Analog synchro recording

Use the analog line inputs when recording from your turntable, cassette deck, or other analog audio source.

Note that double speed recording is not possible in this mode.

1Make sure that any discs loaded in the CD changer are stopped.

2Load a CDÐR or CDÐRW disc.

If it’s a blank disc, the display shows NEW DISC.

If the disc isn’t blank, use the DISPLAY button to check that there's enough space on it for what you want to record.

3Press INPUT to choose the analog

line inputs.

Pressing INPUT repeatedly switches the active input:

ANALOG – OPTICAL – COAXIAL

The recorder's display indicates the current input.

4If you want to adjust the recording

level:

Start playing a sample of the source material, then turn the REC LEVEL knob to adjust the recording level (clockwise to increase or anticlockwise to reduce). Use the level meter to guage the the best recording level (the loudest sounds in the source should just reach 0dB on the meter; the red segments in the level meter should not light at all).

5Make sure that the source is not

playing, then press SYNCHRO.

Analog synchro recording will not work if the source is already playing!

Pressing SYNCHRO repeatedly switches the synchro mode:

•1-track synchro – recorder stops recording when it encounters more than 2 seconds of silence.

•all-track synchro – recorder starts a new track when it encounters another signal after more than 2 seconds of silence*. Recording stops when the recorder detects more than 5 seconds of continuous silence.

•all-track with finalize – as all-track synchro, but the recorder automatically finalizes the disc after recording. The SYNCRO indicator and SYNC(-1)will start to blink when the recorder is ready.

To cancel recording here, press 7.

6Play the source.

The recorder starts recording automatically.

Use the DISPLAY button to switch displays during recording.

7The recorder goes into record-pause

after recording.

Be careful: In all-track synchro mode, if the recorder detects another signal, recording starts again.

•If you're using all-track synchro with finalize, the recorder will start finalizing the disc after a minute of silence.

•Press 7to finish the recording before ejecting the disc.

*Track numbering may not work reliably for some sources (such as those which are very noisy, or those which contain pauses or very quiet sections).
