MD — Recording  
When you use a partially recorded  
MD  
Recording starts after the recorded tracks.  
Before you start recording  
MDs (Mini Disc) let you digitally record and  
play music with high quality sound. Another  
feature of MDs is track marking. The track  
marking feature lets you quickly locate a  
specific point or easily edit the recorded tracks.  
However, depending on the source you record,  
the recording method and the way the track  
numbers are recorded differ.  
Note on MD track numbers  
On an MD, the track numbers (track sequence), track  
start and end point information, etc., are recorded in  
the TOC*2 area independent of the sound information.  
You can edit recorded tracks quickly by modifying  
the TOC information.  
*2 TOC: Table Of Contents  
After recording  
When the source you record from is:  
This system’s CD player  
Press MD Z to remove the MD or press  
?/1 (power) to turn off the system.  
“TOC” starts flashing. The TOC is updated and  
recording is completed.  
– The MD deck performs digital recording.*1  
– Track numbers are automatically marked as  
on the original CD. However, track numbers  
may not be marked for some tracks (see page  
47).  
Before pulling out the power cord  
MD recording is completed when the MD  
Table of Contents (TOC) is updated. The TOC  
is updated when you eject the MD or press ?/1  
to turn off the system. Do not pull out the  
power cord before updating the TOC (while  
“TOC” is lit) or while updating the TOC (while  
“TOC” is flashing) to ensure a complete  
recording.

Protecting a recorded MD  
To protect a recorded MD, slide the tab on the  
side of the MD to open the slot. In this position,  
the MD cannot be recorded. To record on the  
MD, slide the tab to close the slot.  
– The MD deck performs analog recording.  
– A track number is marked at the beginning  
of a recording, but when you turn on the  
Level-Synchro Recording function (see page

Recording a CD on an MD  
Tips  
— CD-MD Synchro Recording/CD-MD  
High-Speed Synchro Recording  
• You can record only your favorite CD tracks with  
CD Program Play. After step 3, follow the same  
procedures as from step 2 to 5 in CD Program Play  
(see page 11). Then go to step 4.  
• You can switch the recording mode before step 3  
and record for long times. For details, see  
In addition to normal-speed recording, you can  
make a digital recording of a CD on an MD at  
twice the speed of normal CD-MD Synchro  
Recording.  
“Recording for long times” on page 22.  
• If you want to record only a portion of a CD track  
to an MD, you must first record the entire CD track  
(using CD-MD Synchro Recording or Rec It). Then  
use the A-B Erase function to erase the unwanted  
portions on the MD (see page 30).  
1 Load a recordable MD.  
2 Load a CD.  
3 Press FUNCTION repeatedly until “CD”  
appears in the display.  
Notes  
• The following items are either inoperative or cannot  
be used during CD-MD Synchro Recording and  
CD-MD High-Speed Synchro Recording:  
— The Auto Cut function (see page 25)  
— The recording level specified in the Setup menu  
— Recorded signal monitoring (CD-MD High-  
Speed Synchro Recording only).  
• You cannot pause recording during CD-MD  
Synchro Recording and CD-MD High-Speed  
Synchro Recording.  
• If you don’t perform step 5 within about 1 minute  
after step 4, the system returns to the original  
condition.  
• The sound does not come from the TAPE OUT jack  
during CD-MD High-Speed Synchro Recording.  
4 Press CD SYNC NORMAL.  
To record at high speed (CD-MD High-  
Speed Synchro Recording), press CD  
SYNC HIGH.  
“NORMAL SPEED” and “NORM” (or  
“HIGH SPEED” and “HIGH” for high-  
speed recording) appears. The MD deck  
stands by for recording and the CD player  
pauses for play.  
5 Press u (or MD N on the remote).  
Recording starts. You cannot monitor the  
recorded signal during high-speed  
recording.  
If “Retry” flashes in the display after  
you press u (or MD N on the  
remote) in step 5  
A reading failure has occurred, and the system  
is trying to read the data again.  
• If the retry was successful, the MD deck  
continues with CD-MD High-Speed Synchro  
Recording.  
• If the condition of the loaded CD or the  
system is poor, and retry fails, CD-MD  
High-Speed Synchro Recording is disabled.  
In this case, “NORM” flashes in the display  
and the MD deck automatically starts  
recording in normal CD-MD Synchro  
Recording. Note that monitoring of the  
recorded signal is not possible when this  
occurs.

