TASCAM CD-D4000
1 - Introduction
The TASCAM CD-D4000 CD duplicator provides
you with a quick and simple method of copying your
original audio material in CD format at more than
real-time speeds, using easily-obtainable, low-cost
CD-R media, with no auxiliary equipment or com-
puter system required.
It is especially useful for duplicating material pro-
duced using the TASCAM CD-RW5000 on CD-RW
media, which may be unplayable on certain types of
CD player. The CD-D4000 can read CD-RW discs
produced on the CD-RW5000 for easy duplication.
The CD-D4000 can also be used to duplicate CD-
ROM material to which you own copyright or for
which you have appropriate permission.
NOTE
This product is designed to help you record
and reproduce sound works to which you own
the copyright, or where you have obtained
permission from the copyright owner or the
rightful licensor. Unless you own the copy-
right, or have obtained the appropriate per-
mission from the copyright owner or the
rightful licensor, your unauthorized recording,
reproduction or distribution thereof, may result
in severe civil and criminal penalties under
copyright laws and international copyright
treaties. If you are uncertain about your rights,
contact your legal advisor. Under no circum-
stances will TEAC Corporation be responsible
for the consequences of any illegal copying
performed using the CD-D4000.
Depending on the quality of the source CD (audio
CD, CD-R, CD-RW or CD-ROM), it is possible to
copy material at up to four times the real-time rate
(selectable from the front panel), making it conve-
nient for rapid duplication of a number of identical
discs, etc.
Depending on the content of the source CD, you may
not be able to read it, or to make a completely accu-
rate copy of the source.
Making multiple copies of the same disc may
degrade the sound quality.
NOTE
Although the operation of the CD-D4000 is
relatively straightforward, we strongly suggest
that you read this manual before starting
operations. There are a few factors affecting
the production of CD-R discs using the CD-
D4000 which may not be immediately
obvious.
