Chapter 3: Recording CDs

Recording and Dubbing Reminders

Digital / Optical Recording

After digital recording (Dubbing, Make CD or recording from an external CD player) is complete, and the copied CD is finalized, it will contain copy protection information on the disc. COPY PROTECT appears when the finalized CD is inserted into tray A.

When using an external source CD player to make recordings, copy protected CDs can only be recorded through the analog output and inputs. When attempting a digital recording by using CD SYNC or REC, COPY PROTECT appears and output is heard but recording doesn’t start.

When dubbing or using MAKE CD to copy a copy protected CD, the recorder will only record at normal speed. Even when selecting 2x dubbing, the recorder will change automatically to 1x dubbing. COPY PROTECT appears.

CD Disc Dubbing

When finishing a recording, the table of contents (TOC) will be longer compared to the original CD’s TOC. This is because the CD recorder also includes the time between tracks.

If a CD-R audio only disc is inserted in tray B and is not blank or finalized, NOT BLK DISC appears.

If copy protection information is found on the disc, the unit will select an analog dubbing mode.
