CD Recording
with indications of 01 00:00, press the
CDR Play/Select Button
(
to start the dub.
While the dub is in progress, you will see the
track numbers and running time increase as
the disc is copied.The Level Indicators will
also flash but this is only for your reference,
as record levels may not be adjusted during
digital recordings. It is possible to listen to the
source disc while it is being dubbed by selecting
the appropriate input on your receiver, preamp
or processor.
During a dub it is possible to view the level for
either the output of the CDP/Play deck or the
input to the CDR/Record deck.To select the
display being viewed, press the desired
Level Indicator Select t.
Important Note: When a high-speed (x2 or
x4) dub is being made, you will hear the play-
back from the CDP Outputs ¡¢ª at the
faster speed. Fast speed playback increases the
pitch of a sound, and when played back at high
volume levels this may damage your speakers.
DO NOT use high volume levels when listening
to high-speed dubs while they are in progress.
The dub will stop automatically when the
source disc has played through to the end.After
the dub is finished, the Information Display will
show an UPDATE message, and then return
to normal operation.To manually stop a
dubbing operation, press the Stop Button
uÓ for either deck.
As with all recorded CD-R/CD-RW discs, the
disc must be finalized before it can be played in
other machines. See page 23 for instructions on
disc finalization.
Notes on Dubbing:
• If you wish to make a dub with the tracks in
a different order from the original disc, omit
tracks on a disc, or make a dub that mixes
tracks from different discs, create a Programmed
Playback List before pressing the Dubbing
Button ) to start the dub. Instructions for
creating a program list may be found on page 19.
Note: Dubs containing program lists may be
made at either the x1 or x2 speed. If you
attempt to make a Programmed Dub at the
x4 speed, the unit will automatically select
the x2 speed.
• The Pause buttons do not operate while a
dub is in progress.
• Tracks will be added automatically to mirror
the track structure of the original disc.
• The Total Time indication of the recorded CD
may vary slightly from the original due to
variations in the spin speed of each drive,
but this is normal. No information has been
lost in the recording process.
• If the original disc being dubbed is a digital
copy or if it contains copy-prohibit signals, the
unit will automatically make an analog copy.
• When a dub is made from an external digital
source that has a sample rate other than
44.1kHz, such as some modes of MiniDisc or
DAT, the CDR 30’s built-in sample rate converter
will automatically convert the digital signal to
44.1kHz for proper recording of a standard
CD Audio disc.When the sample rate converter
is in use, the Sample Rate Converter
Indicator R will light.
• Remember that MP3 discs may only be copied
to the conventional CD Audio format.
• When dubbing an MP3 disc, it is possible
that the total running time of the material on
the MP3 disc may exceed the capacity of the
record disc, since the compressed file structure
of the MP3 format allows over ten hours to
be recorded on a disc, while most CD-R discs
have a time limit of 74 minutes. In that case,
program the tracks to be recorded into a
playlist using the procedure shown on page 19;
otherwise, the record disc will stop once its
capacity has been reached.
Recording From an External Source
To record from an external source, first place a
CD-R or CD-RW audio disc in the Record
Deck %. Next, select the input to be used by
pressing the Input Select Button ı.
Pressing the button will cycle between the
input choices, which will be shown in the
Time/Message Display F as COAX REAR,
COAX FRONT, OPTICAL REAR,
OPTICAL FRONT or ANALOG.In
addition, an Input Indicator Z will light to
show the selected input.
After the digital input is selected, the connection
may be made to either the front panel ^&
or rear panel §¶ jacks. Note that when a
signal is present at both the front and rear
panel jacks, the signal at the front panel jacks
will be used as the input source. In that case,
the Front Input Indicator Y will light to
alert you to the fact that the source connected
to the front panel is in use.
Press the Auto/Manual Track Increment Button
m to select how tracks will be numbered on
the recorded disc.
• The default mode is Manual as indicated by
the Manual Track Increment Indicator K.
In that mode for either digital or analog
recordings, you must add track numbers man-
ually by pressing the Track Increment
Button n when you wish to increase the
track number.This mode is recommended for
recordings made from analog sources.
• The Auto mode will add track numbers auto-
matically, in one of two ways.When track
data is present from a digital recording, it will
be carried over to the new copy disc.Thus,
when the CD being played moves from one
track to the next track, the copy disc will also
increase the track number by one. Activate
the Auto mode by pressing the Auto/Manual
Button m and noting that the Manual
Track Increment Indicator K goes out.
• In the Auto mode for recordings from an ana-
log source or a digital source with no track
data, the track number will be increased
when the CDR 30 receives silence for 3 sec-
onds.After 5 seconds of silence (for digital,
10 seconds for analog sources), the recording
will stop.To activate the Auto mode, press the
Auto/Manual Track Increment Button m
once and note that the Manual Track
Increment Indicator K goes out.
To prepare for a recording, press the Record
Button t8.The Record Indicator O will
flash, and the word BUSY will briefly appear
in the Time/Message Display F.When the
Display returns to the track and running-time
information, the unit is ready to record.
Once the source material is playing, start the
actual recording by pressing the Play/Select
Button (. Note that the Record Indicator
O will stop flashing and the Time/Message
Display F will begin to show the running
time of the recording and the track data.
Depending on which mode of track increment
has been selected as described above, track
numbers must be increased manually or they
will be added automatically. Regardless of
which mode has been selected, a track may be
added at any time by pressing the Track
Increment Button n.
Note: During recording from an external
source, the unit will automatically go into
“Record/Pause“ when it senses 3 seconds of
silence.The recording will resume when a signal
is received.Also, when the Pause button is
pressed during a recording, the track number
will increase by one number and the recording
will stop and must be restarted by pressing the
Play/Select Button (.When the recording
is finished, press the Stop Button uÓ.
