1 Before You Start  
Avoiding condensation problems  
Condensation may form inside the player if it is brought into a  
warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises  
quickly. Although the condensation won’t damage the player, it  
may temporarily impair its performance. For this reason you  
should leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an  
hour before switching on and using.  
About CD, CD–R and CD–RW Discs  
This unit is compatible with three different types of compact disc:  
Playback-only CDs  
This unit will playback any ordinary audio CDs  
carrying the Compact Disc Digital Audio mark  
shown right.  
CD-Recordable discs  
Maintaining your CD recorder  
To clean the compact disc recorder, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For  
stubborn dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution made  
by diluting one part detergent to 5 or 6 parts water, wring well, then  
wipe off the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Do not use  
volatile liquids such as benzene and thinner which may damage  
the surfaces.  
Recordable CDs, or CD-R, carry the mark shown  
right, and are 'write once'. This means that once  
something is recorded on the disc it is perma-  
nentit can't be re-recorded or erased.  
CD-Rewritable discs  
Rewritable CDs, or CD-RW, carry the mark shown  
right. As the name indicates, you can erase and re-  
record material on these discs so that they can be  
used over and over again.  
Moving the unit  
Before moving this unit, remove all discs, then close the tray. The  
CD SELECT lights should all turn off. At this point, hold down the  
7 button (CD-R side) and press PLAY MODE on the front panel.  
When you see the message OK! you can then switch the unit off  
and unplug from the wall outlet. This procedure returns the unit to  
its shipping position. You cannot use the unit when the display  
reads OK! — normal operation resumes when power is switched  
back on.  
Consumer-use discs  
This recorder is only compatible with special consumer-use CD-R  
and CD-RW discs. These are clearly marked For Music Use  
Only, For Consumer, or For Consumer Use. Other types  
of CD-R or CD-RW discs, such as those available for computer-  
based CD recorders, will not work with this recorder.  
Pioneer has checked the following branded discs for compatibility  
with this recorder (as of May 2000):  
Never lift or move the unit during playback or recordingdiscs  
rotate at a high speed and may be damaged.  
• Eastman Kodak Company  
• FUJI PHOTO FILM CO., LTD.  
• Hitachi Maxell, Ltd.  
CD lens cleaner  
The compact disc recorder's pickup lens should not become dirty in  
normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to  
dirt or dust, consult your nearest Pioneer authorized service center.  
Although lens cleaners for compact disc recorders are commercially  
available, we do not recommend using them since some may  
damage the lens.  
• MITSUI CHEMICALS, INC.  
• TAIYO YUDEN CO., LTD.  
• TDK CORPORATION  
• VERBATIM CORPORATION  
• PIONEER CORPORATION  
• SONY CORPORATION  
• RITEK CORPORATION  
Power cord caution  
Handle the power cord by the plug part. Do not pull out the plug by  
tugging the cord, and never touch the power cord when your hands  
are wet, as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not  
place the unit, a piece of furniture, or other object on the power  
cord or pinch the cord in any other way. Never make a knot in the  
cord or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be routed so  
that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can  
cause a fire or give you an electric shock. Check the power cord  
once in a while. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer  
authorized service center or your dealer for a replacement.  
Sample discs from the following makers have also been checked for  
compatibility (as of May 2000), although at the time of writing  
discs branded under these names are not available.  
• Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation  
• RICOH COMPANY, LTD.  
Note: Discs from any of the above makers may also be sold under  
different brand names.

Recording copyright material  
The price of a consumer-use disc includes a copyright fee that has  
been paid to the copyright owner (in countries where the copyright  
fee collection system has been established based on their respective  
copyright laws). This means that you can use these discs to record  
music and other material for your personal use. If you want to use  
a disc for anything other than personal use, you must get  
permission from the copyright owner (note that copyright laws vary  
from country to country; check the copyright-related laws in your  
particular country for more information).

