The Sony MXD-D40 and MXD-D400 CD>MD decks have, in effect, 6 recording modes: SP, LP2, LP4 - each can be used copying CD>MD in Normal or High speed modes.

Normal SP is done in ATRAC Type R and I think hi-speed SP is in 4.5(?)

Normal speed LP2/4 copying is done in ATRAC3.

What I would like to know is what's used for HIGH speed copying in LP2/4.

I think I got an answer for this maybe a year or two ago, but if so I do not remember it.

Thanks!

I just did a search here and found that indeed I had asked a similar question before.

MDX-400 replied that:

"...As for any differences in ATRAC3 recordings (MDLP) at higher speeds, I don't know that there should be any difference as ATRAC3 is always encoded to the same standard, I believe. Any differences here in recording quality might point out to other shortcomings of the deck at highspeed,,,"

MDX-400 also confirmed that hi-speed SP on the MXD-D400 is in 4.5.
