General information
Some words about MP3
Maintenance
The revolutionary new music compression technology MP3
(MPEG Audio Layer-3) enables to shrink down original
digital audio sound data with a factor of up to 10 without
losing significant sound quality.This allows you to record up
to 10 hours of CD-like quality music on a single CD-ROM.
Clean the set with a soft, slightly
dampened lint-free cloth. Do not use
any cleaning agents as they may have
a corrosive effect.
Making your own MP3-CD
Do not expose the set,
Basically there are two sources for MP3 music on CD.You
can either create (“rip”) it from your own digital audio CDs
or download legal MP3 music from the Internet.
batteries or CDs to humidity, rain,
sand or excessive heat (caused by
heating equipment or direct sunlight).
Record (“burn”) the music from your hard disc on
CD-ROM with your home PC (make sure filename
ends with .mp3). Once finished, you can play your
MP3-CD on this set and enjoy the music.
The lenses may cloud over when the set is suddenly moved
from cold to warm surroundings. Playing a CD(RW) is not
possible then. Leave the set in a warm environment until
the moisture evaporates.
Data rate
The data rate is of great importance with MP3. It indicates
how fast bits are transfered.
Stereo music on a CD shows a data rate of about
1400 kilobits per second (kbps). To achieve a good MP3
quality a bit rate of 128 kbps is recommended. As
the encoding rate is user-selectable, make sure to reach this
data rate for MP3 as recordings less than 128 kbps will
suffer from a degradation in sound quality.
Disc handling
For recording it is very important to use dust and scratch
free discs.
To take a CD(RW) out of its box
easily, press the center spindle while
Recording
lifting the CD(RW).Always pick up a

Downloading MP3 files from the Internet or ripping songs
from your own digital audio CDs is a delicate process, also
influenced by the quality of the encoder program and
speed of your PC.This may sometimes result in “drop-outs”
which you may experience while listening to your MP3-CD.

In any case make sure to use a recording speed not faster
than indicated on the CD-ROM and avoid running other
programs simultaneously on your PC during the
recording process.
To clean a CD(RW), wipe it in a straight
line from the center toward the edge using
a soft, lint-free cloth.A cleaning agent may
damage the disc!

THE POWER SWITCHED ON
connects to the digital coaxial input of an amplifier/receiver or
digital recording device, so you can listen to playback of the set
via the amplifier/receiver.
For playback on both recorder deck and changer deck the set
should be connected to your amplifier/receiver. For this the
following outputs are present:
6 ANALOG IN
connects to the line (analog) output of an amplifier/receiver or
other analog source (tape deck, tuner etc.), so you can record
from this source (AUX Analog). For recording from a record
player both recorder and record player should be connected to
an amplifier/receiver
– Digital optical output (OPTICAL OUT);
– Digital coaxial output (DIGITAL OUT);
– Analog output (ANALOG OUT).
For external recording the following inputs are present:
– Digital optical input (OPTICAL IN);
– Digital coaxial input (DIGITAL IN);
– Analog input (ANALOG IN).
7 ANALOG OUT
connects to the line (analog) input of an amplifier/receiver or
analog recording device, so you can listen to playback of the set
via the amplifier/receiver.
These inputs can be connected to the corresponding output(s)
of your amplifier/receiver or directly to the corresponding
output(s) of the external source. Record players cannot be
connected directly to the set.
The connections you make will depend upon the possibilities
your audio equipment offers and how you are going to use the
set. Please refer to the user manuals for your other audio
equipment first.
Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give the best
performance in audio and usability.
If possible, always make both digital and analog connections. In
this way you can always make analog recordings when digital
recording is not possible.

About recording
Basic information
Auto Level Control (ALC)
We will describe:
Auto Level Control ensures that the tracks on the recorded
disc have a similar volume level.Always the already recorded
tracks of the CDR(W) disc will be taken as reference for
the volume level of the following recordings.
– Recording from internal CD changer
– Recording from an external source
– Finalizing CDR(W) discs:
Finalizing a CDR(W) disc is a simple procedure, necessary
to:
– play a recorded CDR on a standard CD player;
– play a recorded CDRW on a CDRW compatible CD
player
Auto level control becomes automatically active,
when:
– COMPILE CD is being used,
– a disc, a track or a track edit is being high speed recorded
and the CDR(W) has recordings on it, or
– a program (consisting from more than one disc) from the
CD changer is being high speed recorded.
– Unfinalizing CDRWdiscs:
Necessary to add new recordings to the disc or to erase the
disc
– Erasing from CDRWdiscs
Auto level control will not become active, when:
– using COPY CD,
– making recordings from an external source, or
– making normal recordings in listen mode.

The recording procedure is the same for CDR and CDRW
discs. Make sure that the CDR(W) is absolutely free of
scratches and dust particles.

Copyright protection
The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) prevents the
making of a digital copy from a digital copy.The system allows
making a digital recording from the original, however in some
countries this may require the authorization of copyright
holders.
When you try to record a copy protected material from an
external source, Copy Protectwill be displayed. No further
digital recording is possible then.
You can adjust the reference record level for both digital
and analog recordings from the internal changer as well as
from external sources.This is also possible when ALC is
active.This feature can also be used for fading your
recordings in or out.
When you try to record a copy protected material from the
internal CD changer no digital recording is possible, however
the CD recorder will automatically switch to analog recording.
It is not possible to copy an MP3-CD.

maximum (first red level).
Direct Line Recording (DLR)
The CD recorder is equipped with the high-performance
Direct Line Recording (DLR) technique. It ensures a perfect
recording of the source material, meaning a true“bit for bit”
recording. DLR will not be active, when ALC is used or when
the record level is adjusted.
