This unit uses CDs (optical digital audio discs) which bear the mark located at the right. Note that specially shaped CDs, for example, heart shaped or hexagonal cannot be played. Do not attempt to use such CDs since doing so may cause breakdown of this unit.

FEATURES

1. Various copying functions

• This set is equipped with a number of convenient copying modes: “Disc dubbing” for copying entire discs, “Make CD dubbing” for copying an entire disc then automatically finalizing, “1-track dubbing” for copying single tracks, and “Scan record dubbing” for selecting the tracks you want to record while scanning CDs and copying the selected tracks.

• One of two copying speeds can be selected: normal speed and double speed.

2. Recording from external devices

• This set is equipped with three convenient synchronized recording functions: “Disc synchro recording” for recording an album on the source side, “Make CD recording” for automatically finalizing after synchronized recording of a disc, and “Track synchro recording” for recording track at a time. It is also possible to record manually.

3. An abundance of playback functions

• Thanks to the combination of the CD and CD-R units, this set is equipped with three different play modes: “Relay play” for relay playback between the disc in the CD unit and the disc in the CD-R unit, “Mix play” for programmed or random playback of the disc in the CD unit and the disc in the CD-R unit as if they were a single disc, and “Dual play” with which the CD and CD-R units can be operated independently.

• This set is equipped with the programmed play, random play, and all-track, 1-track and A-B repeat play modes.

4. Rich Variety of Digital Input Jacks

• In addition to the analog input jacks, this unit is equipped with a total of two digital input jacks. There is one optical digital input jack for use with digital sources such as CD, MD and satellite broadcasts, and there is one digital coaxial input jack.

5. Equipped with Sampling Rate Converter

• This converter permits direct digital input recording from DAT or satellite broadcasts (32 kHz, 48 kHz) which have sampling frequencies that differ from that of the 44.1 kHz used with CD.

6. Text Entry and Display Function

• The album title and the track title for individual tracks can be entered and displayed for recorded CD-R/RW discs.

7. Equipped with

, HDCD®(High Definition

Compatible Digital

) decoder (CD unit)

• During track selection, during search and when the recorder sustains a strong impact, the disc’s rotational speed changes greatly, causing a small noise to be emitted. This is not a malfunction of the recorder.

• If the CD recorder is operated while an FM or AM broadcast is being received, there may be noise in the FM or AM reception. Please switch the power to the CD recorder off at such times.

• The CDR-W1500 has a broad dynamic range. Please exercise caution when turning up the volume on the amplifier in cases when the playback volume is low. If the volume is turned up too high, it could damage the speakers.

• Placing this recorder or its connection cords near a TV or other audio device could cause a humming sound to be emitted. If this occurs, relocate the recorder or reroute the connection cords.

• Be sure to remove the disc from the recorder before moving it. The disc could be damaged if left in the recorder while it is being moved.

• Do not place any object in the tray in the position where the disc is loaded, or open and close the tray with anything inside. Foreign objects in the tray could damage the play mechanism.

• Do not move the recorder from a cold place to a warm place suddenly. If the recorder is cold when brought into a warm room, condensation could form, preventing proper operation of the recorder.

Methods of Recording to Disc

2 CD-R Discs

• CD-R discs incorporate a pigment layer for recording. When exposed to the recording laser, a change in form occurs at the boundary of this layer and the plastic layer resulting in the recording of the signal. The recorded information is maintained until the end of the life of the disc.

• After recording, finalized discs can be played on ordinary CD players.

2 CD-RW Discs

• CD-RW discs incorporate a phase change layer. The recording process causes this layer to change from a crystal (reflective) condition to an amorphous (noncrystal) condition.

• Recorded information can be erased from CD-RW discs. Deletion can take the form of deleting all of the disc tracks or only the specified tracks working back from the last track of the disc.

• Finalized CD-RW discs can be played on CD players designed for use with CD-RW discs as well as on CD recorders.

NOTE:

This CD recorder uses the semiconductor laser. To allow you to enjoy music at a stable operation, it is recommended to use this in a room of 10 °C (50 °F) ~ 30 °C (86 °F).

• Place of installation

To ensure sufficient ventilation, leave a space of at least 10 cm between the front, sides and back of the unit and walls or other objects which may obstruct ventilation.

2 Recording from a digital input

• When performing digital recording of a CD, track numbers are updated when the first sound is detected after the track switches.

• When making a digital recording from a MD, a track number that is the same as the original track number will automatically be associated.

