Remarks about recording Recording modes

You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own CDs. Nevertheless, it is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first try. The following will be explained:

-Recording from an internal CD player deck: high-speed or listen mode.

-Recording from an external CD player deck: synchronized start with CD player or manual start (analog or digital).

•If the disc is a CDRW and is already finalized, you must unfinalize it first.

•The recording procedure is the same for CDRs and CDRWs.

•If the disc already contains recordings, the CD recorder will automatically search for the end of the last track, so that recording can start from there.

•CD text can be added to a recording in Stop mode and during recording.

•CD text cannot be recorded from an external CD player. (Text information is not available on the output of the CD player.)

•The CD recorder deck is able to record CD text from the internal CD player deck (if not subjected to copy protection). This may take up to 2 minutes.

•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. DOES NOT FIT will then show on the display.

•If the display indicates COPY PROTECT no digital recording can be made of the source material. Recording will not start.

•The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) only allows digital recording under specific conditions:

-This means that it is not possible to make a digital copy from a digital copy.

-Analog recording is always possible !

-The number of recordings to be made from the original is unlimited.

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

•Recordings from DAT or DCC players will not always stop automatically.

Important:

If you want to play the recorded CDR disc on a regular CD player, it must be finalized. See finalizing discs.

Finalized CDRW discs play only on CDRW compatible CD players.

For recording from CD changers always use REC EXT DISC.

Your recorder offers several recording modes.

For recording from internal CD-deck:

-RECORD FAST (high-speed digital recording) - fast recording of a disc or programmed tracks.

-REC LISTEN (normal-speed digital recording) - listening to a recording while making it.

-MAKE CD (high-speed digital recording and auto-finalize) - fast recording of a disc or programmed tracks. Recording will be finalized automatically.

Warning: No more recording possible after finalizing CDR disc!

REM REC	TIME TRACK	TOTAL REM	TRACK TIME	STEP
SYNC MANUAL		RECORD		PROG
DIGITAL I	CD	CHANGER	CD	SHUFFLE ALL

For recording from external sources:

-REC EXT DISC (automatic start of recording) - to make an automatic recording of an external source simply by starting the source.

-REC EXT MAN (manual start of recording) - to start a manual recording from an external source.

Some remarks on recording:

-During high speed recording, the original recording quality will be maintained.

-When Auto track is on (default setting), track numbers will automatically be increased during recording.

-By programming tracks first, a compilation can be recorded.

-If a finalized CD recordable disc is inserted in the CD recorder, FINALIZED CD will be displayed when REC TYPE is pressed. Recording will not be possible.

-If a finalized CD rewritable disc is inserted in the CD recorder, UNFINALIZE and PRESS ENTER will be displayed when the REC TYPE is pressed. If ENTER is pressed, the disc will be unfinalized.

Note: If during recording ANALOG REC appears, the track will be recorded as analog, at normal speed. All other tracks will be copied normally (at double speed).
