Creating an audio CD

Before you actually write data to a CD, you will need to 
make basic settings for the CD-RW drive.

In the Work Navigate section, repeatedly 
press the [CD] key or hold down the [CD] 
key and use the CURSOR [

]/[

] keys to 

access the SETTING page of the CD screen.

1

Erases the data that was written to CD-RW media. 
For details, refer to “Erasing CD-RW media” (

B

Selects the speed at which audio data will be writ-
ten to CD-R/RW media.

C

Specifies whether a writing test will be performed 
when you execute writing.

D

Specifies whether the actual writing operation will 
be performed.

E

Enables/disables the function that prevents buffer 
underrun (an error that can occur when data trans-
fer cannot keep up with writing speed).

F

This indicates the speed at which data other than 
CD audio (e.g., backup data or WAV files) is written 
to CD-R/RW media. Normally this will indicate x8. 
This will indicate x4 if the media supports a maxi-
mum writing speed of x4. This field is for display 
only, and cannot be edited.

G

If this button is on, the original data will be com-
pared with the backed-up data or the exported 
WAV file after a backup or export operation is per-
formed, to check whether any errors occurred while 
writing the data.

H

Selects one of the following two choices to specify 
how the drive will operate when CD-R/RW media is 
inserted.

ACCESS ...................... The drive will spin only when 

access is required.

DISC IN ..................... The drive will spin whenever 

media is inserted.

Move the cursor to the AUDIO WRITE SPEED 
field, and turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to select 
the writing speed.

You can select either x8 (eight times as fast as audio 
playback) or x4 (four times as fast as audio play-
back). Normally you should use x8, and drop down 
to x4 if errors occur during writing.

Use the TEST button and WRITE button to 
select the writing operation(s).

The TEST button and WRITE button specify whether 
a writing test and/or the actual writing operation 
will be performed. The combination of buttons that 
are on will determine the operation(s) that will 
occur, as follows.

Only the TEST button on .........Only a writing test will be 

performed.

Only the WRITE button on ......Writing will occur imme-

diately.

Both the WRITE button and 
TEST button on ...........First a writing test will be per-

formed, and then the actual writing 
will be performed.

Depending on the media and the state of the hard 
disk, it is possible that an error may occur while the 
data is being written. (If you are using a CD-R, this 
will make the media unusable.) Thus, you can turn 
on the TEST button to check whether an error will 
occur before you actually write the disc. If an error 
occurs during the test, halt the procedure, and 
either lower the writing speed or set the UNDER-
RUN PROTECT button to ENABLE.

If desired, set the UNDERRUN PROTECT but-
ton to ENABLE.

The CD-RW drive of the AW16G has a function to 
prevent “buffer underrun” errors which can occur if 
data transfer cannot keep up with the writing speed.
If you switch the UNDERRUN PROTECT button to 
the “ENABLE” setting, this function will be enabled, 
and buffer underruns will be prevented.
