Quick Start
Recording/Playing Back a Song

(1)

Preparing the Memory Card

The BR-900CD writes the recorded data directly to the
inserted memory card. Therefore, for recording or playback,
the memory card must be inserted.
“Memory Cards Supported by Your BR-900CD” (p. 16)
Inserting the memory card
Before inserting the memory card (CompactFlash), be sure to
first turn off the BR-900CD. If a memory card is inserted
when the power is turned on, the data in the memory card
may be destroyed, or the memory card may become
unusable.
1. Insert the memory card into the memory card slot.
The supplied memory card still has some remaining
space; however, for extended recording, you will need to
erase some of the demo song or prepare a new memory
card (64 MB or greater is recommended).
* The demo songs are protected.
To delete the demo songs, first remove the protections, then
carry out the deletion.
“Protecting a Song (Song Protect)” (p. 79)
“Erasing Songs (Song Erase)” (p. 77)

(2) Turning On the Power

Use the procedure described in “Turning On the Power” (p.
28).
Formatting the memory card
(Initialize)
* This is not necessary for memory cards that have already been
used with the BR-900CD.
Newly purchased memory cards, or memory cards that have
been used previously with a computer will need to be
prepared so they can be used with the BR-900CD.
Carry out the following steps in the order given to complete
the procedure (this preparation process is called
“Initializing”).