Recording and finalizing discs  
Unlike other recording media, recordable CDs have a number of  
distinct states, and what you can do with a disc depends on the  
current state of the disc. Figure 1. (right) shows the three states—  
blank, partially recorded, and finalizedand summarizes what’s  
possible () and impossible ( ) in each.  
* Once the CD-RW has been erased, it becomes recordable  
again and skip IDs can be set and cleared.  
** In general, current CD players cannot play CD-RW discs.  
However, this situation may change.  
The process of finalization fixes the contents of a CD-R in place for  
good by creating a Table of Contents (TOC, for short) at the  
beginning of the disc. This tells a CD player exactly what's on the  
disc and where to find it. Once a CD-R is finalized, further  
recording and other changes become impossible. The CD recorder  
and other CD players treat a finalized disc as an ordinary playback-  
only CD. (See page 31 for more information on finalizing CD-Rs.)  
Playing partially recorded discs  
Partially recorded discs (discs which contain recorded material but  
have not yet been finalized) can be played in the 3-CD changer of  
this unit with the following limitations:  
• It will take longer than usual to read the disc when you load  
it and start playback.  
CD-rewritable discs can be finalized in the same way as CD-R discs,  
but even after finalization, the disc can still be erased and used over  
again. Remember that CD-RW discs can only be played on players  
that are specifically designed to play CD-RW discs: most home CD  
players will not play these discs, even after the disc has been  
finalized. (See page 30 for more information on finalizing CD-RWs.)  
• When the partially recorded disc is stopped, the display will  
not show any disc time information. During playback, only  
track elapsed time is displayed; you cannot switch to any  
other display mode.  
• If you play a CD-RW from which tracks have been erased,  
you may still hear the erased tracks and the disc may not  
play correctly.  
• It may not be possible to play an unfinalized disc if there is  
very little blank space left.

Press CD=CD-R START (REC THIS).  
The recorder automatically copies at double speed, so if  
you're listening to the recording as it's being made it will  
sound a little strange!  
Although the PDR-W37 has many advanced recording features,  
duplicating a CD is pretty much a one-touch operation. Before  
starting, make sure that the recorder is connected to your amplifer  
and that everything is plugged in to a power outlet.  
After the CD in the changer has finished playing, the  
recorder will finalize the CD-R to make it playable on most  
ordinary CD players (for more information on this process,  
turn to page 7). This process takes just a few minutes after  
the CD has been copied.  
For detailed information on other recording features, see chapters  
5, 6, 8, and 9.

Press the POWER button to switch  
on.  
Remove the disc from the recorder before switching off.

currently playing in the changer. Make sure there is a CD-R or CD-  
RW in the recorder, then simply press CD=CD-R START (REC  
THIS) while the track is playing, and the CD changer will jump to  
the beginning of the track and the CD-R starts recording. The  
recorder stops automatically at the end of the track.

Introduction  
Recording CDs from the disc changer has several advantages over  
recording from an external CD player.  
3
Press REC MODE.  
The display shows DISC REC.  
If you want to switch the copying speed, do so here. The  
default is 2x speed. See Changing the recording speed on  
page 28 to change it.  
• Double speed recording lets you record a disc in half the  
regular time.  
• Automatic spacing when individual tracks are recorded.  
• Automatic SCMS copying makes sure that, whenever  
possible, you'll get a digital copy. In the event of a disc  
preventing digital copying with SCMS, the link beween the  
changer and the CD-R automatically switches to analog.

If you want the disc finalized after  
recording, press FINALIZE.  
The FINALIZE indicator blinks.  
Remember: Finalizing a CD-R fixes the tracks on the  
disc—you can't record anything else on to the disc, but it  
does become playable on most ordinary CD players.  
Recording a CD  
If you want to duplicate a CD exactly as it is, the easiest way is to  
follow the steps in Quick CD recording on page 13. The instruc-  
tions here give you a little more control over the recording you  
make.  
Press the DISC (CD SELECT on the  
front panel) button for the disc you  
want to record.  
If you want to adjust the recording level, do so here. The  
default is 0dB. See Setting the recording level on page 28 to  
adjust it.

