4 – Recording
Before you start recording using the CD-RW2000,
make sure that you understand the following key
points:
make sure that you understand the following key
points:
• Once you have recorded on a CD-R disc, the data
cannot be erased from it.
• 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 pre-recorded disc.
Finalized CD-RW discs, however, can be erased,
refreshed and re-recorded.

4.1 Input selection
To select the input to be recorded, press the
INPUT

key on the main unit
6
.
Repeated presses of the key cycle through the follow-
ing options:

DIGITAL
indicator shows on
the display, and the appropriate indicator:
AES/EBU

COAXIAL
or
OPTICAL

If the analog signal is selected the boxed
ANALOG
indicator lights on the display, together with the
BALANCE
indicator in the case of balanced analog
inputs.
4.1.1
Signal volume
• The analog signals received at the
ANALOG IN
jacks are controlled with the
REC LEVEL
controls
D
.
• Digital signal levels (from whatever the source) as
well as the level of analog signals once they have
passed through the
passed through the
REC LEVEL
controls are
adjusted in the following way:
1
Press the
RECORD
key (
J
or
D
) to place the
unit in record ready mode.
2
Repeatedly press the
MENU
key (
9
or
6
)
until the display shows
VOLUME XXXdB
where
XXX
is the current setting.
3
Use the
MULTI DIAL
control
B
or the
SKIP
keys
H
to adjust the input volume between
-60dB
and
+18db
(relative to the origi-
nal input level). There is also a
----
setting
which represents a complete signal cut.
NOTE
If digital direct is selected, as described below (4.3.3,
“Digital direct”), the digital volume is bypassed and
this menu item disappears. However, once the digital
direct mode is turned off, the menu reappears, the
settings previously made here will take effect, and
the input volume may suddenly change.

Input monitoring
When the unit is in record ready, or record mode, the
input signal is output from the
input signal is output from the
OUT
jacks (digital and
analog), allowing you to hear the input signal.
The meters also show the current signal level.
However, it is only possible to record, or to enter
record ready mode, when a recordable disc is
inserted. To allow monitoring of the input signal at
other times, or when the unit is stopped, use the
record ready mode, when a recordable disc is
inserted. To allow monitoring of the input signal at
other times, or when the unit is stopped, use the
MONITOR
key on the remote control unit
9
.
The
RECORD
key
J
on the main unit will also enter
monitor mode from stop mode when there is no
recordable disc in the unit (when there is a recordable
disc in the unit, pressing the

Exit the monitor mode by using the

4.1.3
Frequency conversion
The sampling frequency for CDs is 44.1 kHz. The
CD-RW2000 will always record (and play back) CDs
at this frequency.

at this frequency.
However, if recording through a digital connection
(either AES/EBU, coaxial or optical) and the source
has been recorded at a frequency other than
44.1 kHz, or is being played back at a non-standard
speed using a varispeed unit (more than 0.02% away
from the standard), the CD-RW2000’s internal fre-
quency converter can automatically convert the
incoming frequency to 44.1 kHz.