Recording for long times  
To continue and record, follow the  
procedures described on the various  
recording pages.  
In addition to normal stereo recording, this  
system has two long time modes: LP2 and LP4.  
When recording in LP2 mode, you can record 2  
times the normal recordable time, and in LP4  
mode, you can record 4 times the normal  
recordable time. In addition, the recordable  
time for monaural recording is approximately  
double the stereo recording time.  
Tip  
The selected recording mode is kept even after  
recording has finished, so be sure to check the  
recording mode before recording.  
Notes  
• Tracks recorded in MDLP (LP2 or LP4) Stereo  
mode cannot be played back on a system that does  
not support MDLP mode.  
• During recording or recording pause, you cannot  
change the recording mode.  
LP4 Stereo mode (4× long time recording  
mode) achieves a long stereo recording time by  
use of a special compression system. When  
placing emphasis on sound quality, Stereo  
recording or LP2 Stereo recording (2× long  
time recording mode) is recommended.  
• Even if you select “MONO REC”, the monitor  
signal during recording does not become monaural.  
Note  
MDs recorded in MDLP (LP2 or LP4) mode cannot  
be played back on a system that does not support  
MDLP mode. In addition, you cannot perform S.F  
Edit, etc., for MDs recorded in MDLP mode.

Notes  
• The recorded “LP:” is a stamp which appears to  
indicate that the track cannot be played back when  
you try to play the track on system that does not  
support MDLP mode. It does not appear for systems  
that support MDLP mode.  
• When set to “On”, “LP:” is recorded as the track  
name, so the number of characters that can be input  
to an MD is reduced. In addition if you divide an  
“LP:” track using the Divide function, “LP:” is also  
added to the latter track.

Additional Information  
On heat buildup  
• Although the unit heats up during operation, this is  
not a malfunction.  
• To prevent heat build-up in the system, place the  
system in a location with adequate ventilation and  
refrain from placing anything on the top of the  
cabinet.  
If you continuously use this system at a large volume,  
the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom  
rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not  
touch the cabinet.  
Precautions  
The nameplate is located on the bottom exterior.  
CAUTION  
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.  
Replace only with the same or equivalent type  
recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used  
batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.  
To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the ventilation  
hole for the cooling fan.  
On operating voltage  
Before operating the system, check that the operating  
voltage of your system is identical with the voltage of  
your local power supply.  
On operation  
• If the system is brought directly from a cold place  
to a warm place, or is placed in a very damp room,  
moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD  
player or the MD deck. Should this occur, the  
system will not operate properly. Remove the CD or  
MD and leave the system turned on for about an  
hour until the moisture evaporates.  
On safety  
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power  
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall  
outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.  
• Unplug the system from the wall outlet (mains) if it  
will not be used for an extended period of time. To  
disconnect the power cord (mains lead), pull it out  
by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.  
• When moving the unit, remove any disc that may be  
in the system.  
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the  
system, unplug the system and have it checked by  
qualified personnel before operating it any further.  
• AC power cord must be changed only at the  
qualified service shop.  
If you have any questions or problems concerning  
your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.  
On the speaker system  
Although this speaker system is magnetically  
shielded, there may be cases where the picture on  
some TV sets becomes magnetically distorted. In  
such a case, turn off the power of the TV set once,  
and after 15 to 30 minutes turn it on again.  
On placement  
• Do not place the system in an inclined position.  
• Do not place the system in locations where it is:  
— Extremely hot or cold  
If there seems to be no improvement, locate  
the speaker system further away from the TV set.  
Also, be sure not to place objects in which magnets  
are attached or used near the speaker system, such as  
audio racks, TV stands, and toys. These may cause  
magnetic distortion to the picture due to their  
interaction with the system.  
— Dusty or dirty  
— Very humid  
— Subject to vibrations  
— Subject to direct sunlight

