Explanations

About the DSP TYPE-S for ATRAC/ATRAC3
This recorder supports playback with the DSP TYPE-S specification for high-level MiniDisc decks equipped with digital signal processors (DSP). This specification allows tracks recorded in MDLP mode to be played back with high quality sound. Since this recorder also supports DSP TYPE-R specification, superb sound is produced during playback in SP (normal stereo) mode as well.
Suppressing the skips of the sound (EASS GP)
The EASS GP function was developed to provide a higher level of shock resistance than that of existing players.

Playlist

Checking out audio files to the Net MD
This section explains how to check out all audio files in a playlist*.
A playlist is a container that allows the stored audio files in the Music Drive to be classified by genre, artist, etc.
Check-outs should be done at a temperature of +5 C (+41 F) or higher.
to display the recording navigation window.
Select (Music Drive) for [1 Music Source] and (Device/Media) for [2 Destination], then click 3 ([Jump to Record Window]).
Click in the middle of the display and select the recording mode (page 48).
Standard transfer mode: Data are transferred in the format of the original files. Maximum available transfer space: All data are transferred in LP4 mode. SP transfer mode: All data are converted and transferred in normal stereo mode. Select this mode if you listen to checked-out data on equipment that does not support MDLP mode.
A playlist appears in the display.
Confirm that the audio files you are about to check out are okay for checking out.

The music notations beside the track number in the left panel of the list represent the number of times the file can be checked out (e.g. = the track can be checked out three more times). If appears beside the track number, the file cannot be checked out.

[Check-Out All].

Checking out of the files starts. All files in the playlist are checked out to the connected Net MD.
To cancel a check-out Click ([Stop]).
Make sure not to disconnect the dedicated USB cable or power source until the operation has completed once the check-out (or check-in) operation has begun. Failure to do this may result in the loss of check-out authorization. Even if a check-out fails, the audio file may be considered checked out on the SonicStage side and the files check-out authorization may be reduced. Make sure not to bump the Net MD after check-out has started. If you do, the contents of the recording may not be stored correctly. Due to the limitations of the MD system, you may not be able to record the full amount of remaining recording time. Due to the limitations of the MD system, a maximum of about 1,700 characters can be stored for disc name, group names and track names on the disc. Take note of this fact when checking out a large number of tracks.

Listening to an MD

You can listen to an MD on the Net MD while it is connected to your computer. When disconnected from your computer, the Net MD can be used as an ordinary MiniDisc device. For details on Net MD operations, refer to the Recorder Operations section.
Listening to an MD with the Net MD connected to the computer
If you listen to an MD with the Net MD connected to the computer, be sure to listen with the Net MD itself (connecting to the headphones/earphones, speakers, etc.). The MD sound cannot be heard from headphones/earphones that are connected to the computer.
Listening to an MD with the Net MD disconnected from the computer
Listen to the MD after disconnecting the dedicated USB cable from the computer and the Net MD.
Generally, you cannot erase or divide/combine checked-out audio files. If you want to edit such files, check them back in first. Checked-out files can be edited on some MD devices; however, erasing a track will decrease the number of times the file can be checked out, and dividing or combining tracks will render the file impossible to check back into the computer (page 66).

MP3 MP3, which stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer3, is a standard for audio file compression determined by the Motion Picture Experts Group, an ISO (International Organization for Standardization) working group. It enables compression of audio files to about 1/10 of the data size of a standard compact disc. Since the MP3 encoding algorithm is disclosed, there are various encoders/decoders that are compliant with this standard, including freeware that is available for no charge. The MP3 standard is therefore widely used in the computer field. Music Drive Music Drive is a music database for managing audio data on a computer. In Music Drive, audio files can be managed along with such information as artist names, track names, and CD jacket images, or can be combined and categorized in different playlists. OpenMG Copyright protection technology for the import and management of musical content from distribution services or CDs. By using software that are compliant with OpenMG, audio contents can be encrypted before storage on a hard disk drive to allow playback of those audio files on that computer. OpenMG also prevents the unauthorized distribution of the contents via the Internet or other networks.
Playlist A playlist is like a container that can be used to hold and categorize files stored in Music Drive. For example, by making a jazz playlist and then putting your favorite jazz tracks into the playlist, you can play all of the tracks repeatedly or check them all out at the same time. Recording mode (Bit rate) This is a measure of data volume per second. The rate is expressed in bps (bits per second). In SonicStage, the bit rate can be selected for recording an audio CD or converting MP3 and WAV format audio files into ATRAC3 format from among three rates: 132 kbps, 105 kbps or 66 kbps. In the case of 105 kbps, 105,000 bits of information is processed per second. If the bit rate is large, that means a large amount of information is used to play the music. Thus, 105 kbps data produces better sound quality than 66 kbps data, and 132 kbps data provides better sound quality than 105 kbps data. However, audio files in formats such as MP3 have different encoding methods, and so the sound quality is not determined by the bit rate alone. SDMI SDMI, which stands for Secure Digital Music Initiative, is a forum that consists of over 130 companies in the fields of recorded audio content, computers, and consumer electronics. It is dedicated to the development of integrated copyright protection technology that can be used worldwide. SDMI is working to create a framework for preventing the improper usage of audio files and to promote legal music distribution services. The copyright protection technology OpenMG is based on the SDMI standard. Windows Media Technology (WMT) This is a technology that includes a contents management system called Windows Media Rights Manager which encrypts contents and distributes music contents along with their conditions for usage, distribution, etc. Copyright-protected audio files supported by Windows Media Technology (WMT) cannot be converted to the ATRAC3 format and coded in the OpenMG format. Windows Media Audio (WMA) This is an audio compression technology that includes the management system called Windows Media Rights Manager.
