Recording a radio
programme

— Time Machine recording

When recording from a radio broadcast, the
first few seconds of material are often lost
because of the time it takes you to ascertain the
contents and press the buttons. To prevent this
loss of material, the "Time Machine recording"
feature constantly stores a maximum of 10
seconds of the most recent audio data in buffer
memory. When you start recording a radio
programme, the recording actually starts with
the 10 seconds of audio data stored in buffer
memory in advance. You can also record
without the prestored 10 seconds as well.
1
Press (OPEN) and insert the MD to be
recorded on.
(See "Playing a disc" on page 9.)

Press (MD REC).
The unit stands by for recording with "z"
flashing and the buttons for recording
((MD REC), (REC STOP), and (REC MENU))
lit in amber.

Press (REC MENU) repeatedly until "TM
REC" appears.
If you want actual recording to start from
the point on the programme where you
press (MD REC) next, select "Normal REC"
in this step.
5
Press (MD REC) again to start recording.
The unit starts recording with the 10
seconds of audio data stored in advance in
buffer memory.
Then "z" stops flashing and the buttons for
recording ((MD REC), (REC STOP), and
(REC MENU)) light in red.
To pause the recording, press (MD REC).
To cancel the recording or recording stand-by,
press (REC STOP).