star) cannot be played on this system. Attempting to  
do so may damage the system. Do not use such  
discs.  
• Affix the label supplied with the disc only to the  
specified label indentation. Do not affix the label  
around the shutter or in other locations. Note that  
the shape of the indentation depends on the disc.  
Note on CD-R/CD-RW play  
Label  
position  
Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may not be  
played back because of scratches, dirt, recording  
condition or the drive’s characteristics. Besides, the  
discs, which are not yet finalized at the end of  
recording, cannot be played back.  
Shutter  
• Wipe the disc cartridge with a dry cloth to remove  
dirt.  
• Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat  
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car  
parked in direct sunlight.  
• With the following kinds of CDs, you may  
experience a reading failure or noise when recorded  
on an MD:  
Notes on speakers  
• Although the rear side of the speakers heats up  
during operation, this is not a malfunction.  
If you continuously use this system at a large volume,  
the temperature of the rear side of the speakers rises  
considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not touch  
the rear side of the speakers.  
CDs with adhesive labels attached to them.  
Irregularly shaped CDs (for example, heart- or  
star- shaped).  
CDs with printed text concentrated on one side  
only.  
Cleaning the cabinet  
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth  
slightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do  
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or  
solvent such as thinner, benzene or alcohol.  
Old CDs.  
Scratched CDs.  
Dirty CDs.  
Warped CDs.  
• If the following occurs during CD play or  
recording, a reading error may occur or noise may  
be produced in the recorded results:  
The system is bumped.  
The system is placed on an uneven or soft  
surface.  
The system is located near a speaker, door, or  
other source of vibration.  
• If a reading error occurs, an extra track with no  
sound may be created. This extra track can be  
erased by using the editing function (see page 29).  
46  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The total recorded time and the  
remaining time on the MD do not add  
up to the maximum recording time  
Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds*  
each, no matter how short the material. The recorded  
contents may be shorter than the maximum recording  
capacity. Disc space may also be reduced by  
scratches.  
System limitations of MDs  
The recording system in your MD deck has the  
limitations described below.  
Note, however, that these limitations are due to the  
inherent nature of the MD recording system itself, not  
to mechanical causes.  
“Disc Full!” appears before the MD  
has reached the maximum recording  
time  
When 255 tracks have been recorded on the MD,  
“Disc Full!” appears regardless of the total recorded  
time. More than 255 tracks cannot be recorded on the  
MD. To continue recording, erase unnecessary tracks  
or use another recordable MD.  
* During stereo recording. (approximately 4 seconds  
during monaural and LP2 stereo recording, or 8  
seconds during LP4 stereo recording)  
The sound may drop-out while  
searching the edited tracks  
Tracks created through editing may exhibit sound  
dropout during searching because high-speed play  
requires time to search for the position on the disc  
when the tracks are not in order.  
“Disc Full!” appears before the  
maximum number of tracks (255) is  
reached  
Fluctuations in emphasis within tracks are sometimes  
interpreted as track intervals, increasing the track  
count and causing “Disc Full!” to appear.  
Track numbers cannot be marked  
When “LEVEL-SYNC” (page 23) lights up in the  
display window during analog recording, the track  
numbers may not be marked at the beginning of the  
track:  
• if the input signal is below a certain fixed level for  
less than 2 seconds between tracks.  
The remaining recording time does  
not increase even after erasing  
numerous short tracks  
Tracks shorter than 12 seconds* are not counted, so  
erasing them may not increase the recording time.  
* During stereo recording. (approximately 24 seconds  
during monaural and LP2 stereo recording, or 48  
seconds during LP4 stereo recording)  
• if the input signal is below a certain fixed level for  
more than 2 seconds in the middle of the track.  
• if you record a track that is 4 seconds or less*.  
* During Stereo, Monaural or LP2 Stereo recording  
mode. (In LP4 Stereo recording mode: 8 seconds  
or less)  
Extra tracks are created  
When there is a long silence between CD tracks, an  
extra track may be created.  
Some tracks cannot be combined  
with others  
Tracks may not be combined if they have been edited.

Troubleshooting  
If you have any problem using this system, use  
the following checklist.  
Guide to the Serial Copy  
Management System  
Digital audio components, such as CDs, MDs, and  
DATs let you copy music easily with high quality by  
processing music as a digital signal.  
To protect the copyrighted music programs, this  
system uses the Serial Copy Management System that  
allows you to make only a single copy of a digitally  
recorded source through digital-to-digital  
connections.  
First, check that the power cord is connected  
firmly and that the speakers are connected  
correctly and firmly.  
Should any problem persist, consult your  
nearest Sony dealer. When bringing the system  
in for servicing, be sure to bring the speaker  
system (SA-C5B/C5S) along with the main unit  
(HCD-C5).  
You can make only a first generation copy*  
through a digital-to-digital connection.  
That is:  
General  
1 You can make a copy of a commercially  
available digital sound program (for example,  
a CD or MD), but you cannot make a second  
copy from the first-generation copy.  
There is no sound.  
• Adjust the volume.  
2 You can make a copy of a digital signal from a  
digitally recorded analog sound program (for  
example, an analog record or a music  
cassette tape) or from a digital satellite  
broadcast program, but you cannot make a  
second copy.  
* A first-generation copy means a digital recording of  
a digital signal made on digital audio equipment.  
For example, if you record from this system’s CD  
player to the MD deck, you make a first-generation  
copy.  
• Make sure the headphones are not connected.  
• Check the speaker connections (see page 6).  
• There is no sound output during CD-MD High-  
Speed Synchro Recording.  
Sound comes from one channel, or unbalanced  
left and right volume.  
• Connect the speaker cords properly (see page 6).  
• Place the speakers as symmetrically as possible.  
• Connect the supplied speakers.  
There is severe hum or noise.  
• Move the system away from the source of noise.
