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.
