mal, and both Play/Pause Indicators GB

appear in the display, press any

Play

Button

to start the dub.

While the dub is in progress, you will see the

track numbers and running time increase as

the disc is copied. The Level Indicators

will

also flash and the record levels may be adjusted

(up to +/-3dB) also during the dubbing process

(see chapter Record Levels on page 23). It is pos-

sible to listen to the source disc while it is being

dubbed by selecting the appropriate input (ana-

log or digital) for the Play Deck on your receiver,

preamp or processor.

Important Note: When a high-speed (x2 or x4)

dub is being made (not possible with an MP3

disc), you will hear the playback from the analog

CDP Outputs

at the faster speed.

Fast speed playback increases the pitch of a

sound, and when played back at high volume

levels this may damage your speakers. DO NOT

use high volume levels when listening to high-

speed dubs while they are in progress.

The dub will stop automatically when the source

disc has played through to the end. After the dub

is finished, the Time/Message Display

will

show an UPDATE message, and then return to

normal operation.To manually stop a dubbing

operation, press the Stop button

Ób

for

either deck.

As with all recorded CD-R/CD-RW discs, the disc

must be finalized before it can be played in other

machines. See page 24 for instructions on disc

finalization.

Notes on Dubbing:

• If you wish to make a dub with selected tracks

or the tracks in a different order from the origi-

nal disc, omit tracks on a disc, or make a dub

that mixes tracks from different discs, create a

Program-Playback List before pressing the

Dubbing Button

)

. Instructions for creating

a program list may be found on page 19.

• Dubs containing program lists may only be

made at the x1 or x2 speed. If you attempt to

make a Programmed Dub at the x4 speed, the

unit will automatically select the x2 speed.

• The Pause buttons do not operate while a dub

is in progress.

• Track numbers 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 varia-

tions in the spin speed of each drive and a

pause added at the end of the recording, but

this is normal. 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 an analog copy.

• When a dub is made from an external digital

source that has a sample rate other than

44.1kHz, such as some modes of MiniDisc or

DAT, DVD players and DVB receivers, the CDR

30’s built-in sample rate converter will automati-

cally convert the digital signal to 44.1kHz for

proper recording of a standard CD Audio disc.

When the sample rate converter is in use, the

Sample Rate Converter Indicator

will

light.

• Remember that MP3 discs may only be copied to

the conventional CD Audio format and only at

normal speed.

• So when dubbing an MP3 disc, the total run-

ning time of the material on the MP3 disc may

exceed the capacity of the record disc, since

the compressed file structure of the MP3 for-

mat allows over ten hours to be recorded on a

disc, while most CD-R discs have a time limit of

74 minutes.

Recording From an External Source

Digital recordings can be made only from a digi-

tal source, connected to eigther the Coaxial

or Optical

inputs on the CDR30,

while analog recordings can be made from any

source, connected to the Analog inputs

Recordings from external sources can be made in

three modes: Sync, Manual or Auto mode.

• The Sync mode (see next chapter) starts and

stops the recording automatically and increases

the track numbers syncronously with the tracks

on the source.This mode should be used with

digital recordings from external sources, pro-

viding CD standard conforming track informa-

tion (see below) like normal CD, many DVD

(with CDs only) and most MD players.

• The Auto mode for either digital or analog

recordings must be started manually, but the

track number will be increased automatically

after the CDR 30 receives silence for 3 seconds

syncronously with the music starting. When the

source is paused or stopped, after 3 or 10 sec-

onds (depends on the source used) the record-

ing will stop.Also after 10 seconds of silence

(analog or digital sources) the recording will

stop.This mode is recommended for recordings

from digital sources, providing no CD standard

conforming track information (see below), like

some DVD and MD players, DAT, DVB receivers

and other digital sources with a sample rate

between 32kHz and 96kHz. To activate the

Auto mode, press the Auto/

Manual Track Increment Button

once

and note that the Manual Track Increment

Indicator

goes out.

• The default mode is Manual as indicated by

the Manual Track Increment Indicator

In that mode for either digital or analog record-

ings, the recording must be started and

stopped manually and you must add track

numbers manually by pressing the Track

Increment Button

when you wish to

increase the track number.As the correct

operating of the track increment in the Auto

mode (see above) depends on the length of

music pauses and the level of the residual

noise during these pauses, what may be critical

with analog sources, we recommend the

Manual mode for all recordings from analog

sources.To activate the Manual mode (unless

selected already by default), press the

Auto/Manual button

and note that the

Manual indicator

goes on.

As outlined above recordings from analog

sources should be made with the Manual mode.

But the recording mode for use with a digital

source depends on whether the source has CD

standard track information or not.To find out for

the first time, whether the source provides that

information, place an eraseable CD-RW audio

disc in the Record Deck

. Next, select the

digital input connected with that source by press-

ing the Input Select Button

. Pressing the

button will cycle between the input choices,

which will be shown in the Time/Message

Display

as COAXIAL REAR,COAXI-

AL FRONT, OPTICAL REAR, OPTI-

CAL FRONT or ANALOG. In addition, an

Input Indicator

will light to show the

selected input.

Then press the Sync Record

button twice

until ALLwill be shown in the Time/Message

Display

and examine whether the CDR30

starts the recording automatically when the

source is started. After min. 3 seconds skip the

source forward to the next track and examine if

the CDR30 increases the track number in its

Record Deck Display

under the Track

Indicator

. If both is the case your digital

source is CD standard conforming and you can

use the Sync mode with it, otherwise the Auto

mode should be used.

Now after you are informed about the source

type you´ll use, you can prepare for a recording

with the optimal record mode. Select the appro-

priate input for your source (if not already

selected) and the appropriate mode Sync (see

next chapter), Auto or Manual as recommended

above.
