DISC DUBBING

1Load a blank or non-finalized CD-R/RW disc on the record tray After TOC and OPC process, total number of tracks and total time of all tracks will be displayed. “CD-R” or “CD-RW” will also light depending on the disc in the tray.

2Press SPEED repeatedly to select dubbing speed With each press of the button, the dubbing speed changes as shown on the left.

•The default dubbing speed is “real-time”. The recording takes as long as the actual running time of the disc.

•When no speed indicator lights, the unit is set to real-time recording.

•Note that the slower the record-dubbing speed, the more tolerant the unit is of errors on the blank disc. However, with most high-quality blank discs, the 2x and 4x speeds should not present a problem.

3Load the disc to be dubbed on the play tray After TOC process, total number of tracks and total time of all tracks will be displayed and CD will light.

4Press DUB on the remote control or DUBBING on the front panel, and wait until “01 00:00” is displayed When “DISC FULL” is displayed, there is not enough space on the disc. Use another disc.

5Press PLAY on the play deck or record deck Alternatively, press PLAY on the remote control.

The dubbing will stop automatically when the source disc has played through to the end. After the dubbing is finished, “BUSY” and “UPDATE” will be displayed briefly.

TO STOP A DUBBING OPERATION MANUALLY

Press STOP on the play deck or record deck.

Alternatively, press STOP on the remote control.

TO PLAY IN OTHER MACHINES

As with all recorded CD-R/RW discs, the disc must be finalized before it can be played in other machines. See page 20 for details.

CHANGING THE ORDER OF TRACKS TO BE DUBBED

Before starting the dubbing, program the tracks so that they will be played in the desired order. See page 24 for details.

•Dub containing programmed playback may only be made by real-time or 2x speed. If you attempt to make a programmed dubbing at 4x speed, the unit will automatically select the 2x speed.

NOTE

•Recording levels can be adjusted during digital recordings.

•It is possible to listen to the disc while it is being dubbed by selecting the appropriate input on your receiver, preamp or processor.

•Do not use high volume levels when listening to high-speed dubbings while they are in progress. It may cause malfunction.

•PAUSE does not operate while a dubbing is in progress.

•Tracks will be added automatically to mirror the track structure of the original disc.

•The total time indication of the recorded CD may vary slightly from the original due to variations in the spin speed of each drive. But no information has been lost in the recording process.

•If the original disc being dubbed is a digital copy or if it contains copy-prohibit signals, the unit will automatically make a copy with real-time speed in analog mode because of SCMS (see page 29).
