on the disc, "TRACK FULL" appears regardless of the total recorded time. More than 254 or 2,047 tracks cannot be recorded on the disc. , To continue recording, erase unnecessary tracks. The remaining recording time does not increase even after erasing numerous short tracks. • This is due to the MiniDisc system limitation (in MD mode only). Tracks of under 12 seconds (in SP stereo), 24 seconds (in LP2 stereo mode or monaural), or 48 seconds (in LP4 stereo mode) in length are not counted and so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording time. The total recorded time and the remaining time on the disc may not total the maximum recording time (60, 74, or 80 minutes). • This is due to the MiniDisc system limitation (in MD mode only). Normally, recording is done in minimum units of approximately 2 seconds (in SP stereo), 4 seconds (in LP2 stereo mode or monaural), or 8 seconds (in LP4 stereo mode). When recording is stopped, the last unit of recording always uses this unit of 2 seconds, 4 seconds, or 8 seconds even if the actual recording is shorter. Likewise, when recording is restarted after the stop, the recorder will automatically insert a blank space amounting to 2 seconds, 4 seconds, or 8 seconds before the next recording. (This is to prevent accidental erasing of a previous track whenever a new recording is started). Therefore, the actual recording time will decrease whenever a recording is stopped by a maximum of 6 seconds, 12 seconds, or 24 seconds. "TRACK FULL" appears even before the disc has reached the maximum track number or recording time. • This is due to the MiniDisc system limitation. Repeated recording and erasing may cause fragmentation and scattering of data. Although those scattered data can be read, each fragment is counted as a track. In this case, the number of tracks may reach 254 (on a standard disc) or 2,047 (on a disc used in Hi-MD mode) and further recording is not possible. , To continue recording, erase unnecessary tracks. 90
