Introduction to CD
recording
The PDR-609 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 10. The following 2-page overview
gives you some idea of what the PDR-609
is capable of, and also provides guidance
on what to avoid and things to be careful
of when recording. We strongly recom-
mend that you read these pages fully
before proceeding to the more detailed
instructions on the following pages.
Digital recording
restrictions
This unit has been designed exclusively for
recording and playback of audio discs—
you 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.
In addition to standard audio CDs, this
recorder will record DTS encoded audio
CDs and HDCD format CDs (in this case,
the recording level must be set to 0dB).
Almost all commercial digital source
material is protected by copyright laws. For
this reason, the PDR-609 uses special
consumer-use blank CD-R and CD-RW
discs on which a copyright fee has already
been paid. A further restriction comes in
the form of SCMS (an acronym for Serial
Copy Management System).
