Many thanks to those who gave me advice on this. As a result of the
reassurance given here I purchased a 530 this weekend and it does exactly
what I want.
Thanks,
Ian

How then, do they know to take a commercial
Hi Ian
I have a Sony JE520, and I use it in the way you describe. I have an
industrial digital controller / timer, and I can use this to set loads of
on/off timings. When the 520 is switched to Record Timer mode, it will
automatically find the last track on the MD and start recording after
I guess it's obvious that a cassette would work in this way but I am not
clear that an MD necessarily would. The 530 is designed to work in
conjunction with a timer but does anyone know if it works in the same way?
It seems logical that it should but I suppose it could do something less

On my 520, there is a switch for the timer position. If youhave it in that
position, and you connect a timer, it will record when you aren't there. I
haven't really experimented with it. THe instructions are a little vague.
