Recording-related keys
AUTO / MANU. key
This key is used to select whether track numbers are to be
marked automatically during recording or they are to be
marked manually during or after recording. The track num-
bers can be used to locate the beginning of a track during
playback or programming tracks.
Select before starting recording.
AUTO
If a no-sound input has lasted for the time set for the AUTO TIME function
during recording, the track number will be incremented automatically by
“1”. Usually, use this position for recording. Use this mode when
recording all of the tracks in a CD. When recording music containing a
continuous section with a very low level, for example when recording
classic music, the track number may be incremented by “1” after such
a section. In this case, cancel the track number later. It is recommended
to use the MANUAL mode when recording such a kind of music.
During digital recording of CD, the track number is incremented auto-
matically by “1” according to the data contained in the digital informa-
tion. The no-sound blank is not detected.
When the CD track number is increased during manual search of a CD,
the track number recorded on the MD may sometimes fail to be
incremented.
A no sound track may sometimes created at the moment the played CD
stops.
MANUAL
With this setting, the MD track number is not incremented automatically
during recording. Track numbers can be marked either during editing (by
pressing the EDIT key) or after recording (by executing the TRACK DIVIDE
operation 
). Even when “MANUAL” is set, the AUTO CUT and AUTO
PAUSE functions work if the “AUTO CUT” and “REC AUTO PAUSE”
settings are turned on.
This setting is convenient when recording a CD which has been recorded in
live or which contains very low-level sound such as a classical music CD.
Press in stop mode.
Press to monitor the sound being input from the source while the unit is in stop mode.
When the REC INPUT is DIGITAL, the sampling rate (48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz) of the input digital signal can be displayed by
pressing this key.
