If the source material is a CD, tracks will be added automatically to mirror the track structure of the original disc.

WHEN MAKING A DIGITAL RECORDING FROM A DVD PLAYER

From the DVD player, select “linear PCM” as audio output. Compressed digital signals, such as “DTS bit stream” or “Dolby Digital bit stream” cannot be used. Read and follow the manual attached to your DVD player about how to change the setting of audio output.

Some DVD discs contain copy-prohibit signals. In such cases you can copy the disc by using an analog input.

NOTE

You cannot start or resume recording from a halfway point.

When in CD sync record-standby mode and the source device is switched from pause to playback, this unit does not start recording, but remains in the standby mode.

If you switch the source device from playback to pause during CD sync recording, this unit stops recording and runs the update process.

It is possible to listen to the sound while recording by selecting the appropriate input on your receiver, preamp or processor.
