< feature of MD-ST880 >

1. Portable MD is the first. - 1 "Dolby NR headphone system"- Equipped with two
"Dolby NR headphone system" which simulates characteristic of distance etc. of both ears by size of reflection of sound from not only area of room but also characteristics such as floors and walls and men' earlobes and shoulders and head and is developed- Two was installed.

<The presence to which [it] listens with the speaker is achieved with the headphone >
The presence to which [it] listens with the speaker by decreasing 'Sound it in the head'sense which feels when the headphone is used can be achieved, and a natural, pleasant sound be enjoyed. The music reproduction is (*pittari*) of the mini-disc recorded in the MDLP mode for a long time.

<The sound of three types can choose >
The sound scene reproduction which suits one's taste can be enjoyed from three kinds of modes (STUDIO/LIVE/DOME) with a different combination of the size and the effect of the echo of the room.
STUDIO : Setting of small room. [It] gives in all music and a standard effect is given to the reproduction of the movie voice.
LIVE : Setting of room of the same size as STUDIO. [It] echoes more slightly than STUDIO, and the effect is given to the reproduction of music especially.
DOME : Setting of larger room than STUDIO. The effect is given to the concert music and the movie voice in a wide hall.

2. Longest in the world- The reproduction of one for long time of about 130 hours is achieved.
The reproduction was achieved for a long time by decreasing the system consumption electric power by a high-speed rotation of the disk besides the fifth reproduction generation of low consumption electric power type for the MDLP mode compression extension in 0.18ƒΚm process goods of the low consumption electric power by which DRAM and integration were achieved LSI was adopted by using the latest technology for LSI of ATRAC which was able to be called the heart of MD.
In using of the nickel hydrogen charge pond and one high capacity alkali AA dry battery, together, longests in the world in portable MD. - One can continuously be reproduced for long time of about 130 hours. Moreover, the reproduction of about 75 hours was achieved in about 44 hour reproduction and the high capacity alkali AA dry battery of one (1.5V) on one charge pond (Setting both LP4 mode/Dolby NR headphone system at NORMAL).

3. Portable MD is the first. - "Two-line display liquid crystal Nabis remote control 1" which sees easily and is comprehensible
The liquid crystal of two-line display is adopted in remote control, and information of the disk name (the first line), the truck name (the second line), the disk name (the first line), and time (the second line) can be displayed simultaneously. ¦3‘Information on the mini-disc can be confirmed in one glance.
*** The group name (the first line) and the truck name (the second line) can <(> be displayed simultaneously when the mini-disc to which the group is recorded is used. ¦3)
A special key for call & decision of the menu was adopted, and the easiness of the portable telephone sense to use was pursued.
The display can be easily confirmed because the backing light addition even by a dark point.

4. It is possible to reproduce from one mini-disc according to the group. *** "MDLP group mode" <-4> adoption
It is possible to reproduce by selecting the group of the favor from the mini-disc recorded by "MDLP group mode" according to the group. *** The stereo recording and the reproduction of 320 minute at most can be conveniently enjoyed <feature of possible MDLP> further the mini-disc of 80 minutes.

5. "MDLP3 color Nabis" where LED shines according to kind of recording mode
–{‘̏㕔‚ΜLED“_–ł̐F‚Ζ“_–Ε‰ρ”‚ōĐΆ’†‚Μ‹Θ‚ͺ‚Η‚Μ˜^‰Ήƒ‚[ƒh‚©ˆκ–Ϊ‚Ε; *** It is possible to confirm it (<tune of "Continuousness of blinking yellow/twice" and the LP4 mode> <"Orange/four time continuousness of blinking"> blink in the tune of "Continuousness of blinking green/once" and the LP2 mode in the tune recorded in the SP/monaural length time mode).; Moreover, three colors LED blink by various patterns according to the charge and the content of the operation, and the operation situation is produced fashionable.

6. *** It is easily <only putting> attached <the charge stand which can be charged>.
*** It is easily attached <the charge stand which can be charged> only by putting the main body in the portable telephone sense.
The accumulation of "Effect of the memory" generated on the nickel hydrogen charge pond is detected with the refreshing (electrical discharge) circuit built in the main body and the charge stand and [it] refreshes it automatically (electrical discharge). The addition charge in the state of the capacity's of the battery remaining can be done at ease.

7. Abundant reproduction functions such as convenient "Introduction reproduction" for the MDLP reproduction are installed.
The tune of the favor can be quickly retrieved from the disk recorded for a long time in the LP mode by "Introduction reproduction" function to reproduce each tune automatically by about five seconds. Additionally, a variegated, convenient reproduction function random to reproduce, random to repeat, all tunes to reproduce the repetition one can be had to be enjoyed.

8. MD headphone player of portable compact size
A portable compact size was achieved by using a super-thin picking up/a newly developed mechanism and the latest technology by arranging of a reduction in the miniaturization of the motor besides the adoption of the fifth reproduction generation of 0.18ƒΚm process goods which integrated with DRAM LSI and the number of parts and main parts efficient and consolidating.

9. High pitched sound quality design by which [it] sticks to quality of sound
The amplifier circuit adopts the +/- power supply audio circuit installed in the component etc.The high pitched sound quality can reproduce because there is no output capacitor which leads to the tone quality deterioration.
The (*anaroguatteneita*) circuit is used for the volume adjustment. The performance of DA converter and ATRAC can be drawn out full even by a small volume.
The high pitched sound quality in clearing with the expansion can be enjoyed by adopting 22 bit operation method in the part ATRAC where [it] compresses/the sound which becomes the nucleus of the tone quality of MD is extended.
X-BASS of a digital method can be adopted in the heavy bass reproduction, and a heavy bass with few noises with power be enjoyed.

10. The (*wantatchiijekt*) mechanism with an easy disk change is installed.
Because the lid opens and the disk comes out automatically if the opening button is done in the slide, the disk change can be smoothly done.

11. Strength in vibration from the outside, and "‰Ή”ς‚Ρ(unknown word) guard memory" of about maximum 160 second (LP4 o'clock)
Music can be pleasantly enjoyed without doing sound ”ς‚Ρ for about the maximum 160 seconds at the LP4 mode even if intermitted vibration is received by installing of 16 Mbits DRAM.

¦1 As of July 10, 2001
¦2 [It] develops jointly with the Lake technology company, and a virtual system (Dolby, a Dolby NR, and a double D sign are trademarks of (*dorubiiraboratoriiz*)) for the headphone with built-in LSI which the (*dorubiiraboratoriiz*) Co. recognized.
¦3 When mini-disc to which group name and disk name/truck name are input is used
¦4 When mini-disc to which group is set with recording machine which can do group setting is used
