ELECTRIC POWER
1
Power Sources - Connect this unit only to power sources specified in the Operating Instructions, and
as marked on the unit.
2
Polarization - As a safety feature, some units are equipped with polarized AC power plugs which can
only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug
into an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please call
a qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of
the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3
AC power cord - When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC power plug. Do not
pull the cord itself.
•
•
Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this could result in fire or shock.
Power cords should be routed to avoid being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular
attention to the cord from the unit to the power socket.
•
Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire
or shock.

5
Extension cord - To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power plug with an
extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to
prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.
When not in use - Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if the unit will not be used for
several months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues to flow to
the unit, even when the power is turned off.

RECORDING
PRECAUTIONS
ON RECORDING PROGRAMMED PLAY
Do not attempt to record a sequence of tracks, as programmed on your DAT, DCC or other digital sources.
Those tracks would not be numbered continuously. If you want to record a sequence of tracks, record them
one by one.
ABOUT THE UPDATE PROCESS
“UPDATE” is displayed after recording. The update process writes non-audio data in the PMA (Program
Memory Area) of the disc. When finalizing the disc, TOC (Table Of Contents) is generated from the PMA
data.
WHEN DIGITAL INPUT IS INTERRUPTED DURING RECORDING
If incoming digital input from the source device is interrupted momentarily, such as when the sampling
frequency is changed on the source, a blank segment is recorded. If there is an interruption longer than 4
seconds, this unit stops recording and updates the PMA data.
WHEN RECORDING ADDITIONAL TRACKS
Additional recordings are made in sequence to the end of the last track on a non-finalized CD-R/RW if
there is enough time remaining on the disc. Up to 99 tracks can be recorded on a single disc.
MINIMUM LENGTH OF RECORDING YOU CAN MAKE
The shortest possible length of recording is restricted to 6 seconds. In other words, you cannot terminate
recording before the first 6 seconds are up. During this interval, pressing PLAY or STOP has no effect.
COMPRESSED AUDIO, AND VIDEO OR GRAPHICS DATA
This unit is not capable of recording compressed audio like DTS and Dolby Digital Surround sounds. Non-
audio data contained in a Graphics CD or HDCD cannot be recorded on this unit either.
COPY PROHIBIT
Some commercial CD discs may contain a copy protection data bit that will prevent the disc from being
dubbed. In this case, “COPY PROHIBIT” will light.
SRC (SAMPLE-RATE CONVERTER) INDICATOR
This indicator lights when the Sample-Rate Converter is in use to change the digital sample rate when the
incoming signal is not the standard 44.1kHz used by standard CDs. This is an automatic function and does
not require any user intervention.

CHANGING THE ORDER OF TRACKS TO BE DUBBED
Before starting the dubbing, program the tracks so that they will be played in the desired order. See page
24 for details.
•
Dub containing programmed playback may only be made by real-time or 2x speed. If you attempt to
make a programmed dubbing at 4x speed, the unit will automatically select the 2x speed.
NOTE
•
•
Recording levels can be adjusted during digital recordings.
It is possible to listen to the disc while it is being dubbed by selecting the appropriate input on your
receiver, preamp or processor.
Do not use high volume levels when listening to high-speed dubbings while they are in progress. It may
cause malfunction.

•
PAUSE does not operate while a dubbing is in progress.
Tracks will be added automatically to mirror the track structure of the original disc.
The total time indication of the recorded CD may vary slightly from the original due to variations in the
spin speed of each drive. But no information has been lost in the recording process.
If the original disc being dubbed is a digital copy or if it contains copy-prohibit signals, the unit will
automatically make a copy with real-time speed in analog mode because of SCMS (see page 29).

MP3 DISC PLAYBACK
The MP3 function supports the following discs ; MP3 and MP3/CD mixed discs (MP3 + CDDA) multi-
session recorded discs. The MP3 playing function is accessed by the MP3 button on the remote control.
MP3 discs automatically convert the playing function to the MP3 On Mode without pressing the MP3
button. Any mixed MP3/CD discs will be read as CDDA. With these CDs, conversion to the MP3 On Mode
will occur only after pressing the MP3 button.
MP3 operation is possible in both CDP and CDR. However if one deck is in the MP3 Play Mode, the other
deck cannot function in the MP3 Play mode. The MP3 function allows playing options like RANDOM, SKIP,
and the use of the number buttons. However, it does not provide the Search function. In this mode only
MP3 discs can be played. The disc in the deck in MP3 Play Mode can proceed with the “Dubbing” of CDDA
Format to the recording deck at 1x speed. The MP3 function can only support “External Analog Out”. It
does not support “External Digital Out.”
Press the MP3 button on the remote control to select MP3 or CD format as required.
HDCD DISC PLAYBACK
HDCD IS?
HDCD, which stands for High Definition Compatible Digital®, is a sophisticated process that enables the
unit to deliver outstanding digital-to-analog decoding, no matter what type of CD is played.
When a disc with the HDCD logo is played, this unit is able to take advantage of the special recording
process that is used in the creation of HDCD discs. Although HDCD discs are playable on any CD player,
when they are used in a unit such as this unit, the special circuitry delivers audio with extraordinary fidelity,
stunning resolution and the highest possible overall quality. The HDCD process effectively cancels the
additive and subtractive distortions that are present in other recordings.
No special adjustment is required to play a HDCD disc. Simply play the disc as you would any other CD,
and this unit will automatically sense that it is a HDCD recording. If the special circuitry (Processor) is not
used by another deck to decode a MP3 CD or even another HDCD disc, the HDCD indicator will light in
the Information Display on the front panel to remind you that a HDCD disc is playing.
It is important to note that the HDCD process is completely compatible with standard recordings. Its high-
quality digital-to-analog circuitry provides enhanced play-back from all standard CD audio discs.
CD-TEXT DISC PLAYBACK
