Making an audio CD
The following procedure describes how to record mastered songs (using the internal mastering function) to a
CD-RW/CD-R disc to make an audio CD (CD-DA format).
The “Save PGM” menu in the Setup mode, which is used for saving song data, is also used for making an audio
CD.
<Basic information>
When making an audio CD using the VF80, internal
mastering materials on the current drive are recorded
to a CD-RW/CD-R disc (by the CD-DA format).
You can record not only a single song but also mul-
tiple songs continuously.
When recording more that one songs continuously,
the VF80 automatically inserts a 2-second silent space
between songs.
VF80
CD-RW/CD-R disc
After turning on the power of the VF80, load a non-
recorded disc to the CD-RW drive.
Press the [SETUP] key to enter the Setup mode.
Use the [JOG] dial to select (highlight) the “Save PGM”
menu and press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The display shows the screen for selecting the device
to which the data is saved. “IDE” flashes.
<Note>
Key operations of the VF80 should be done after
completing access to a CD-RW/CD-R disc.
Press the [ENTER/YES] key while “SCSI” flashes.
After showing the model name of the connected CD-
RW drive, the display shows the screen for selecting
the save mode, in which “BkUp” flashes.
To carry out making an audio CD, select “CD-DA”.
If you need to change the copy protection setting (the
default setting is “OFF”), select “Setup” (for setting
writing conditions). If you make an audio CD without
changing the copy protection setting, skip steps 5 and
6 below and go to step 7.
Flashing
Use the [JOG] dial (or the [CURSOR] / key) to
select “Setup” and press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The display shows the “CD-DA Setup” screen, on which
you can select the copy protection setting (see the next
page).

<Note>
If an audio CD is made using a CD-RW disc, it can be
played back only by a player that supports CD-RW
playback. You cannot playback such a disc by a con-
ventional CD player that does not support CD-RW play-
back.
