stereo mode recording, the playing time (recording time)  
of the disc is doubled (to max. 148 minutes) from that in  
the stereo mode.

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.  
AUTO  
Ifano-soundinputhaslastedforthetimesetfortheAUTOTIMEfunction  
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.  
Select before starting recording.  
AUTO/MANU.  
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.

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.

During recording of a CD, the track number may be incremented by “1” at the moment the CD starts to play. This is caused by a signal  
contained in the digital signal component of the CD. Unnecessary track numbers can be erased by following the procedure for “Erasing the  
track being played (TRACK ERASE).”

DIGITAL recording and SCMS  
Note that the digital recording of Mini Discs is not possible in the following cases.  
Note on the sampling rate converter  
Three types of digital signals are usually used according to the sampling frequencies. The sampling frequencies vary  
depending on the types of digital equipment as shown below.  
48 kHz  
44.1 kHz : Standard mode of DAT, CD, MD, etc.  
32 kHz : Standard and long-hour modes of DAT, A mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc.  
: Standard mode of DAT, B mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc.  
In general, high-quality recording based on digital signal transmission is available only when the sampling frequency of the  
source equipment matches that of the recorder equipment. However, this unit incorporates a sampling rate converter so that  
it can also record digital signals sampled at 48 kHz and 32 kHz by converting their sampling frequency into the sampling  
frequency of MD (44.1 kHz).  
The SCMS may be activated with certain type of satellite broadcasting.

Editing  
DMF-9020/MD-2070 (En)  
After recording of a commercially-available recordable Mini  
Disc, the recording can be edited in various ways. Note that  
it is impossible to edit a playback-only Mini Disc.  
Limitation of functionality due to MD standard  
Some functions are limited due to the restrictions im-  
posed by the MD standard. Before considering the symp-  
toms as a sign of trouble with the unit, please read  
31  
(Editing is not possible while the “PGM” indicator is lit.)  
The MD recorder acts based on the data loaded from the  
disc into the memory. As this data is written in the disc at  
the moment it is ejected, be sure to eject the disc every  
time after the title input or editing operation.

additional track number before the passage you are specially fond of, it is easy to skip to there when you play the disc later.  
Note that the track numbers of the tracks located after the divided track are automatically incremented.
