Quick CD copying

Although the PDR-W739 has many advanced recording features, duplicating a CD is pretty much a one-touch operation. Before starting, make sure that the recorder is connected to your amplifer and that everything is plugged in to a power outlet.

For detailed information on other recording features, see chapters 5, 6, 8, and 9.

1Press the POWER button to switch

on.

The display lights up.

2Press OPEN/CLOSE 10 to eject the

3-CD changer disc tray.

Place the CD you want to copy, with the label face up, on to the disc tray, making sure that it is seated properly in the disc guide.

Note: Do not use an adapter with 8cm CD-singles. The disc tray has guides for both 12cm and 8cm discs.

3Press OPEN/CLOSE 10 to close the disc tray.

4Press OPEN/CLOSE 0 to eject the

CD-R disc tray.

Place a blank CD-R or CD-RW disc, with the label/non- recording side face up, on to the disc tray. Again, make certain that it is seated correctly in the disc guide.

Be careful when handling CD-R and CD-RW discs not to leave fingerprints on the recording surface.

5Press OPEN/CLOSE 0 to close the

disc tray.

The recorder reads the disc to see what you've loaded. After a few seconds it should tell you that you’ve loaded a

NEW DISC.

6Press COPY START CD=CD-R.

The recorder automatically copies at double speed, so if you're listening to the recording as it's being made it will sound a little strange!

After the CD in the changer has finished playing, the recorder will finalize the CD-R to make it playable on most ordinary CD players (for more information on this process, turn to page 8). This process takes just a few minutes after the CD has been copied.

Remove the disc from the recorder before switching off.