The recorder starts copying the disc. If FINALIZE is on, the

Copying track names to other tracks  
If you need to name several tracks with similar names—several  
parts of one suite, for example—you can name the first one using  
the procedure detailed above, then simply copy that name to the  
other tracks and edit them as required. This can save you a lot of  
time over naming each track individually. The recorder stores the  
last three names you've copied using the name clip function in its  
memory (up to 40 characters each). When you copy another track

Recording fade ins and fade outs  
Sometimes, for example if you're recording just an excerpt from  
something, it may be better to fade in the recording, then fade out  
again at the end, rather than start and end abruptly. You can also  
set longer or shorter fade times so that they match the fades on  
other songs in your mix. Note that you can’t record a fade in when  
in synchro recording mode (although you can record a fade out).  
Press FADER during recording to fade

After recording the fade out, the recorder goes into record-  
pause mode. This happens in either normal or synchro  
record mode.

material. When recording other sources, the recorder will start a  
new track if it detects more than 2 seconds of silence before the next  
sound on the source. You can adjust the level that the recorder  
regards as “silence” (see Setting the silence threshold below).

Setting the silence threshold  
Manually numbering tracks  
If you're recording from CD, MD, DCC or DAT, you can usually let  
the recorder number the tracks automatically as they change on  
the source material. When recording other digital or analog  
sources, the recorder will start a new track if it detects more than 2  
seconds of silence before the next sound on the source. However if  
you’re recording a noisy vinyl record or a classical recording with  
long quiet sections, the recorder may not always recognize the gap  
between tracks. For this reason you can adjust the level of sound  
that the recorder regards as “silence”.  
Although automatic track numbering is the default mode of the  
recorder, you can number tracks manually as recording is taking  
place. In some cases—such as recording from digital satellite or  
Laserdisc, or from an analog source—auto track numbering may  
not work reliably (in these cases, a new track is started after the  
recorder detects 2 seconds of silence before the next sound on the  
source), and it's better to use manual track numbering.  
Remember: It is not possible to edit track numbers after  
recording.  
Each input (analog, coaxial, and optical) has its own threshold  
level, which can be set independently.

Make sure automatic track number-  
ing is switched OFF.

You can use manual numbering in any record mode, but it  
is best suited to manual digital-input or analog-input  
recording (see page 41 for more on these recording modes).

Changing the recording speed  
If you aren't able to set track numbers automatically during  
recording (a radio program with interviews, for example), you  
might want to have the recorder start tracks after every three  
minutes or so. This will make it easier to listen back to sections of  
the recording at a later date. You can set the time increment to  
either one, three, or five minutes.  
The recorder defaults to double (x2) speed, but if you want to  
listen to the CD as it's recorded, single (x1) speed is better. This  
feature is only available when recording from the CD changer.

headphones. No signal is output from the digital outputs.  
Setting the recording level

Turn the jog dial (4 and ¢ on  
the remote) to change the time  
increment.  
When recording commercially produced CDs, the recording  
level has already been optimized and you don't need to change  
it. Boosting the level will generally result in distortion where  
there are peaks in the music. If you're recording a non-  
commercially produced CD that has been consistently under-  
recorded, you may need to boost the level.  
Press the jog dial to ENTER.  
If you're putting together a mix CD of tracks from different discs  
you might find that some tracks sound louder than others  
because average volumes vary. To even this out you may want  
to reduce the recording level of some tracks.  
This feature is only available when recording from the CD  
changer.  
Note: If you are recording DTS encoded audio CDs or HDCD  
format CDs, the digital recording level must be set to 0dB for  
recording.

Before you can play a CD-R on an ordinary CD player, the disc must

want it before you start.

If a CD-R is loaded, the CD-R indicator changes to CD.  
CD-RW discs can also be finalized, although you can still erase the  
disc afterward and reuse it, so it's not anything like as final as it is  
with a CD-R disc. A finalized CD-RW disc can only be played on a  
CD player that is compatible with CD-RW discs (at present, there  
are very few of these).  
If a CD-RW is loaded, the finalize indicator lights in the  
display.

effect during finalization. If, however, the recorder hasn't  
managed to finalize the disc within 10 minutes, you can  
abort the operation by pressing 7. If you do this, the disc  
won't be playable on an ordinary CD player.

