You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own CDs.
Nevertheless, it is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first
try.
• If the disc is a CDRW and is already finalized, you must
unfinalize it first.
• The recording procedure is the same for CDRs and CDRWs.
• If the disc already contains recordings, the CD recorder will
automatically search for the end of the last track, so that
recording can start from there.
• There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left on
the disc, otherwise you will not be able to enter record
standby mode.
DISC FULL will then show on the display.
• If the display indicates
COPY PROTECT no digital
recording can be made of the source material. Recording
will not start.
• The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) only
allows digital recording under specific conditions:
- This means that it is not possible to make a digital copy
from a digital copy.
- Analog recording is always possible !
- The number of recordings to be made from the original is
unlimited.
• A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc.
Minimum allowable track length is 4 seconds.
• Recordings from DAT or DCC players will not always stop
automatically.
Important:
If you want to play the recorded CDR disc on a regular
CD player, it must be finalized. See finalizing discs.
Finalized CDRW discs play only on CDRW compatible
CD players.
For recording from CD changers do not use
