Recording to MDs • If "LPstamp:On" is set, "LP:" is recorded as part of the track name, so the number of characters that can be input in a single MD is reduced. Furthermore, "LP:" is automatically copied if the track name is copied or if the track is divided by using the Divide function. • MDs recorded in MD LP (LP2 or LP4 Stereo) mode should be played back on a deck that supports MD LP mode. These MDs cannot be played back on other decks. When you play an MD recorded in MD LP mode, "STEREO" (for an MD recorded in LP2 Stereo mode) or "MONO" (for an MD recorded in LP4 Stereo mode) lights up. • Even if you press REC MODE during recording or recording pause, you cannot change the recording mode. • Even if you press REC MODE repeatedly to select MONO, the monitor signal during recording does not become monaural.