• When recording from a DAT, track numbers are given when track switching is detected using the start IDs.

• When recording from a satellite broadcasts or other digital equipment, the detection of a blank portion of about 3 seconds or

longer, the same as when making recordings with an analog input, will result in the operation of the auto track function and the automatic association of the track number.

• The track number might not switch correctly when there is a lot of noise in the blank portion between tracks.

• The track number might change when the signal level is very low within the track.

Approximately 3 seconds

NOTES:

• When recording an analog source that contains a very low level signal within the track, or a digital source other than CD/MD/DAT, switch off the auto track function then make a manual recording and associate the track numbers manually.

• When the recording level is set too low while recording an analog source or a digital source other than CD/MD/DAT, the track numbers might not be associated at the correct position. Please set a suitable recording level.

Digital

★ Recording in the Synchro-recording mode (e.g., disc Synchro-recording, track Synchro-recording, and auto finalization recording)

results in the track numbers being automatically associated. The manner in which the track numbers are associated will differ as follows for digital recording and for analog recording depending on the conditions.

2 Recording from an analog input

Track numbers will automatically be associated when a blank portion of about 3 seconds or longer is detected.

• When the input signal is affected by noise or there is some other interference, the track number might not change at the correct position.

• The track number might change when the signal level is very low within the track.

✽ The on/off setting of the auto track function is possible in manual recording. (See

“Setting of the Auto Track Mark” on Page 10.)

Finalization Processing of CD-R Discs

After the recording of a CD-R disc is completed, finalization processing is required to enable it to be played on an ordinary CD player.

removing or returning the disc to the case.

• Do not bend the disc.

• Do not heat the disc.

• Do not enlarge the center hole.

• Do not write on the label surface (i.e., printed side) with a

ballpoint pen or pencil.

• Water droplets may form on the surface of the disc when it is suddenly brought from a cold place such as outdoors to a warm place. If this happens, do not dry the disc with a hair dryer.

Storage Precautions

• Be sure to eject the disc after playing.

• Always return the disc to its case to avoid dust, scratches,

and misshaping.

• Do not leave the disc in the following places:

1. Where it will be exposed to direct sunlight for long periods.

2. Where there is a lot of dampness and dust.

3. Where it will be exposed to heat such as from a heater.

NOTES:

• Do not attach commercially available disc labels or other seals on the disc. Doing so may make it impossible to record or play the disc properly.

Digital

• Do not use record spray or static electricity prevention products. Do not use benzene, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.

ENGLISH

Precautions When Loading Discs

• Only load one disc. Loading two or more discs in a layer will cause breakdown and may also scratch the discs.

• Discs of the 8 cm size should be carefully aligned with the recessed disc guide area and loaded without the use of an adapter. If not properly loaded, the disc may fall out or the disc holder may cease to open.

• Be careful not to get your finger caught when the disc holder is closing.

RESTRICTIONS RELATED TO THE CD-R/RW STANDARDS

★ Standards concerned with CD recorder playback have been established based on the existing standards of CD players;

however, for recording, the method differs from that used with existing cassette decks and MD recorders, etc. In view of this, please gain a good understanding of the following restrictions associated with CD-R/RW discs and enjoy the medium.

Restrictions of Audio CD-R/RW Discs

• Only audio CD-R/RW discs can be recorded with this unit. “Use Audio CD” will be displayed when a disc other than one for use with audio such as a CD-R/RW disc for use with a personal computer or another type of disc is loaded. (See “Discs that Can Be Used with this Unit” on Page 4.)

• CD-R discs can be recorded to only once. The recorded information cannot be erased.

• The recorded information of CD-RW discs can be erased. When this disc has been finalized, erase after the finalization removal operation has been performed. (See “Cancellation of CD-RW disc finalizing” on Page 27.)

• Recording mistakes made with CD-R discs cannot be erased; therefore, it is recommended that a CD-RW disc be used until you

are accustomed to the recording operation.

Restrictions in Recording with this Unit

• The recording operation procedure is the same for CD-R discs and CD-RW discs.

• When making additional recording to a previously recorded disc, the end of the last track is detected and recording is started

from there.

• The record standby mode cannot be set for CD-R/RW discs with a recordable time of about 8 seconds or less remaining. “Disc Full” will be displayed at this time.

• A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded to one CD-R/RW disc. When the recording reaches the 99th track, “Disc Full” is

displayed and recordings beyond this track will not be possible.

