4 Getting started

Automatically recording and finalizing a disc

This is a variation on all-track synchro recording on the previous page. After all tracks on the source material have been recorded, the recorder automatically finalizes the disc.

You can also copy CD text digitally as long as: it has not been copy-protected by the manufacturer; the disc you want to copy is not in program-play mode; you use a

The display shows all-track sync with finalization, with the SYNC and FINALIZE indicators blinking to show that recording can start.

Note: If You want to record CD text information as well, press NAME after pressing SYNCHRO. The CD TEXT indicator will light.

5 After recording all tracks on the

source, the recorder starts

finalizing the disc.

After the recorder encounters about five

seconds of continuous silence, it assumes

the end of the source has been reached and

goes into all-sync record-pause.

Be careful: If the recorder detects

another signal or start ID (DAT or DCC) it

will start recording again!

If the recorder detects no signal for one

minute, finalization starts (no more

recording is possible after this so make

sure that there aren’t any spaces of more

than one minute during the source you’re

recording). See Automatically number-

ing tracks on page 33 to set the silence

threshold.

Finalization takes about two minutes,

during which time none of the buttons are

operative.

Never turn the power off during finaliza-

tion!

• If a digital signal is interrupted, the

recorder continues recording. However,
