be according to the Orange Book specification and therefore compatible with the CDR510.

In practice however, the quality of the recording depends on the match between the disc used and the writing strategy of the recorder. At 1X speed (stand alone audio) the match between disc and recorder is important. Higher recording speeds are less critical in terms of recording quality.

Consumer CD Recorders can only record on CDR Audio discs and those discs are optimized for single speed automatically. Professional CD Recorders can use both Audio and Data discs. When using Data discs, one should take care to use discs with a good single speed compatibility.

Recording Capacity:

Discs with higher capacity than 80 minutes are out of the Orange Book standard and may perform below your expectations.

Compact disc care

Handle discs carefully so as not to damage or scratch the record side.

Avoid placing discs in the following locations:

•In direct sunlight or near a source of heat such as a heater.

•In a place that is damp or dirty.

•In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as near a window.
