Recording on a CD-R/CD-RW
Before You Start Recording
• This unit has been designed to record on the following discs — both blank and unfinalized CD Recordable (CD-R) and
CD Rewritable (CD-RW).
• It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the
owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable programme and in any literary, dramatic, musical,
or artistic embodied therein.
• The sampling frequency rate converter built in the unit allows you to record a digital source if its sampling frequency is 32 kHz,
44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz. If no playback component is connected to the OPTICAL IN terminal or if the sampling frequency of the
connected component is not 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz, “UN LOCK” appears on the display (no recording is possible).
The sampling frequency indicator (32, 44, 48) lights up to indicate the sampling frequency of the incoming signals through the
OPTICAL IN terminal.
• You cannot record the entire Dolby Digital or DTS Digital Surround signals through the OPTICAL IN terminal.
• When you record onto an unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW, its recordings are not erased or overwritten. The recording starts from the
point following the last recorded track on the disc.
If you want to record on such a CD-RW from its beginning, you have to erase its contents first (see “Erasing the Tracks on a CDRW” on page 14. This is only possible on CD-RWs).
• The recording level is automatically set correctly when recording through the digital terminals, so it is not affected by the REC
LEVEL control.
• When an unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW is loaded, this unit checks the disc and automatically adjusts the laser for optimum
recording setting — Optimum Power Control (OPC).
Using Automatic Tracking while Digital
Recording
Press AUTO TRACK so that the AUTO TRACK indicator
lights up on the display. A track marking is automatically
recorded.
• Each time you press the button, automatic tracking turns
on and off.
AUTO
TRACK
The AUTO TRACK indicator lights up.
When automatic track marking is activated:
Track markings are recorded automatically at the points
where the tracks change.
Note:
When “ANALOG” is selected as the recording source (see
page 12), automatic track marking is canceled temporarily.
(The AUTO TRACK indicator goes off.)
When automatic track marking is deactivated:
No track mark is recorded on a disc. This means that, when
playing this disc, this unit (or another CD player compatible
with CD-R/CD-RW) will regard the entire recording as one
track (track 1). You will not be able to directly select a song
or navigate through songs.
To put a track mark manually while recording, press
SET at the place you want to put a track mark.
SET
Adjusting the Recording Level through the
Analog Input Jacks
Before recording through the Analog Input jacks, adjust the
recording level properly.
To adjust the recording level, follow the procedure below

Finalization is the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-RW.
“Finalizing a disc” means to finish writing the TOC (Table of
Contents) on the recorded disc. Only after this process is completed,
a recorded CD-R or CD-RW can be played back on a CD player
compatible with CD-R/CD-RW.
IMPORTANT
• Once a CD-R has been finalized, no more recording can be made
on the disc.
• If you unplug the power cord or if a power failure occurs during
finalization process, recorded data will be lost and the disc may not
be utilized any more.

Additional Information
English
Glossary
Finalization
This is the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-RW.
“Finalizing a disc” means to finish writing the TOC (Table of
Contents) on the recorded disc. Only after this process is completed,
a recorded CD-R or CD-RW can be played back on a CD player
compatible with CD-R/CD-RW.
Sampling Frequency
When analog signals are converted into digital signals, they are
divided into many points and digitized. This dividing method is
called “sampling.” The sampling frequency indicates how many
points one second is divided into – for example, for CD sound, one
second is divided into 44100 points since its sampling frequency is
44.1 kHz.
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)
Digital audio components, such as CD recorder, MD (Mini-Disc)
recorder and DAT (Digital Audio Tape) recorder, can exchange
audio signals in the digital forms through digital input/output
terminals. The digital audio components allow digital copy of music
signals with little deterioration. This has made it necessary to have a
copy restriction rule for protecting the copyright, and “SCMS
(Serial Copy Management System)” has been established as a
result.
To protect the copyright, the SCMS allows only first-generation
digital copies to be made from premastered software (like CDs or
prerecorded MDs).
If you try to record from such copied discs on this unit, the
PROHIBIT indicator will light up on the display.
OPC (Optimum Power Control)
OPC is a function that checks the loaded disc and automatically
adjusts the laser for optimum recording setting before recording
through the Digital Optical Input terminal.
TOC (Table of Contents)
TOC is a kind of disc information containing sub-data (track
number, playing time, etc.) that enables us to search for tracks
quickly on the disc.
To write the TOC on a CD-R or CD-RW, you need to finalize the
disc.
3:12
4:15
6:05
Track mark
When playing a disc, you can move among the tracks.
You can do this because there is a mark recorded at the beginning of
each track enabling you to locate the track. This mark is called a
“track mark” and the portion between two adjacent track marks is
called a “track.”
Unfinalization
This means to erase the TOC (Table of Contents) on a finalized CDRW. This makes it possible to erase the recorded data from the CDRW.

Handling Discs
How to handle discs
When removing a disc from its case, press down
the center holder of the case and lift the disc out,
holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not
touch its recording surface.
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert
the disc around the center holder (with the
printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after
use.
To keep discs clean
A dirty disc may not play correctly. If a disc
does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a
straight line from center to edge.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the following
cases:
• After starting the heater.
• When the unit is moved from the extremely hot place to the
extremely cold place.
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, eject the
disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape — like a heart or flower;
otherwise, it will cause a malfunction.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place
them in a place subject to high temperature and humidity. Do not
leave them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner,
spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.
English
To play new discs
New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer
edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or
ballpoint pen, etc.
