GLOSSARY
Album
An album is a unit used while playing back or recording audio
signals on this unit. For detailed information, see “Data on the
HDD” (P.16).
Audio Master Quality Recording
Audio Master Quality Recording is a high quality recording mode
used to create an audio CD with its original quality. By minimizing
the jitter that subtly degrades the audio quality or even causes data
transmission failure, Audio Master Quality Recording actualizes a
clear sound close to the original sound.
Bookmark
A bookmark is a collection of audio tracks of your preference. You
can play back or record audio data using a bookmark, and an album
can be created from a bookmark. For detailed information, see
“Data on the HDD” (P.16) or “Data on CDs” (P.17).
CD TEXT
CD TEXT is text information (album title, track title, etc) recorded
on CDs and can be read only with a CD player or CD-ROM drive
that supports CD TEXT.
Digital Move
Digital move implies moving audio data recorded on the HDD onto
CD-R/RW discs. The audio data once digital moved onto CD-R/RW
discs are erased from the HDD. Because digital move is regarded as
one generation of digital copying, audio data can be digitally copied
from CDs onto the HDD and then from the HDD onto CD-R/RW
discs. However, audio data cannot be copied onto several CD-R/
RW discs at the same time.
Disc
A disc is a unit used while playing back or recording audio signals
on this unit. For detailed information, see “Data on the HDD”
(P.16) or “Data on CDs” (P.17).
Emphasis
Emphasis is a recording mode used to improve the quality of audio
data. Emphasis turns the volume of the upper register up before
recording and down while playing back, resulting in a decrease in
the noise level of the upper register.
Finalize
Finalize is a process to enable audio data recorded onto CD-R/RW
discs to be played back on CD players or other CD-RW compatible
devices. An audio disc created on this unit must be finalized to be
played back on other playback devices.
Group
A group is a unit used while playing back or recording audio signals
on this unit and is a collective term for albums, discs and book-
marks. A group consists of several audio tracks. For detailed
information, see “Data on the HDD” (P.16) or “Data on CDs”
(P.17).
SCMS
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) is a system developed by
JASRAC (Japanese Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and
Producers) to prevent unlimited digital copying of CD’s and other
prerecorded media. In essence, SCMS prevents more than one
generation of digital copying (i.e. a copy of an SCMS copy-
protected source cannot be duplicated).
TOC
TOC (Table of Contents) is a disc index recorded on a finalized disc
and enables playback devices to distinguish audio tracks recorded
on the disc.
Track
A track is equivalent to one audio recording and is the smallest unit
used while playing back or recording audio signals on this unit. For
detailed information, see “Data on the HDD” (P.16) or “Data on
CDs” (P.17).
Track Mark
A track mark is a mark made at the beginning of a track and enables
playback devices to distinguish the starting position of each audio
track. A track mark also facilitates track search and intro playback.
You can make a track mark on this unit either automatically or
manually.
