Recording to MDs 4 Press MENU/NO. When you set Automatic Track Marking to on, "L.SYNC" lights up. The deck marks a track number whenever the input signal level drops to -50 dB (the trigger level for Automatic Track Marking) or below for at least 1.5 seconds. To change the trigger level for Automatic Track Marking Do the procedure below to change the signal level that triggers Automatic Track Marking. 1 While the deck is stopped, press MENU/NO twice. "Setup Menu" appears in the display. 2 Turn AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) until "LS(T)" appears, then press AMS or YES. 3 Turn AMS (or press ./> repeatedly) to select the level, then press AMS or YES. You can set the level at any value between -72 dB and 0 dB, in 2 dB increments. 4 Press MENU/NO. z Additional information on Automatic Track Marking • When recording from a CD player or an MD deck connected to the DIGITAL IN connector, the entire material might be recorded as a single track in the following cases: - When you consecutively record the same track two or more times using single-track repeat play. - When you consecutively record two or more tracks with the same track number but from different CDs or MDs. - When you record tracks from certain CD or multi-disc players. • A track number might not be marked for tracks less than 4 seconds long (in Stereo mode, Monaural mode, and LP2 Stereo mode) or 8 seconds long (in LP4 Stereo mode) during recording. • When recording from a component connected to the ANALOG IN jacks with "T.Mark Off" selected or when recording from a DAT deck or DBS tuner connected to the DIGITAL IN connector, the entire material may be recorded as a single track. • When recording from a DAT deck or DBS tuner connected to the DIGITAL IN connector, the deck will mark a track number whenever the sampling frequency of the input signal changes, regardless of the track marking parameter setting ("T.Mark Lsyn" or "T.Mark Off"). z You can mark track numbers even after recording has finished See "Dividing tracks" on page 33. Note If you turn off the deck or disconnect the AC power cord, the deck will store the last settings ("T.Mark Lsyn" or "T.Mark Off" and the trigger level) and recall them the next time you turn on the deck. Starting recording with six seconds of prestored audio data (Time Machine Recording) Whenever the deck is in recording pause, the deck's buffer memory continuously stores the latest six seconds worth of audio data. When you press AMS (or T.REC), the recording then starts with the data in the buffer memory. Time Machine Recording thus allows you to avoid missing the beginning of material recorded live from an FM or satellite broadcast. AMS 1 Do steps 1 to 6 of "Recording to an MD" on page 14. The deck changes to recording pause. 2 Start playing the program source. 3 Press AMS (or T.REC) at the point where you want to start recording. Recording starts with the six seconds of prestored data in the buffer memory, then continues recording via the buffer memory thereafter. To stop Time Machine Recording Press x. Note The storage of data in the buffer memory starts from the moment the deck changes to recording pause. Thus, if you start recording less than six seconds after changing to recording pause, less than six seconds worth of data will be recorded from the buffer memory. The same is true if the program source had been playing for less than six seconds at the time you start recording. 20 GB Marking track numbers while recording/Starting recording with six seconds of prestored audio data
