which is connected to the analog in connectors of your
CD-recorder: connection is ANALOG.

recorder.

Tip:
For the best recording results we advise you to first
make a recording onto a CDRW (rewritable) disc.
If for instance you forgot to add track increments or
made another mistake during recording this can
always be corrected.When your recording is complete
and correctly recorded:
- finalize the CDRW disc
- record this disc onto a CDR (recordable) disc, using
the ‘Make CD’function. (See paragraph ‘Recording
an entire CD’)
