Features  
! A Portable MD player with "Mobile 1-bit  
digital amplifier"  
! A Net MD portable recorder  
Audio data saved on the hard disk of a PC can be trans-  
ferred to a Net MD-compatible recorder using the pro-  
vided software "BeatJam".  
" The 1-bit digital signal is sent to a constant voltage cir-  
cuit directly from a high-order  
modulation circuit.  
The amplifier transmits and amplifies the signal, and  
allows extremely natural and clear sound with little  
deterioration.  
" High-quality sound is achieved by vast improvements  
in the sound resolution. The speed and the smooth-  
ness of rise of the sound are consequently ensured.  
! This product features up to 50 times  
high speed transfer from PC to MD in  
LP4 mode  
" Transfer speed varies by the recording mode. In SP  
mode, the speed is less than 1/4 of that in LP4 mode.  
" Time for initialisation and the termination process is  
omitted from the calculation of transfer speed.  
" To achieve maximum speed, use the AC adaptor and  
a high capacity battery together.  
! "4-pole plug earphone" optimizes  
"Mobile 1-bit digital amplifier"  
" Sharp has adopted "4-pole plug" earphone that com-  
pletely separate right and left sound. Enjoy the high  
quality sound of the "Mobile 1-bit digital amplifier".  
" Transfer speed depends on the performance of your  
PC or the number of tracks to record.

Notes:  
! About the recording mode  
" In monaural recording, the sound on the right and left  
channels is mixed even if the input source is in stereo.  
Although you can hear the stereo sound from the ear-  
phones, the recorded sound is monaural.  
" Tracks recorded in 2 times long recording and 4  
times long recording modes cannot be played with  
the unit that does not support these modes. On  
such a unit, no sound is heard. (The operation may  
vary depending on the unit.)  
You can select the recording mode from stereo recording,  
2 times long recording, 4 times long recording, and mon-  
aural recording. Recordable time varies depending on  
the recording mode. If the tracks are recorded on an 80-  
minute MiniDisc, its recording time changes as follows:

! About ATRAC  
The ATRAC (Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding) sys-  
tem compresses the sound data into 1/5 by cutting out  
the inaudible sound. Since the sound is selected based  
on psychoacoustics masking, the sound quality is not  
impaired. This unit is equipped with the ATRAC3 com-  
pressing system that can reduce the sound data to 1/10  
or 1/20 of its original size. By employing this system, 2  
times and 4 times long recordings are enabled in stereo  
mode.  
MONO  
Monaural  
! Caution for 4 times long recording  
(LP4)  
Special compression methods are used to achieve 4  
times long recording. This may cause some noise to be  
recorded occasionally. When the highest quality is  
required, stereo or LP2 recording is recommended.

" It is recommended that the MD portable recorder  
be used with an AC adaptor.  
" If the power supply to the PC or the MD portable

MiniDisc System Limitations  
The unit may have the following symptoms whilst recording or editing. The unit is not out of order.  
SYMPTOM  
LIMITATIONS  
"DISC FULL" or "TOC FULL" appears  
even though the MiniDisc still has re-  
cording time left.  
More than 255 tracks (maximum) cannot be recorded regardless of  
the recording time. If the MiniDisc is recorded or edited repeatedly or  
if it has scratches (recording skips scratched parts), you may not be  
able to record the maximum tracks above.  
The remaining recording time does not  
increase even though you erased  
tracks.  
The unit does not count non-recorded portions that last 12 or fewer  
seconds to display the remaining recording time. The time may not  
increase even if you erase short tracks.  
The total of the recorded time and the  
remaining time does not match the max-  
imum recordable time.  
One cluster (approximately 2 seconds) is the minimum unit for re-  
cording. For example, a 3-second track uses 2 clusters (approximate-  
ly 4 seconds). Therefore, the actual recordable time may be shorter  
than the displayed time.  
Combine function does not work.  
Sound skips in fast reverse/forward.  
A MiniDisc on which recording and editing are repeated may not al-  
low the combine function.  
8
If one track is divided and recorded in separate places on a repeat-  
edly recorded or edited MiniDisc, sound may skip.  
A track number is created in the middle  
of a track.  
A track number may be created if there are scratches or dust on the  
MiniDisc.
