Recording on MDs

Synchro-Recording With a Sony

CD Player Z

By connecting your deck to a Sony CD player or Hi-Fi

Component System, you can easily dub CDs onto MDs using the CD synchro buttons on the remote. If your deck is connected to a Sony CD player by a digital input cable, track numbers are automatically marked as appear on the original even when “T.Mark Off” is selected in Setup Menu 02. If your deck is connected to a Sony CD player by audio connecting cords through the LINE (ANALOG) IN jacks, track numbers are automatically marked when you set Setup Menu 02 to

“T.Mark LSyn” (see page 13).

As the same remote controls both the CD player and the deck, you may have trouble operating both units if they are far from each other. If you do, place the CD player close to this deck.
