Transfer audio data between the computer and the player
Connecting the player to your computer
When you connect the dedicated USB cable directly to the USB connecting jack on the player, power (bus power) is supplied from the USB port of the computer. This allows the player to be used without power being supplied from the battery.
When using Windows 2000 Professional
Be sure the dedicated USB cable is disconnected before turning on or restarting the computer. If the dedicated USB cable is connected at this time, but then disconnected afterwards, the computer may not recognize the player the next time you connect the dedicated USB cable. When the computer does not recognize the player, disconnect the dedicated USB cable, restart the computer, and then reconnect the dedicated USB cable. When using Windows ME or Windows 98SE If you connect the player to the computer with the disc mode on the player set to Hi-MD (factory setting), and then insert a 60/74/80minute standard disc, the operation mode of the disc may automatically change to Hi-MD mode even if you do not record anything. When using Windows ME or Windows 98SE When you disconnect the dedicated USB cable, the message Unsafe Removal of Device appears in the computer display. This is not a problem. Merely click OK to make the message disappear.
The supplied SonicStage Ver. 2.0 software enables you to transfer audio data between the player and the computer. When a disc used in Hi-MD mode is inserted in the player, tracks recorded from a CD player to the player can be migrated to your computer.

It can also be potentially dangerous to play your player at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

On battery

Incorrect battery usage may lead to leakage of battery fluid or bursting battery. To prevent such accidents, observe the following precautions: Install the + and poles of the battery correctly. When the player is not to be used for a long time, be sure to remove the battery. If a battery leak should develop, carefully and thoroughly wipe away battery fluid from the battery compartment before inserting new ones.
Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using headphones/earphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use.

On mechanical noise

The player gives off mechanical noise while operating, which is caused by the power-saving system of the player and it is not a problem.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and to be considerate of the people around you.
On the MiniDisc cartridge
When carrying or storing the MiniDisc, keep

it in its case.

Do not break open the shutter. Do not place the cartridge where it will be

A USB hub is used. , Connect the dedicated USB cable directly to the USB port of the computer. Network communication has failed. , Disconnect the dedicated USB cable, wait at least 2 seconds, and then reconnect it.

The playing time of This is due to a calculation discrepancy between the recorder and the a transferred track is computer. different from the time that appears on your computer monitor. You cannot transfer tracks that will fill up the remaining recording time on the disc. The minimum recordable time on a disc is normally 2 seconds in stereo, 4 seconds in LP2 stereo mode, and 8 seconds in LP4 stereo mode. When you transfer a track from your computer, the player needs a 2-second (or 4- or 8-second) space for a track even if the track is under 2 seconds (or 4 or 8 seconds) in length. Also, the player inserts a 2-second (or 4 -or 8-second) space in between tracks during transfer operation. For this reason, the player needs an additional 6 seconds (or 12 or 24 seconds) for each track. This reduces the maximum recording time for each track by 6 seconds (or 12 or 24 seconds) during transfer operation (in MD mode only). The difference is due to the use of the binary system to indicate the disc size on the computer and the decimal system to express the disc size on the disc and other recording media. For details on the disc size, see page 37.
