Digital recording from DAT
If you’re recording a DAT tape that was recorded using the DAT machine's auto ID function, the IDs on the tape are slightly after the beginning of the actual recording. This can cause problems for the CD recorder:
•The start of the track may not be recorded.
•The track number will be recorded on the disc after the start of the track
•The beginning of the next track on the DAT is unintentionally recorded
9 Additional Information
To avoid these problems, we recommend recording start IDs on the DAT manually, if possible. Refer to the instructions for your DAT recorder for more information.

Digital signal interruptions
Sources of signal interruption include power or source component failure, accidental disconnection of the interconnect cord, and interruption of digital satellite broadcasts. In all these cases, if the signal resumes within about five seconds, the result will just be a blank section on the disc. If the interruption is longer than five seconds, the recorder displays the error message: D.IN UN- LOCK and recording is paused.
Power interruptions
Never switch off this recorder while it's copying, recording, finalizing, or while the display shows PMA REC (Program Memory Area Recording). If there's a power failure, or you accidently disconnect the power from the wall outlet while recording is in process, you'll lose at least part of the recording. After recording, always remove the disc from the recorder before switching the power off. Failure to do this could result in you losing some of the recorded material on the disc.
Miscellaneous information
•The minimum recordable time is four seconds. Even if you try and record something shorter than this, the track that the recorder creates will be four seconds.
