Selecting Maximum as the Drive Speed will record your CDs at high speed. If you find this setting makes your DMS4 Digital Music Server too noisy, select Standard for quieter but slower operation.

Choose between Uncompressed WAV, Very High Quality MP3 (320k CBR), High Quality MP3 (192k VBR), Standard Quality MP3 (128k VBR), High Quality WMA (128k CBR) and Standard Quality WMA (96k CBR) as the Default Recording Quality used by both the TV and front panel user interfaces when recording a CD.

The Quick Record option allows you to specify if your DMS4 Digital Music Server displays the Recording Quality options each time a CD is recorded. By default this option is enabled. If you prefer to select the record quality each time you record a CD, change it to disabled.

With the Auto Record feature enabled, each time you insert a CD into the CD drive it will begin recording automatically. In addition, enable the Auto Record Eject function to have the CD automatically ejected when it has finished recording.
