Increase rigidity
The electrical circuits are protected by a
body made of 1 mm thick pure titanium. By
means of a pressing process called
“drawing,” titanium is shaped into a box to
achieve a body rigidity that cannot be
obtained through bending or using pressed
aluminum. The use of drawn titanium
minimizes resonance, which tends to occur
when the body comes into contact with
acoustic energy.
The surface of pure titanium material
undergoes a process that increases the
hardness of the material. The surface is then
covered with ion plating (a nitrate titanium
coating that is resistant to scratches). The
finished titanium surface is approximately ten
times as hard as that of alumite treated
aluminum.
The distinctive arch-shaped frame
(microphone guard) protects the built-in
microphone units against impact damage
when dropped. Exhaustive tests were carried
Front/back panels
(1 mm thick pressed titanium)
out seeking a form and material that were
rugged enough without obstructing sound.
The final choice: stainless steel rods
(SUS316), 3 mm in diameter, bent into the
shape of the frame and hand polished by
skilled craftsmen.
The rugged exterior produced in this way
protects the circuits and microphones and
enhances the high recording quality of
PCM-D1.

Maintenance
On noise
• Noise may be heard when the recorder is
placed near an AC power source, a
fluorescent lamp or a mobile phone during
recording or playback.
• Noise may be recorded when an object,
such as your finger, etc., rubs or scratches
the recorder during recording.
On safety
Do not operate the recorder while driving,
cycling or operating any motorized vehicle.
On handling
• Do not subject the recorder to strong
shock or vibration. Doing so may cause a
malfunction of the recorder.
• Do not place the recorder in the following
locations:
– Anywhere extremely hot. Never exposed
it to temperatures above 60ºC.
– Under direct sunlight or close to heaters
– In a sun-heated car with windows closed
(especially in summer)
– Humid place, such as in a bathroom

On the built-in microphones
The built-in microphones are
high-performance electret condenser
microphones. Do not expose them to strong
wind or water.
On maintenance
When the exterior is dirty, clean the surface
gently with a soft cloth slightly moistened in
water, and then wipe it again with a dry
cloth. Do not use alcohol, benzene, or
thinner, etc., to avoid damaging the finish.

Symptom Cause/Solution
You cannot erase a
track.
•
The write-protect switch on the inserted “Memory Stick PRO (High Speed)”
is set to “LOCK.” Release the lock.
•
When you use a Windows computer, the track or the folder containing the
track is set to “Read-only” in the computer. Display the track or the folder
using Windows Explorer and remove the check for “Read-only” under
“Properties.”
•
When you use a Mac computer, the track or the folder containing the track
is set to “Locked” in the computer. Display the track or the folder on Mac
Desktop and remove the check for “Locked” under “GetInfo” of “File.”
•
The remaining battery power is insufficient. Connect the AC power adaptor
to the recorder (page 20), charge the batteries, or replace them with new
ones (page 19).
Noise is heard.
•
An object, such as your finger, etc., accidentally rubbed or scratched the
recorder during recording so that noise was recorded.
•
Noise may occur if many low volume files are recorded in the current
memory. Save the tracks to the hard disk of your computer (page 30), and
then format the memory (page 36).
•
The recorder was placed near an AC power source, a fluorescent lamp or a
mobile phone during recording or playback.
•
Noise may occur if the plug of the connected external microphone was
dirty when recording. Clean the plug.
•
Noise may occur if the plug of the connected headphones/earphones is
dirty during playback or monitoring the recording sound. Clean the plug.
The sound picked up is
distorted.
•
The MIC/LINE IN switch is in the wrong position. Set it to the position that
corresponds to the sound source and connections (page 15).
•
The recording level is too high. Adjust the recording level to an appropriate
range (page 24).
•
The sound source is too loud when recording with an external microphone.
Set the MIC ATT switch to the “20” position (page 23), or move the
microphone away from the sound source.
•
The sound source has parts that are too loud. Set the “LIMITER” item to
“ON” in the menu display (page 35).
Noise occurs during
recording.
•
When monitoring the recording sound with headphones or earphones, they
are placed too close to the microphone. Decrease the sound level from
headphones or keep the microphone away from them.
“--h--m--s” is displayed
as the recorded date.
•
Set the clock (page 21). The date and time of recording are displayed after
the clock is set.
There are fewer menu
items in the menu
display.
•
Some menu items are not displayed during playback or recording (page
35).

!DDITIONAL¬)NFORMATION
Once you record audio in the built-in
memory or a “Memory Stick PRO (High
Speed),” the 10 folders for saving tracks are
automatically created in each memory. One
“.WAV” file is created for each recording.
For details about the folders and track file
structure, refer to page 32.
Notes about folder/track file
•
Because the folder names “FOLDER 01” to
“FOLDER 10” are fixed, do not change the
names on a computer. If changed, the
recorder cannot recognize the folders.
•
The number of folders is fixed at 10 for
each memory. If a folder is deleted on a
computer, a new folder is created in the
built-in memory or “Memory Stick PRO
(High Speed).”
•
The maximum number of tracks that can
be saved in one folder is 99 tracks.
•
The maximum data capacity that one WAV
format track can deal with is 2 GB. If the
data amount of one track exceeds 2 GB
during recording, recording as a new track
starts automatically. In this case, the
elapsed recording time display changes to
0 second, but the contents that have been
recorded up to 2 GB are stored normally.
File specifications
•
If recording is stopped right after starting
recording, one track is created.
•
If you use 8 or fewer alphanumeric
characters in lower case for a file name,
the characters are displayed in upper case
on the recorder. If you use 9 letters or
more, they are displayed in lower case.
