5 − CD playback & recording

Basically, the DV-RA1000HD works in the normal way as a CD player and in a very similar way to many CD recorder.

However, there are a number of features that may not be immediately obvious.

Functions marked with a DVD or HD indicator in this chapter are available for DVD or HD playback respec-

tively. Functions marked with a DVD±RW or HD are available for DVD±RW or HD recording respectively. DVD refers to both DVD±RW and DVD±R, and HD refers to the HD of DV-RA1000HD.

Certain functions are not available in DSD mode, and this is noted in the corresponding sections.

Playback

The following apply when the DV-RA1000HD is used to play back CD, CD-R or CD-RW discs. Many of these

features also apply to playback of DVD and HD record- ed on the DV-RA1000HD.

The transport keys enable you to play a disc as if you were using a standard CD player.

To start playback, press the PLAY key while the transport section is stopped or playback is paused.

To stop playback, press the STOP key.

To resume playback after the playback is paused, press the PLAY key.

To mute the playback signal (i.e., silent play- back), press the MUTE key. Press the MUTE key briefly to mute the signal. Press the

MUTE key again to unmute the signal. Press and hold the MUTE key to mute the signal until you release the key. Release the MUTE key to unmute the signal. While the signal is muted, the MUTE key indicator lights up.

To skip the tracks backward or forward, press the / keys.

Use the DISPLAY key on either the main unit or the RC-RA1000 remote control unit to cycle through track elapsed time, track remaining time, total elapsed time, and total remaining time (on playback).

While recording, track elapsed time and recording remaining time are the only options available.

In stopped mode, the choices are track elapsed time, track remaining time, total time, total remaining time (and recording remaining time on recordable discs).

Programmed playback DVD HD

To program the order of track playback, use the pro- gram list accessible from the Virtual Front Panel. (See “The virtual front panel (VFP)” on page 23.) The PGM key on the remote control unit can also be used to access this screen and turn programmed playback on and off.

The order of programmed playback is not stored when power is turned off.

When programmed playback is turned on, the screen shows a list of tracks which can be edited as follows:
