Before Recording
Before you start recording, make sure that you understand 
the following points:
<  Up to 99 tracks can be recorded according to the CD standards. 
When a 100th track is about to be recorded, recording will stop 
automatically.
<  A track less than 10 seconds in length on an audio CD cannot be 
recorded .
<  When recording is finished, “PMA WRITE” blinks for a few seconds, 
and then the unit goes into the stop mode. Do not apply shock or 
vibration to the unit while recording or “PMA WRITE” blinks.
< When the available recording time reaches 0, recording will stop 
automatically.
<  If a half-way recorded disc is inserted, recording continues next to 
the last recorded track.
< You can add tracks to an unfinalized recordable disc. Once 
finalized, a CD-R disc is “fixed” and behaves in the same way as a 
CD. Finalized CD-RW discs, however, can be unfinalized, erased and 
re-recorded.
<  When the auto track function is used, the tracks are separated 
based on the specified level. Therefore, if a silent part is contained 
at the beginning or in the middle of a track, the playback time may 
not be the same as the actual length of the track.
<  When track numbers are added to continuous music such as live 
performances, the sound is cut a moment.
<  If a disc recorded with this unit is played with another player, 
noises may occur when the track changes.
Auto track level
Sound level to detect “silence” to add track numbers using auto 
track when recording from external devices via ANALOG or to 
perform synchronous recording for digital sources such as CD, 
MD, and DAT.
This instruction manual describes “silence” as the situation 
where the recording source level is lower than the specified 
auto track level.
−60, −50, −40, and −30 dB can be selected.
Recording on a CD (1)
1
  Load a recordable CD-R or CD-RW disc into the unit.
Press the OPEN/CLOSE (L) button, place a disc on the disc tray 
with the disc label side up, and then press the OPEN/CLOSE (L) 
button to close the disc tray.
Make sure “NO TOC” and “CD-R” (or “CD-RW”) indicators light on 
the display.
2
  Select the source to be recorded using the INPUT SELECT 
button. (TAPE, LINE IN, PHONO or DIGITAL)
<  The input source cannot be changed during recording. 
<  You cannot record from USB to CD. 
3
  Press the RECORD button (K RECORD).
The red CD RECORD indicator to the right of the display and the 
 indicator on the display blink. 
< No button will work while “WAITING” is displayed. Wait a few 
seconds until “WAITING” disappears from the display. When 
DIGITAL is selected in step 
2
, the sampling frequency of the 
digital source (
) (“FS 44_1K”, “FS 48K” or “ FS 32K”) briefly 
appears after “WAITING”.
< “OPTICAL UNLOCK” appears when the unit cannot perceive 
the digital signal. In that case, connect a digital device to the 
DIGITAL IN terminal, switch it on, and wait a few seconds until 
the unit enters the record pause mode.
< If you cannot record even if you press the CD record button (K 
RECORD), load a recordable disc. Confirm that “NO TOC” and 
“CD-R” (or “CD-RW”) appears on the display and press the CD 
record button (K RECORD) again.
