In case of difficulty
The Mini Disc system has the features as summarized in the following.
1 Like CD (Compact Disc), playback can be started from any position. (Random access)
2 It uses a disc with a diameter of 64 mm that is accommodated in a cartridge.
3 Two types of discs can be used.
4 Up to 74 minutes of recording or playback is possible using high-efficiency coding technology.
5 Countermeasure against vibration is taken using semiconductor memory chip.
Recordable Mini Disc
There are two types of Mini Disc, the one designed exclusively for
playback and the other which is both recordable and playable.
This MD is a magneto-optical disc which can be recorded by magnetic
field modulation. To record signals, laser light is irradiated from the
bottom side of the magneto-optical disc and magnetic field is applied
from the upper side of it.
Sound-skip prevention memory
During playback, this unit always stores signals in memory temporarily
to prevent sound from being skipped in case of vibration. As a result,
even when the data from the optical pickup is interrupted due to
vibration, etc., the music will not be interrupted because the memory
holds the data for several seconds.

MD system
Two Mini Disc types
Playback-only Mini Disc
This type of MD can be used only for playback, and is used by the
commercially-available music MD software packages. The playback-only
MD is an optical disc like the Compact Disc (CD). The signals are recorded
as the presence or absence of small pits and read out by an optical, non-
contact pickup.
High-efficiency coding technology “ATRAC”
The Mini Disc has only a half the size of the Compact Disc but provides
the same recording time. This is made possible by ATRAC*, a newly
developed high-efficiency coding technology.
* ATRAC: Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding
The ATRAC compresses the music data to about 1/5 the amount of data
which would be obtained with conventional technology, by cutting off
the sound components which do not pose problem in audition even
when they are not present. This has made it possible to record or play up
to 74 minutes.
Digital memory

A small sound is not
