You cannot play back discs that do not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) specification, such as music discs utilizing copy-pro- tection technology.

Creating an audio CD

Using Disc At Once

This method lets you edit the length of the gaps between songs, or divide a single song into several tracks.

You can also use this type of a disc as a pressing master for mass production. Since the disc will be finalized when it is written, no further data can be written to it.

Maximum number of tracks 99

Pre-gap time [0–59 seconds/74 frames], default value 2 seconds *1

Post-gap time [0–59 seconds/74 frames], default value 0 seconds

Minimum track duration 4 seconds

*1 The pre-gap for track 1 is fixed at 0 seconds. The default pre-gap is 0 seconds for tracks that are divided by album CD track marks.

Using Track At Once

Use this method when you want to write one track at a time. You can continue writing additional tracks until you finalize the disc.

Finalize the disc if you want to play it back on a CD player.

Maximum number of tracks 99

Silence between songs 2 seconds

Minimum track duration 4 seconds

Files

Writing

You can write the following files from the D3200 to the inter- nal drive.

Backup files (data specific to the D3200)

WAV files

(16-bit/44.1 kHz, 16-bit/48 kHz, 24-bit/44.1 kHz, 24-bit/48 kHz; monaural and stereo are supported)

The characters that can be used in a file name are single- byte uppercase alphabetical characters “A”“Z”and numerals “1”“9,”and the underline character “_”.

When renaming a file, you cannot change the extension.

Backup files

The amount of space required for the backup is displayed when you make settings for the backup.

CD-R/RW drive

You can back up files across more than one disc if nec- essary.

You will need to provide the necessary number of discs for the backup. (The discs do not have to be blank.)

If the disc is not blank, it must have a certain amount of free space in order to be used for backup. If the disc does not have enough free space, an error message will appear.

PC (USB) drive

An error message will appear if the drive does not have enough free space.

Backup data filenames

The following names are automatically assigned accord- ing to the type of backup.

1Song

XXXXXX+ YY + extension (.DBK)

XXXXXX will be the first six characters of the song name, and YY will be a number in the range of 01–99 indicating the backup disc number.

If you are backing up a song named “New MySong” and this is the first disc of the backup, the default filename will be “NEW_MY01.DBK”.

If the song name contains a character that cannot be used in a filename, or a space, that portion will be replaced by an underline character “_”, and lowercase characters will be replaced by uppercase characters.