• Digital recording is not possible from CD-R/RW discs onto which have been digitally recorded, normal is it possible from MD or DAT, etc. When a digital recording is attempted from such sources, “Copy Prohibit” is displayed. To record from these digital sources, make the recording from the analog input. (See “Digital Copies” on Page 5.)

• This unit cannot record CD-ROM and other non-audio signal sources. When an attempt is made to record from such sources, “Copy Prohibit” is displayed.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

2 The included remote control unit (RC-278) can be used to operate the CDR-W1500 from a distance.

q Remove the remote control unit’s back lid.

w Insert the two R6P (AA) batteries in the battery

compartment, in the direction indicated by the marks inside the compartment.

e Put the back lid back on.

Cautions on batteries

• Use R6P (AA) batteries in the remote control unit.

• The batteries should be replaced with new ones after

approximately one year, though this depends on the frequency with which the remote control unit is used.

• Even if the batteries are less than a year old, replace them with new ones if the remote control unit no longer operates even from a short distance from the main unit.

• The included battery is only for verifying operation. Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.

• When inserting new batteries, wait about two minutes after removing the old batteries before inserting the new ones.

• Be sure to set the batteries in the proper “<” and “> ” directions, as indicated by the marks in the remote control unit’s battery compartment.

• Remove the batteries when not using the remote

control unit for long periods of time.

• To avoid explosions and fluid leakage:

• Do not use one new battery with one old one.

• Do not use two different types of batteries.

• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose

of batteries in flames.

• If the battery fluid should leak, wipe all the fluid off the battery compartment, then insert new batteries.

• When operating the remote control unit, point it at the main unit as shown in the diagram.

• The remote control unit can be operated from a direct distance of approximately 8 meters from the main unit. This distance will be shortened, however, if there are obstacles or when operated from an angle. (The remote control unit will operate from a horizontal angle of up to about 30°.)

COPYING PROCEDURE

About copying

★ Copying can be performed easily from the set’s CD unit onto the CD-R unit. ★ There are two copying speeds (normal and high) and four copying modes.

• The mode switches as described below each time the normal speed copying button (NORMAL) or the high speed copying button (HIGH) is pressed.

• The recording level is automatically set to the default value (0.0 dB).

• The repeat and random play modes are canceled when the copy mode is set.

• During normal speed copying you can listen to the sound as you copy.

• During high speed copying no sound is produced.

• No signals are output from the digital outputs during high speed copying.

• During copying, buttons other than the CD or CD-R stop buttons do not function.

• When CD TEXT compatible CDs are copied, the disc names and track names are also copied.

★ When copying, switch the relay mode to the normal or dual mode. Copying is not possible in the relay or mix mode. ★ For optimum recording, make sure there are no fingerprints, scratches or dust on the signal surface of the source side CD or

the CD-R/RW.

★ The auto track function is always activated in the copying mode. It is not possible to assign track numbers manually.

Disc dubbing: In this mode, entire CDs can be copied onto CD-R/RW. (“All Tr Dubb” is displayed.)

Make CD: In this mode, entire CDs can be copied onto CD-R/RW then finalized automatically. (“Make CD Dubb” is displayed.)

1TR dubbing: In this mode, single tracks on CDs can be copied. (“1Tr Dubbing” is displayed.)

Scan REC dubbing: In this mode, the desired tracks can be selected from CDs and copied. (“Scan Rec Dub” is displayed.)

NOTES:

• Copying is normally performed with digital signals, but if digital copying is not possible due to SCMS restrictions, copying is performed with analog signals. In addition, copying is always performed at normal speed. (See Page 5.)

• Analog signal copying is always performed in the normal speed mode.

• If when the copying mode is set the recordable time on the CD-R/RW is shorter than the time of the CD source you are

trying to copy, “CD-R Short” is displayed and both the CD and CD-R units are set to the stop mode. If this happens, check the disc’s recordable time. (However, when recording track numbers 21 or higher from a source CD containing over 20 tracks, “CD-R Short” is not displayed even if the source time you want to record is shorter than the CDR/RW’s recordable time.)

• If the disc name has already been input on the disc on which you are recording, only the track names are copied.

• For some CDs, the text cannot be copied because of copyright protection. In this case “Text Protect” is

displayed.

• Do not turn off the power or unplug the power cord while “Now PMA Rec” is displayed after recording is completed. Doing so may render the disc unusable.

ENGLISH

NOTE:

• If you wish to input text data, select the “All Tr Dubb” mode. With CD-R discs, text data cannot be input after the disc has been finalized.
