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.
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. A laser beam focuses on the pits on the surface of the MD and reflects the detection back to the lens in the MD recorder.
Continued 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). ABCD EFG Sound Skip Guard Memory The biggest weakness of discs is their susceptibility to vibration.
MD Messages Message BLANK DISC CANNOT JOIN DIGITAL IN UNLOCK DISC ERROR DISC FULL DISC PROTECTED EMERGENCY STOP LOAD ERROR MD NO DISC NON-AUDIO CANNOT COPY PLAYBACK DISC SCMS CANNOT COPY TRACK PROTECTED Signification The disc is blank. You are trying to join tracks which cannot be joined.
Continued 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.
