I have a MDS-JE470 and cannot for the life of me get the Auto Space feature to work !!. I am recording from the MD to my PC and the software "looks" for gaps of 2 seconds and splits the recorded tracks automatically - great ! - apart from the fact that i cannot get the MiniDisc deck to pause for a short while after each song !!. My MDS-JB930 does it !! - it's called "A-Space" on that particular machine. However, on my JE470 the only settings i can see are TMark, LS(T), S Space (which IS on !), P Hold (which IS on !), F.in, F.out, Sleep and LP Stamp.

Now S Space (which i thought would have been the correct setting) is ON yet it doesn't put any spaces inbetween the tracks. P Hold is also ON yet there are no pauses between tracks !! - very strange. Am i missing something here ???

Kind Regards,

Andrew

S-Space = Smart Space. if there is a long legnth of silence when you are recording with the digital/optical input; that is 4 to 30 seconds long (the space); it will cut the space to 3 seconds.

try turning that off; because it saves the setting when you turn the unit on and off.

"Maybe" that is stopping your automatic spaces to activate; only a thought; only my opinion. i could be wrong; i could be right; i have a right to party and flight.

you can do what i did once on a deck that didn't have the A-Space.

i had approx 20 songs on the MD disc; so i recorded 19 tracks about 3 seconds long; of nothing/space/silence; then used the "Move" function to incert them between the songs; and then play them into your pc; // will it work?

or; as i think of it now; just record ONE track of 3 second silence; and use the "Program" mode; then just keep on putting the silent track between the songs.

maybe i just should go back to bed; i've been up all nite on this stupid project for my little piano student!
