Remarks about recording

You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own CDs. Nevertheless, we recommend that you use a CD-RW disc for your first try. The three ways to make recordings are described below:

-Digital unsynchronized

-Digital synchronized

-Analogue

•The recording procedure is the same for CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

•If the disc is a CD-RW and is already finalized you must unfinalize it first (page 15).

•If the disc already contains recordings, the CD recorder will automatically search for the end of the last track, so that you can start recording from there.

•There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left on the disc, or you will not be able to activate the record standby mode.

•If the display indicates COPY PROHIBIT, no digital recording can be made of the source material. Recording will not start or will stop after 4 seconds.

•The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) only allows digital recording under specific conditions:

-It is not possible to make a digital copy from a digital copy.

-Analogue recording is always possible!

-The number of recordings from the original is unlimited.

•A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc. The minimum allowable track length is 4 seconds.

•Digital recordings can be made from CDs (or other sources with an output Sample Frequency of 44.1 kHz +/- 100 ppm) via the digital input.

Important:

If you want to play the recorded CD-R disc on a regular CD player, it must be finalized first. See finalizing discs (p.15).

Finalized CD-RW discs play only on CD-RW compatible CD players.
