4 Getting started
Setting the
analog
recording level
Compared to analog tape, the
distortion that you get from
overloading a CD is much less
tolerable, and something you’ll
definitely want to avoid.
What you want to aim for is a
level where the loudest sound
from your source material is
recorded onto the CD at a level
just below the point where it
overloads (where it produces an
unpleasant, buzzy distortion).
1 Press INPUT SELECTOR to
choose the analog input.
Pressing INPUT SELECTOR
repeatedly switches the active
input:
Analog - Optical - Coaxial
The recorder’s display indicates
the current input.
2 Make sure the recorder is
stopped, then press
RECORD
¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ( ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ REC on the
remote control).
The recorder goes into record-
pause. (You can also press
MONITOR .)
3 Start playing the source.
4 Adjust the recording level
using the ANALOG REC
LEVEL control.
Don’t let the recording level to
reach the red OVER indicator!
50 32 18 12 6 2 0 OVER
The maximum recording level
should be in this area.
When you’re happy with the
recording level, stop the source.
