TABLE OF CONTENTS
3 ABOUT CD-R/RW DISCS
Discs that Can Be Used with this Unit
Be sure to use discs that bear either of the following marks
when recording with this unit.
This unit uses CDs (optical digital audio discs)
which bear the mark located at the right.
Note that specially shaped CDs, for example,
heart shaped or hexagonal cannot be played. Do

1 FEATURES
1. Various copying functions
• This set is equipped with a number of convenient copying
modes: “Disc dubbing” for copying entire discs, “Make CD
dubbing” for copying an entire disc then automatically
finalizing, “1-track dubbing” for copying single tracks, and
“Scan record dubbing” for selecting the tracks you want to
record while scanning CDs and copying the selected tracks.
• One of two copying speeds can be selected: normal speed
and double speed.
2. Recording from external devices
• This set is equipped with three convenient synchronized
recording functions: “Disc synchro recording” for recording
an album on the source side, “Make CD recording” for
automatically finalizing after synchronized recording of a disc,
and “Track synchro recording” for recording track at a time. It
is also possible to record manually.
3. An abundance of playback functions
• Thanks to the combination of the CD and CD-R units, this set
is equipped with three different play modes: “Relay play” for
relay playback between the disc in the CD unit and the disc in
the CD-R unit, “Mix play” for programmed or random playback
of the disc in the CD unit and the disc in the CD-R unit as if
they were a single disc, and “Dual play” with which the CD
and CD-R units can be operated independently.
• This set is equipped with the programmed play, random play,
and all-track, 1-track and A-B repeat play modes.
4. Rich Variety of Digital Input Jacks
• In addition to the analog input jacks, this unit is equipped with
a total of two digital input jacks. There is one optical digital
input jack for use with digital sources such as CD, MD and
satellite broadcasts, and there is one digital coaxial input jack.
5. Equipped with Sampling Rate Converter
• This converter permits direct digital input recording from DAT
or satellite broadcasts (32 kHz, 48 kHz) which have sampling
frequencies that differ from that of the 44.1 kHz used with
CD.
6. Text Entry and Display Function
• The album title and the track title for individual tracks can be
entered and displayed for recorded CD-R/RW discs.
7. Equipped with ®, HDCD® (High Definition
Compatible Digital®) decoder (CD unit)
• During track selection, during search and when the recorder
sustains a strong impact, the disc’s rotational speed
changes greatly, causing a small noise to be emitted. This is
not a malfunction of the recorder.
• If the CD recorder is operated while an FM or AM broadcast
is being received, there may be noise in the FM or AM
reception. Please switch the power to the CD recorder off at
such times.
• The CDR-W1500 has a broad dynamic range. Please
exercise caution when turning up the volume on the
amplifier in cases when the playback volume is low. If the
volume is turned up too high, it could damage the speakers.
• Placing this recorder or its connection cords near a TV or
other audio device could cause a humming sound to be
emitted. If this occurs, relocate the recorder or reroute the
connection cords.
• Be sure to remove the disc from the recorder before moving
it. The disc could be damaged if left in the recorder while it
is being moved.
• Do not place any object in the tray in the position where the
disc is loaded, or open and close the tray with anything
inside. Foreign objects in the tray could damage the play
mechanism.
• Do not move the recorder from a cold place to a warm place
suddenly. If the recorder is cold when brought into a warm
room, condensation could form, preventing proper operation
of the recorder. If condensation does form on the recorder
when it is brought into a warm room, wait at least 30
minutes before use.

Methods of Recording to Disc
2 CD-R Discs
• CD-R discs incorporate a pigment layer for recording.
When exposed to the recording laser, a change in form
occurs at the boundary of this layer and the plastic layer
resulting in the recording of the signal. The recorded
information is maintained until the end of the life of the
disc.
• After recording, finalized discs can be played on ordinary
CD players.
2 CD-RW Discs
• CD-RW discs incorporate a phase change layer. The
recording process causes this layer to change from a
crystal (reflective) condition to an amorphous (non-
crystal) condition.
• Recorded information can be erased from CD-RW discs.
Deletion can take the form of deleting all of the disc
tracks or only the specified tracks working back from the
last track of the disc.
• Finalized CD-RW discs can be played on CD players
designed for use with CD-RW discs as well as on CD
recorders.
