You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own CDs.
Nevertheless, we recommend that you use a CD-RW disc for
your first try. The three ways to make recordings are
described below:
- Digital unsynchronized
- Digital synchronized
- Analogue
• The recording procedure is the same for CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• If the disc is a CD-RW and is already finalized you must
unfinalize it first (page 15).
• If the disc already contains recordings, the CD recorder will
automatically search for the end of the last track, so that
you can start recording from there.
• There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left on
the disc, or you will not be able to activate the record
standby mode.
• If the display indicates COPY PROHIBIT , no digital recording
can be made of the source material. Recording will not
start or will stop after 4 seconds.
• The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) only
allows digital recording under specific conditions:
- It is not possible to make a digital copy from a digital
copy.
- Analogue recording is always possible!
- The number of recordings from the original is unlimited.
• A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc. The
minimum allowable track length is 4 seconds.
• Digital recordings can be made from CDs (or other sources
with an output Sample Frequency of 44.1 kHz +/- 100 ppm)
via the digital input.
Important:
If you want to play the recorded CD-R disc on a regular
CD player, it must be finalized first. See finalizing discs
(p.15).
Finalized CD-RW discs play only on CD-RW compatible
CD players.
Preparing for digital recording
1 Make sure the disc is absolutely free of scratches and dust
particles.
2 Press Source repeatedly until (depending on the digital
connection used):
➜
DIG COAXIAL or DIG OPTICAL appears on the
display.
3 Press AUTO/MANUAL to switch between auto and manual
track numbering.
➜ If AUTO is selected, (preferred)
AUTO TRACK will appear
on the display.
• AUTO: The track increments are automatically copied from
the digital source material.
• MANUAL: Track numbers can be incremented manually by
pressing §. (minimum track length is 4
seconds).
(This can also be done in AUTO mode).
• Track numbers cannot be changed after recording.
Note: AUTO TRACK works only with Consumer Sources with a
digital output signal according to the IEC 958 (consumer
part) audio standard.
