AUTO TRACK

AUTO TRACK can be either ON or OFF.

AUTO TRACK OFF

When AUTO TRACK is OFF only manual tracks are recorded by pressing and releasing the TR. INCR button on the IR remote, incrementing the track via the RC-5 signal, or RS-232C control, or by pressing and releasing the Record button on the CDR510 or the REC button on the IR remote.

Track information in the audio source such as a CD being dubbed is not recorded.

AUTO TRACK ON

When AUTO TRACK is ON and you are record- ing from a digital source with user data (track information from a source with a SPDIF connec- tion) the track information is recorded.

When AUTO TRACK is ON and the digital source does not include track ids, the CDR510 will use a silence gap to mark a track.

A track can also be incremented by pressing and releasing the TR. INCR button on the IR remote, incrementing the track via the RC-5 signal, or RS-232C control, or by pressing and releasing the Record button on the CDR510 or the REC button on the IR remote. See table on page 32.
