Preparations before using CDs with

When using CDs with this unit, please make the following
preparations.
Before using a CD, put the unit into • MULTITRACK
mode. If you press the CD button when in the mode
other than

screen before inserting or ejecting a CD.
NOTE
You can only unmount a CD from the CD and CD
PLAYER
screens. In order to prevent the sound of the CD
drive being operated from occurring during recording, for
example, the power to the drive is disabled when in any
other mode besides CD mode (when the CD screen or one
of its submenus is open). For this reason, it is necessary
to put the unit into CD mode in order to load or eject a
CD. After a CD has been mounted (the
CD MOUNTING
pop-up has appeared) return to the CD or CD PLAYER
screen to eject the CD.
Types of CDs that can be used with
this unit
This unit is compatible with 12-cm and 8-cm CD, CD-R,
CD-RW and CD-RW High Speed discs. CD-RW Ultra Speed
and CD-RW Ultra Speed+ CD-RW discs are not supported.

Writing to an already written CD-RW
With this unit, you do not need to erase a CD-RW
beforehand. You can use a previously written CD-RW by
erasing it at the beginning of the desired operation.
When creating an audio CD or backing up a song, the
following message will appear if you insert an already
written CD-RW disc.

out and replace the disc with another one.
CAUTION
If you use Track At Once to write a stereo master track
to an unfinalized CD-RW in audio CD format (a CD-RW
created using MASTER WRITE by selecting a single
stereo master track and setting
FINALIZE
to
OFF
), the
track will be added without showing the CD-RW erasure
warning, and it will not overwrite existing data on the
disc.
Loading and ejecting CDs
Put the CD into the disc tray on the right side of the unit.
1 In MULTITRACK mode, press the CD button to open
