THE PRICE
As you’d expect from HHB, value and
quality are inherent in the design and
engineering of the new HHB CDR830
BurnIT CD Recorder. Featuring high
precision 24 bit A-D converters with
24 bit multi-level Delta Sigma D-A
converters, the CDR830 BurnIT delivers
recordings of the highest possible quality.
The precise design of the CD laser
assembly means that every single CD-R
and CD-RW disc written by the BurnIT is
exceptionally accurate, providing greater
compatibility with other CD players and
recorders. Solidly built for studio use, the
BurnIT records on readily available, low
cost discs (see right) and features an
SCMS-free digital input with 3 easy to
use synchro record modes and a built-in
sample rate converter.
• STORE TEXT WITH
YOUR RECORDINGS
The BurnIT’s CD Text feature enables
the user to store disc, track and artist
names with every recording. This
information is then displayed whenever
the disc is played on a CD Text
compatible CD player or recorder –
perfect for demos,
sound libraries, DJs,
CD juke boxes,
archiving, etc.
Infra-red remote
for simple text
editing and full
recorder control.
A full complement of professional features
The CDR830 BurnIT features
CD Text, enabling disc, artist
and track names to be
displayed. Up to 120 characters
can be stored for each title, with
up to 2000 characters stored
in the BurnIT’s memory from the
last three unfinalized discs read.
Once a CD-R is finalized, the
BurnIT will read the text from
the disc, not from memory,
enabling text from other
unfinalized discs to be stored.
The BurnIT’s menu provides
access to a number of other
features. Fade in and out times
can be adjusted from 1 to 12
seconds, the SCMS status of
the disc you are burning can be
set (Inhibit, Once, Permit) and
IDs can be triggered on both
analog and digital recordings
(without subcode information)
by adjusting the auto track
increment level threshold from
-24 to -78dB in 6dB steps.

Each entry can be up to 120
characters in length (including spaces),
with the title scrolling if it is too long to
fit in the display.
• DIGITAL RECORDING
MADE SIMPLE
It’s easy to record from CD, DAT, MD or
hard disk using the BurnIT’s SCMS-free
digital input. A built-in SRC accepts
sampling rates from 32kHz to 48kHz and
there are 3 synchro modes: 1 Track, All
Tracks and All Tracks with Finalize. When
recording from a digital source, the
BurnIT’s digital record gain control can
adjust the signal input level, enabling gain
adjustment for individual tracks. This is
perfect when recording a compilation CD
from many different sources, since some
tracks may be at a higher or lower
volume level. Each digital input,
both coaxial and optical, has its
own level control. All signal levels
can be monitored during recording
or playback using the LCD meters,
with an input monitor facility also
provided. The BurnIT also has a
left/right digital balance control,
enabling the balance of digital and
analog sources to be adjusted
before they are recorded.
• CD-RW RECORDING
Five CD-RW erase modes deliver
great flexibility when compiling
recordings. These include
erasing individual tracks, several
tracks, all tracks, erasing the
table of contents or erasing the
entire disc.
