Remarks about recording

If the disc is a CD-RW and is already finalized you must unfinalize it first to record onto it.

The recording procedure is the same for CD-Rs and CD- RWs.

If the disc already contains recordings, the CD-Recorder will automatically search for the end of the last track, so that re- cording can start from there.

There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left

on the disc, otherwise you will not be able to enter record

standby mode.

A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc. Minimum allowable track length is 4 seconds.

SRC (Sample Rate Conversion)

This CD-Recorder can perform Sample Rate Conversion on the incoming signal, it is capable of handling sources ranging from 11 kHz up to 56 kHz.

If no 44.1 kHz (± 100 PPM) source is connected, this CD- Recorder will automatically switch on the SRC.

If the source is 44.1kHz (± 100PPM) the SRC will be auto- matically bypassed.

See page 19 for information about the recording menu set- tings.

If you want to play a recorded CD-R disc on any regular CD player, it must first be finalized. (See FINALIZING/ UNFINALIZING.)
