Copy protection

All pre-recorded audio CDs include a digital mark indicating the copy protection status of the disc. This information is stored in the user data area of the disc and is transmitted in the SPDIF format digital output.

Since the CDR500 is a professional CD recorder, it will record from any digital source, ignoring the copy protection setting of the source material. Addtionally, the CDR500 allows you to set the level of copy protection of each disc you record.

There are three settings for the copy protection on a disc:

Copy Protection OFF

This recording allows unlimted digital copying. A con- sumer digital recording device can digitally record this disc.

Copy Protection ON

This recording allows a single generation digital copy to be made for personal use. A consumer digital recording device will be able to digitally record this disc but the copy will have Copy Protection set to HCO so that fur- ther digital copies can not be made.

Copy Protection HCO (Home Copy protected Original)

This recording does not allow digital copying. A con- sumer digital recording device will not be able to make digital copies of this disc.
