Maintenance To get the best performance of the unit, keep your discs, tapes and mechanism clean. Handling MDs General Notes • Do not open the shutter. - The shutter is locked so that it will not open. Trying to force it open will break the MD. If the shutter opens accidentally, close it again quickly without touching the MD inside. In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs, MDs and the mechanism clean. • Store CDs and MDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.
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. The MD recorder then decodes the signals and plays them back as music.
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) 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). 1st Generation ABCDEFG 2nd Generation ABCDEFG CD CD-R/RW HCMS (High-speed Copy Management System) Now onto recordable MDs (minidiscs), you can record (copy) sound at a recording speed exceeding the normal speed.
