FADER button. The CDR-882’s FADER function allows
playback or recording to start or end with a smooth fade-in
or fade-out as appropriate. The fade-in and fade-out times

See page 29 for more details.
The actual operation of the FADER function will depend on

keyboard for CD Text data entry.

in the Audio submenu. Headphones with a minimum
impedance of 32Ω should be used.

will be selected as the active drive automatically.)
