Yamaha CRW-F1 manual CD-MRWCD Mt. Rainier ReWrite, CD-RWAudio Track edit mode, SafeBurn, Service

CD-MRW (CD Mt. Rainier ReWrite)

The CRW-F1 also includes the new industrial standard CD-MRW (CD Mount Rainier ReWrite) which will sooner or later replace the standard diskette drive altogether as the CD-MRW finally permits a CD-RW to be handled just like any other exchange medium.

The essential functions are:

-formating in the background

-CD ejection possible at all times

-logical 2K addressing when writing

-physical error management by the drive.

CD-RW Audio Track edit mode

The CD-RW is also gaining in popularity as a data carrier for audio data. YAMAHA has realised this feature exclusively included in the CRW-F1 to enable audio tracks recorded on CD-RWs to be edited without requiring the entire CD to be deleted. This permits individual audio tracks to be added to or deleted from the CD-RW – at up to 24x speed.

SafeBurn

YAMAHA has created a safety standard in the form of SafeBurn technology which represents a triple safety combination ensuring 100% safety and therefore the very best quality of your data when burning CD-R/RWs. SafeBurn comprises:

-Buffer underrun protection

For avoiding spoiled CD blanks when the data flow to the recorder is interrupted. The laser notes the last position imprinted and continues from there as soon as the data supply recommences from the source drive.

-8 MB buffer

Guarantees constant writing at high speed. The advantage of this generous buffer is the fact that the buffer underrun protection included in SafeBurn only acts in emergencies when the internal data flow to the recorder is interrupted.

-Optimum write speed control

This function permits the CRW-F1 series to automatically select the ideal speed for the CD blank inserted in the event of the medium being unsuitable for higher speeds.

The exemplary Yamaha service offers a 48-hour advance exchange, a two-year warranty and a competent, toll-free hotline.
