(UN)FINALIZING, ERASING

English

Automatic track increment

In recording mode tracks will be incremented automatically such that the track numbers are positioned on the same position as the original.

To switch the automatic track increment function on, press as often as necessary TRACK INCR. on the remote control during stop when CDR is selected.

yAuto Tr ON is displayed and the function is switched on. Track increments are now automatically detected from digital source material. In analogue source material a silence of 2.7 seconds or more is detected as a track increment.

To switch the automatic track increment function off, press as often as necessary TRACK INCR. on the remote control during stop when CDR is selected.

yAuto Tr OFF is displayed and the function is switched off. Track numbers can now be incremented manually by pressing TRACK INCR. on the remote control during recording. The minimum track length is 4 seconds.

Notes: – Track numbers cannot be changed after recording.

The automatic track increment only works with consumer sources with a digital output signal according to the IEC 958 (consumer part) audio standard. DAT, DVD and DCC do not deliver this signal.

Finalizing CDR(W) discs

Finalizing a CDR(W) disc is a simple procedure, 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 further unwanted recordings on a disc, or

avoid erasure of tracks on a CDRW.

Notes: – Finalizing will take about 2–4 minutes.

After finalization of the CDR(W), CDR(W) changes to CD on the display.

During finalization no other operating commands can be executed.
