• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat built-up in the units.
Since the basic settings and common operations are almost
identical to those of FS-G6, this manual mainly explains
MD related operations. Concerning FS-G6’s settings and
operations, refer to its Instructions for details.

Recording onto an MD
Things to Know Before You Start Recording
• It should be noted that it may be unlawful to pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of
the owner of copy right in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable program and in any literary,
dramatic, or artistic embodied therein.
• The sampling frequency rate converter built in the MD recorder allows you to record a digital source if its
sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz. If no source equipment is connected to the AUX terminal
or if the sampling frequency of the connected equipment is not 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz, “DIGITAL
UNLOCK” appears in the display window (no recording is possible).
• When you record onto partially recorded MD, its contents are not erased or overwritten. The recording starts
from the point following the last recorded track of the MD.
If you want to record on such an MD from the beginning, you have to erase its contents first (see “ALL ERASE
Function” on page 23).
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME dial. Thus, during
recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.
About the track marks
To avoid erasing important recordings
Recordable MDs have an erasure protect tab so that
important recordings are not accidentally erased. When you
finish recording or editing, slide open the erasure protect
tab on the cartridge side surface. New recording or editing
is now no longer possible.
When playing an MD, you can move among the tracks
using MULTI JOG dial or < / > button quickly, and
4 / ¢ or UP/DOWN button step by step.
You can do this because there is a mark recorded at
the beginning of each track enabling you to locate the
track. This mark is called a “track mark” and the
portion between two adjacent track marks is called a
“track.”
To do re-recording or editing, return the tab to the closed
position.
• When recording from a digital source such as a
CD player, a track mark is recorded automatically
at the beginning of each track.
• When recording from an analog source such as
FM/AM broadcasts, no track mark is recorded on
the MD. This means that, when playing this MD,
the MD recorder will regard the entire recording as
one track (track 1). You will not be able to select
directly a certain portion or navigate through them.
However, if there is a blank of three seconds or more,
the MD recorder will consider it as a blank separating
2 tracks and consequently put a track mark.
An erasure protect tab

To put a track mark manually while recording an

Handling MDs
MD Handling Precautions
To maintain high quality audio for a long period
Since the disc is accommodated inside a cartridge, it
can be handled easily without caring about dust and
dirt. However, to maintain the high audio quality for
an extended period, use care in the following points.
Installation location
Do not install the MD in following places.
• In a place subject to direct sunlight or where the
temperature rises, for example in a closed automobile.
The disc may be warped and unusable in these places.
• In a bathroom or where the humidity is high. The disc
may be rusted in these places.
• On a beach or sandbox. The disc surface may be scratched
or damaged if grit penetrates through an opening on the
cartridge.
Periodical maintenance
When the cartridge gets dusty or dirty, wipe with a soft,
dry cloth.
Do not open the shutter.
The shutter is usually locked to prevent opening. Do
not force it open or the disc may be destroyed.

Additional Information
MD Disc Types
There are two types of MDs: Premastered (prerecorded) and Recordable (blank).
Premastered MDs
Premastered MDs, which have been recorded at music studio, can be played back like regular CDs. On an MD of this
type, data is recorded as the presence or absence of tiny pits.Alaser beam focuses on the pits on the surface of the MD and
reflects the detection back to the lens in the MD recorder. The MD recorder then decodes the signals and plays them back
as music. This type of MD is called an “optical disc.”
Recordable MDs
Recordable MDs, which use magneto-optical technology, can be recorded and played back repeatedly. The laser inside
the MD recorder applies heat to the MD, demagnetizing the magnetic layer of the MD for recording and playback. This
type of MD is called “magnetic-optical disc.”
Sound Cruise
Premastered MD
Recordable MD
ATRAC (Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding)
The MD provides 80 (max.) minutes recording and playback time, more than that of an audio CD, but in a diameter of
only 64 mm. This ability to store such a large amount of data is the result of ATRAC, an audio compression technique
developed for MD. This technology cuts out faint sounds that would not be heard by the human beings. This technology,
based on human sensitivity to sounds, reduces recorded data volume up to about one-fifth of that of the original data.
UTOC (User Table Of Contents)
Found only on recordable MDs, this area contains sub-data (track number, recording data, etc.) which can be rewritten by
the user.
UTOC enables us to search tracks quickly and edit tracks on the MD.

Serial Copy Management System (SCMS)
The MD recorder integrated to this unit uses the Serial Copy Management System which allows only first-generation
digital copies to be made of premastered software (like CDs or prerecorded MDs).

Sound Skip Guard Memory
The biggest weakness of discs is their susceptibility to vibration. The “Sound Skip Guard Memory” has been developed
to cope with this weakness.
With this function, a few seconds of signals read by the optical read head from the disc are first stored in memory before
being reproduced as audio signals. Thus, even when vibration or shock interrupts signals being read, these stored signals
can continue to reproduce sounds for the few seconds. Thus, the user will enjoy uninterrupted music.

MD Restrictions
The MD records data in an original format that differs from that of conventional cassette tapes or DATs. Since there
are some limitations with this recording format, the following types of symptoms may occur. These symptoms are
not malfunctions.
Symptoms
Cause
“DISC FULL” appears, even though there is still
enough remaining time on an MD.
There is a maximum number of tracks which can be
recorded, regardless of recording time. More than 254
tracks cannot be recorded on an MD.
“DISC FULL” appears even though the number of
tracks and recording time do not reach the limit.
• Repeating erasure and recording on the same MD
creates many blank portions sparsely on the MD.
When recording on such an MD, a track is recorded
on these blank portions sparsely. If a track is divided
and recorded into so many portions, “DISC FULL”
appears.
• If a divided portion of less than 8 seconds is made
while a track is recorded on the MD, that track cannot
be joined to another track using the JOIN function.
Furthermore, if that track is erased, the remaining
time of the MD may not increase exactly by the
erased amount.
The JOIN function sometimes does not work.
The remaining time on the MD does not increase even
when tracks are erased.
The sound drops out during fast forward or fast rewind.
• If a track has been divided into many portions while
being recorded on the MD, sounds will drop out while
fast forwarding or reversing such an MD.
You cannot record on a blank portion of less than 2
seconds in the MD. For this reason, the actual recording
time of discs may become shorter.
The amount of recorded time on the MD added to the
amount of remaining time is shorter than the MD’s
total possible recording time.
