Making an audio CD

This section describes how to make an audio CD (CD-DA) using a CD-RW/CD-R disc from mixed-down materials
created by the internal mixdown mode. See details for the internal mixdown mode on page 79.
The "Save PGM" menu in the Setup mode, which is used for saving song data, is also used for making an audio CD.

<Note>
If an audio CD is made using a CD-RW disc, it can be played back only by a player that supports CD-RW playback. You
cannot playback such a disc by a conventional CD player that does not support CD-RW playback.
In the following operations, we assume that there are
one or more programs which are mixed down by the
internal mixdown mode on the current drive.
<Note>
Key operations of the VF160EX should be done after com-
pleting access to a CD-RW/CD-R disc.
1. After turning on the power of the VF160EX, load a
non-recorded disc to the CD-R/RW drive.
2. Press the [SETUP] key to enter the Setup mode.
3. Use the [JOG] dial to select (highlight) the "Save PGM"
menu and press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The display shows the screen for selecting the device to
which the data is saved. "IDE" flashes.
4. While "IDE" is flashing, press the [ENTER/YES] key.
By pressing the [ENTER/YES] key, the display shows the
CD-R/RW drive name, and then changes to the save mode
select screen where "Bkup" (Backup) flashes.

Flashing
When making an audio CD using the VF160EX, mixed-
down materials on the current drive are recorded to a
CD-RW/CD-R disc (by the CD-DA format).
Only data between the CLIPBOARD IN and CLIPBOARD
OUT points of the mixed-down program is recorded to a
CD-RW/CD-R disc. You can record more than one material
to a disc successively.
To carry out making an audio CD, select "CD-DA".
If you need to change the copy protection setting (the
default setting is "OFF") and event enable setting (the
default setting is "ON"), select "Setup" (for setting writ-
ing conditions). If you make an audio CD without chang-
ing the copy protection setting, skip steps 5 and 6 below
and go to step 7.
