5 Recording Features
Introduction
Recording CDs from the disc changer has several advantages over
recording from an external CD player.
• Double speed recording lets you record a disc in half the
regular time.
• Automatic spacing when individual tracks are recorded.
• Automatic SCMS copying makes sure that, whenever
possible, you'll get a digital copy. In the event of a disc
preventing digital copying with SCMS, the link beween the
changer and the CD-R automatically switches to analog.
Recording a CD
If you want to duplicate a CD exactly as it is, the easiest way is to
follow the steps in Quick CD recording on page 13. The instruc-
tions here give you a little more control over the recording you
make.
1 Load the CD you want to copy in to
the CD changer.
You can use any of the three disc trays in the changer.
2 Load a CD-R or CD-RW into the
CD-R tray.
If the disc isn't blank, make sure that there is enough space
on the disc for what you want to record (see Switching the
Display on pages 16–18 to check this).
3 Press REC MODE.
The display shows DISC REC.
If you want to switch the copying speed, do so here. The
default is 2x speed. See Changing the recording speed on
page 28 to change it.
4 If you want the disc finalized after
recording, press FINALIZE.
The FINALIZE indicator blinks.
Remember: Finalizing a CD-R fixes the tracks on the
disc—you can't record anything else on to the disc, but it
does become playable on most ordinary CD players.
5 Press the DISC (CD SELECT on the
front panel) button for the disc you
want to record.
If you want to adjust the recording level, do so here. The
default is 0dB. See Setting the recording level on page 28 to
adjust it.
6 Press CD
=CD-R START (front panel
only).
The recorder starts copying the disc. If FINALIZE is on, the
recorder will finalize the disc after copying it.
• If the button is blinking, there’s not enough space on the
disc for what you want to record. Press again to start
recording anyway, or press
7 to cancel.
