My favorite deck is the Sony MDS-JE640. It has sp and lp mode and one can set a track marker by just pressing the jogdial while listening to an md. The deck then goes into rehersal mode, which lets you adjust the trackmarker, before it is finally set. With newer decks, at least with the MDS-JE780, one has to use the menu to set a trackmark, while playing an md. The 640 isn't manufactured anymore, I got mine via Ebay. It has a mechanical timer switch, with which one can start a recording, when an external timer is used.
