Pioneer DEH-P900HDD Recording from the built-in CD, Digital and analog recording, Bit rate

Digital and analog recording

This product is intended for digital recording from the built-in CD player to the music server. Recording from sources other than the built-in CD, such as multi-CD or AUX, will be recorded in analog. While digital recordings can be made with less loss of quality, we recommend record- ing from the built-in CD.

•It is not possible to digitally copy music to the music server if it was digitally recorded from CDs (such as CD-R).

This is set by SCMS, the Serial Copying Management System, which has been devel- oped to prevent serial copies (copies of copies). (See page 84.)

•Analog recordings are stopped automatically after two hours. To continue recording to the same playlist file, press REC and restart the recording.

Bit rate

The bit rate can be selected for each recording. This alters the sound quality and recording time. (See page 34.)

Recording range

The range of recording from the built-in CD or multi-CD player is selectable. (See page 34.)

Recording from the built-in CD

Recording from CD-ROM is not possible. Not all recordings may be made from CD-R, CD-RW and other formats for reasons of copyright pro- tection. (SCMS) (See page 84.)
