Tascam MD-CD1MKIII ユーザーズマニュアル

The MD-CD1MKIII makes it easy to dub from CD to MD. 

Selected tracks or the entire disc can be dubbed.

First, load the CD to be used as the dubbing source into 

the CD deck, then insert a recordable MiniDisc into the 

MD deck.

Copy-protected CDs cannot be dubbed.
To dub the entire CD
While the CD deck is stopped, press the DUBBING button 

on either the front panel or the remote control.
To dub a selected track on the CD
During playback of the desired track, or when that track is 

cued and the deck is in playback standby mode, press the 

DUBBING button on either the front panel or the remote 

control.
The track is selected for dubbing.
Start dubbing
Dubbing can be started when preparation is complete 

and 

Dubbing Wait

 stops blinking.

Dubbing is started by pressing the PLAY button on the 

CD or MD control panel.
Fade-in recording is performed if the FADER button on 

the remote control is pressed instead of the PLAY button. 

(The speed changes to 

NORMAL

 if it has been set to 

HIGH

.)

If the level is set to anything other than 0dB in 

REC

”. (xx.x: Setting value)

In this case, check the level as necessary.
Stop dubbing
Pressing the STOP button stops dubbing.
Dubbing ends in a fade-out if the FADER button on the 

remote control is pressed instead of the STOP button. 

(If dubbing started with a fade-in or if the speed is set to 

NORMAL

)

If the end of a disc (when the entire disc is dubbed) or 

track (when a track is dubbed) is reached, the normal stop 

operation is performed even if dubbing started with a 

fade-in.

Dubbing is performed at the specified speed (see 

• 

below).
For the fade-in/fade-out time setting, see “Fade-in and 

• 

fade-out recording” on page 38.

Using the 

REC MODE?

 option on the REC submenu 

of the MD menu, select the recording mode from the 

following choices.

ST:

standard stereo 

recording mode

default, with no display 

indication

MONO

monaural recording 

mode

display

LP2

LP4

recording mode

LP4

 lights up in the 

display

In MONO mode, the same signals are output from the 

• 

left and right channels of the headphone terminal and 

rear panel audio output terminal.
In MONO mode, the recording time is twice that in ST 

• 

mode.
The recording time in LP2 mode is twice that in ST 

• 

mode.
The recording time in LP4 mode is four times that in ST 

• 

mode.
The remaining MD recording time indicated depends 

• 

upon the recording mode setting.
Recordings made in different recording modes can be 

• 

combined on the same disc.
Since a special data compression technology is used 

• 

for LP4 mode (quarter-time recording for four times 

the recording time in stereo), there is the very slight 

possibility of spikes of noise being generated. If sound 

quality is an important consideration, we do not 

recommend the use of the LP4 mode.

Use the 

REC SPEED?

 option on the REC submenu of 

the MD menu to select either 

NORMAL

 or 

HIGH

 speed 

dubbing.

NORMAL

: dubbing is performed during regular playback.
