DISPLAY button. This button changes the time display
option for the selected drive. The options available will
depend on the drive’s current Status (e.g. STOP, PLAY,
etc.). See page 22 for full details.
ID AUTO/MAN | AUTO-CUE button. This button has
two distinct functions, depending whether a disc is being
recorded or not:
a) Auto/manual Track ID selection: Switches between
automatic and manual track numbering when recording a
disc. See page 13 for more information.
b) Auto-Cue mode selection: Allows selection of Auto-Cue
and Auto-Pause modes when not recording. See page 46
for more information.
ID WRITE | CUE button. This button also has two distinct
functions, depending whether a disc is being recorded or
not:
a) ID Write: Pressing this button during RECORD, when
TRACK ID MANUAL mode has been selected with
[21] above, writes a track ID to the CD in the selected
drive(s).
As an ID is written, ID Write illuminates briefly in the
bottom left-hand corner of the display, and the track
number in the time display increments by one.
b) Cue button: When the CDR-882 is not in RECORD
mode, the button acts as a CUE button. Pressing CUE
will immediately locate to a previously-stored MARK point
(see page 13), entering PLAY mode at the cue point.
If AUTO-CUE or AUTO-PAUSE mode is active, or if the
drive is already in PAUSE mode, the drive enters PAUSE
at the cue point. When a MARK point is stored, drive
number is included, thus CUE can be used to locate to a
point on the other drive if wished. See page 46 for more
information.
DISC COPY button. This selects the CDR-882’s DISC
COPY function, which allows the user to make a copy of an
existing CD, CD-R or CD-RW from one drive to the other at
high-speed (with certain restrictions). A full description of
the DISC COPY function can be found at page 41.
PROGRAM button. The PROGRAM function, activated by
pressing PROGRAM, is used for two different purposes:
a) PROGRAM PLAY mode - permits tracks to be replayed in
a non-sequential order
b) PROGRAM COPY mode - allows a copy to be made of a
CD, but with individually selected tracks, sequenced in
any order on the copy.
The PROGRAM functions are described in detail
at page 44 (PROGRAM PLAY mode) and page 44
(PROGRAM COPY mode).
MODE button. This button is used to define the basic
record/playback mode of the CDR-882 when both drives

DRIVE SELECT button. This button is used to select which
drive is currently being controlled by the CDR-882’s main
transport buttons and other front panel controls.
The “active” drive is indicated by inverse video in the main
display area. Additional indication is provided in the top
right-hand corner of the display by CD1 or CD2, and the
blue Drive Select LEDs (34).
PHONES SELECT button. This button selects which drive
is to be the source for the headphone monitor output [32].
Pressing the button scrolls between the three available
options, which are: Drive 1, Drive 2, or a mix of audio from
both Drive 1 and Drive 2. In the case of the last option,
the precise nature of the mix heard is determined by the
Phones Mix settings in the Audio sub-menu. See page 30
for further details.
The two green LEDs immediately above the button indicate
the option selected.
