j [Normal and high-speed dubbing

Youwill soondiscoverhow easyit is to make yourown COs
Nevertheless,we recommendthatyou usea CD-RWdisc for

yourfirst try. Thetwo ways to makerecordingsaredescribed
below:

- Digital dubbing)normalor high-speeddubbing)

- Recordingfrom an external source:

- Digital

- Digital with synchronizedstart usingexternal CDplayer

- Analogue

• The recordingprocedureisthe samefor CD-RsorCD-RWs

• If the disc is a CD-RWandis alreadyfinalizedyoumust

unfinalizeit first (page17).

• Ifthe disc already containsrecordings,theCDrecorderwill
automaticallysearchfor the end of the last track, so that

you canstart recordingfromthere.

• There mustbe at least 7 secondsof recordingtime left on
the disc, or you will not be ableto activatethe record
standbymode.

• If the display indicatescoPYPROHIBIT,no digital recording
can bemadeof the sourcematerial. Recordingwill not
start or will stop after 4 seconds.

• TheSerial CopyManagement System (SCMS)only
alLowsdigital recordingunderspecificconditions:

- It is not possibleto make a digital copyfrom a digital
copy.

- Analoguerecord!ngisalways possible!

- Thenumberof recordingsfrom the original is unlimited.

• A maximumof 99trackscanberecordedona disc.The
minimumallowabletracklengthis4seconds.

• Digital recordingscanbe madefrom CDs(orother sources
with an output SampleFrequencyof 44,1 kHz+/- 100 ppm)

via the digital input.

• RecordingsfromDATor DCCplayerswill not stop
automaticagy.

{lmportant:

If you want to play back the recorded CD-R disc on the
CDPlayer deck or on any etherregular CDplayer, it

must be finalized first.See the instructions for
finalizing discs (page 17).