Introduction  
Monitoring a source for recording  
Using the monitor facility you can listen to a source connected to  
the analog or digital inputs. This is especially useful for cueing up  
for the next recording and also for checking that tracks are starting  
in the proper places during automatic track numbering.  
Use the various recording modes described here when you're  
recording from a component connected to the recorder either  
directly via an optical or coaxial digital connection, or via your  
amplifier to the the analog line in jacks.  
For most sources, both analog and digital, it's convinient to use  
one of the synchro recording modes: 1-track, all track or all track  
with finalize.  
1
Stop playback of any discs playing in  
this unit.  
Should your particular recording application need it, there's also a  
manual recording mode.

Start playing the source.  
When recording from external sources, bear in mind the following:  
Press INPUT to select the input to be  
monitored.  
• Most CDs, MDs, DCCs and DATs are digital-copy protected,  
which generally means that you can make a copy of the  
original, but not a copy of a copy.  
Pressing INPUT repeatedly switches the active input:  
ANALOG OPTICAL 1 OPTICAL 2 COAXIAL  
• When recording incompatible or copy-proteced digital  
sources, use the analog inputs.  
The recorder's display indicates the current input.  
• When recording digitally from DAT, the start ID track  
markers on the tape may be after the start of the track.  
Check the tape you’re planning to record and manually  
insert new start IDs before recording.  
4
The display shows monitoring infor-  
mation.  
If the source is digital, the display indicates the type of  
source if it recognizes it (CD, MD, DVD, DAT, DCC) and the  
sampling rate (32kHz, 44kHz, 48kHz). If the digital signal is  
incompatible or copy-protected, the display shows  
Can’t REC.  
These points are covered in more detail in Additional Information  
on pages 43–44.  
• When automatic track numbering has been selected, the  
TRACK indicator will light for 2 seconds at track start points  
(except digital formats listed above, where track numbers  
change with those on the source material).  
See Setting the silence threshold on page 27 if you find the  
recorder can’t recognize the gaps between tracks.  
The display shows MONITOR.  
The level meter shows the recording level. Adjust using the  
REC VOL knob.

