About recording
Basic information
The CD recorder deck offers you 3 main functions:
–Recording from the internal CD player or from a selected external source
–Finalizing your CDR(W) discs and unfinalizing your CDRW discs
–Erasing a CDRW disc
The recording procedure is the same for CDR and CDRW discs. Make sure the CDR(W) is absolutely free of scratches and dust particles.
For recordings, the minimum track length is 4 seconds.You can record up to a maximum of 99 tracks on a disc. If the recording time left on the disc is less than 7 seconds, DISC FULL is displayed and you cannot enter the recording mode.
Copyright protection
The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) prevents the making of a digital copy from a digital copy.The system allows making a digital recording from the original, however, in some countries this may require the authorization of copyright holders.
When you try to record copy protected material from an external source, COPY PROTECT will be displayed. No digital recording is possible then.
It is not possible to copy an
Recording CD text
If the original CD has CD text, this text will be recorded automatically, provided that the CD text is not copy protected. In that case, recording of CD text will not be possible and TEXT PROTECT will be displayed.
What is finalizing?
Finalizing is a simple process that completes the recording of a CDR(W) necessary to:
–play a recorded CDR on a standard CD player,
–play a recorded CDRW on a CDRW compatible CD player and CD recorder,
–avoid unwanted recordings on a disc, or
–avoid accidental erasure of tracks on a CDRW.
CDRs are “locked” once they are finalized. No other tracks or CD text can be added.
CDRWs are also “locked” once they are finalized, but can be unfinalized to permit additional recording or erasure.
