Creating CDs

Setting recording parameters

You can adjust the quality and speed of the recording process using the settings described in this section.

Use / // and SELECT to set the parameters. When you are finished, use / // to select “OK” and press SELECT. The changes you make are reflected in the MusicCAST server, and the on-screen display returns to the screen it was previously displaying. Select “Cancel” to return to the previously displayed screen without making any changes.

Setting recording speed

Select “x1” under the “Speed” heading to record at normal playback speed, and “Best effort” to record at the fastest speed possible under current conditions.

Setting the Recording auto level function

The MusicCAST server can automatically adjust recording levels (auto level). Place a check in the “level” checkbox to enable the auto level function, or remove it to disable the function.

NOTE

This function changes the volume of songs during recording. To retain the original volume of songs, disable this function by removing the check from the “Level” checkbox.

Making a high quality recording

Place a check in the “Audio Master” checkbox to enable the Advanced AudioMASTER™ function. Use this function to make high-quality CD recording.

The Advanced AudioMASTER™ function is only available when you are recording to a new CD-R.

The Advanced AudioMASTER™ function reduces the maximum amount of material the MusicCAST server can record to a CD. When using Advanced AudioMASTER™ to record a CD, 74 minute CD will hold 63 minutes worth of material, and 79 minute CD will hold 68 minutes of material.

Selecting a recording format

Select “Digital” under the “Type” heading to record in digital format, or “Analog” to record in analog format. If you select digital, and digital copying is possible, the MusicCAST makes a digital copy. If digital copying is not possible, the MusicCAST moves the material to the CD-R/CD-RW, and deletes it from its hard disk drive, in a digital move process.