Discs to avoid  
Handling discs  
When holding CDs of any type, take care not to leave fingerprints,  
dirt or scratches on the disc surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by  
the center hole and edge. Damaged or dirty discs can affect  
playback and/or recording performance. Take care also not to  
scratch the label side of the disc. Although not as fragile as the  
recording side, scratches can still result in a disc becoming  
unusable.  
CDs spin at high speed inside the recorder during playback and  
recording. If you can see that a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or  
otherwise damaged, don't risk using it in your CD recorder—you  
could end up damaging the unit.  
This recorder is designed for use with conventional, fully circular  
CDs only. Use of shaped CDs is not recommended for this product.  
Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of  
shaped CDs.  
Should a disc become marked with fingerprints, dust, etc., clean  
using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to the  
outside edge as shown in the diagram below. If necessary, use a  
cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially available CD cleaning  
kit to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or  
other cleaning agents, including products designed for cleaning  
vinyl records.  
Recording CDs  
This recorder is designed to let you make extremely high quality  
digital recordings onto recordable compact discs. For flexibility, you  
can use either rewritable discs (CD-RW) or write-once discs (CD-R).  
For more general information on the discs you can and can’t use  
with this recorder, see About CD, CD-R and CD-RW Discs on page  
6. The overview on these pages gives you an idea of what's possible,  
and also provides guidance on what to avoid and things to be  
careful of when recording.  
Wipe lightly from the  
center of the disc  
using straight strokes.  
Don’t wipe the disc  
surface using circular  
strokes.  
Digital and analog sources  
Storing discs  
This recorder has both an optical and a coaxial digital input, as  
well as a pair of analog inputs. Use a digital input when:  
Although CD, CD-R and CD-RW discs are more durable than vinyl  
records, you should still take care to handle and store discs  
correctly. When you're not using a disc, return it to its case and  
store upright. Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot  
environments (including under direct sunlight).  
• recording from a CD/MD/DAT/DCC player or digital satellite  
with a digital output.  
Use the analog inputs when:  
When labeling discs, use a felt-tip pen sold for marking CDs. Don't  
glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-point  
pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could all  
damage the disc.  
• recording from a digital component that does not have a  
digital output (such as some portable equipment).  
• recording from an incompatible digital source (such as a  
high sampling-rate DAT tape).  
For more detailed care information see the instructions that come  
with discs.  
• recording a digital copy-protected source (see below).  
• recording from any analog source (radio broadcasts, vinyl  
records, cassette tapes, etc.).  
43  
9 Additional Information  
To avoid these problems, we recommend recording start IDs on the  
DAT manually, if possible. Refer to the instructions for your DAT  
recorder for more information.  
Digital recording restrictions  
This unit has been designed exclusively for recording and playback  
of audio discsyou can’t record other CD formats, such as  
computer CD-ROMs or Dolby Digital (AC-3). If you record from a  
disc format such as CD+Graphics, Video CD, or other format that  
includes both digital audio and video or text, you will only be able  
to record the audio part of the disc.  
You might also encounter problems if you try to synchro-record all  
tracks from a DAT that is set to program play. If you want to record  
a DAT in program play mode, use the 1-track synchro recording  
modesee page 39 for how to do this.  
In addition to standard audio CDs, this recorder will record DTS  
encoded audio CDs and HDCD format CDs. However, the recording  
level must be set to 0dB.  
Digital signal interruptions  
Sources of signal interruption include power or source component  
failure, accidental disconnection of the interconnect cord, and  
interruption of digital satellite broadcasts. In all these cases, if the  
signal resumes within about five seconds, the result will just be a  
blank section on the disc. If the interruption is longer than five  
seconds, the recorder displays the error message: D.IN UN-  
LOCK and recording is paused.  
Almost all commercial digital source material is protected by  
copyright laws. For this reason, this recorder uses special consumer-  
use blank CD-R and CD-RW discs on which a copyright fee has  
already been paid. A further restriction is SCMS (Serial Copy  
Management System). This generally allows just one generation of  
digital recording. In other words, you can make a digital recording  
from an original source (such as a commercial CD), but you can’t  
then make further digital recordings from that copy. Most digital  
recording equipment uses the SCMS system, including CD-R and  
MD recorders, and DAT decks. You may also find that you can’t  
record certain DVD discs as the digital output of the DVD player can  
be disabled by the disc.  
Power interruptions  
Never switch off this recorder while it's copying, recording,  
finalizing, or while the display shows PMA REC (Program  
Memory Area Recording). If there's a power failure, or you  
accidently disconnect the power from the wall outlet while  
recording is in process, you'll lose at least part of the recording.  
After recording, always remove the disc from the recorder before  
switching the power off. Failure to do this could result in you losing  
some of the recorded material on the disc.  
If you do encounter SCMS or other digital-copy restrictions, you  
can always record through the analog inputs.  
Digital recording from DAT  
If you’re recording a DAT tape that was recorded using the DAT  
machine's auto ID function, the IDs on the tape are slightly after  
the beginning of the actual recording. This can cause problems for  
the CD recorder:  
Miscellaneous information  
• The minimum recordable time is four seconds. Even if you  
try and record something shorter than this, the track that  
the recorder creates will be four seconds.  
• The start of the track may not be recorded.  
• The maximum number of tracks on a disc is 99.  
• The track number will be recorded on the disc after the start  
of the track  
• The beginning of the next track on the DAT is  
unintentionally recorded

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a  
lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from  
loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this  
manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s  
ConsumerElectronicsGrouprecommendyouavoidprolonged  
exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is  
included for your protection.  
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just  
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now  
it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and  
excitementyourequipment offers. Thismanufacturerandthe  
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics  
Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by  
playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through  
loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion-and,  
most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
