Your Walkman goes into standby for recording.

You can also record FM radio by pressing the REC/STOP button.
Press the REC/STOP button. Rotate the shuttle switch to select [OK], and then press the button to confirm.

Press the REC/STOP button.

Recording starts.

To pause recording, press the button. Press it again to resume recording.

Press the REC/STOP button again to stop recording.

The recording is saved as a file named [FRnnnn] (*1) in the [Record] - [FM] folder.

(*1) File names are automatically assigned from [FR0001] to [FR9999].

Hint

Recording in poor reception areas may result in noise. Record in a strong reception area.

The programs and sound files recorded with your Walkman can be played back on the Walkman [Details] or on a computer.

Note

If you rename files of the [Record] folder on your computer, or put files which have been imported to your computer back into the [Record] folder, you may not be able to play them on your Walkman.

You cannot change the bit rate for recording FM programs. Only [High] is available.
