REMARKS ABOUT RECORDING

You will soon discover how easy it is to make your own CDs.
Nevertheless, it is advisable to use a CD-RW disc for your first
try. We will describe:
- Digital or analog manual recording
- Synchronized start with CD player (Digital or Analog
recording)
• If the disc is a CD-RW and is already finalized you must
unfinalize it first.
• The recording procedure is the same for CD-Rs and CD-
RWs.
• If the disc already contains recordings, the CD-Recorder will
automatically search for the end of the last track, so that
recording can start from there.
• There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left on the
disc, otherwise you will not be able to enter record standby
mode.
• The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) only allows
digital recording under specific conditions:
- This means that it is not possible to make a digital copy
from a digital copy.
- Analog recording is always possible !
- The number of recordings from the original is unlimited.

• A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc. Minimum
allowable track length is 4 seconds.
Important:
If you want to play the recorded CD-R disc on any regular CD
player, it must first be finalized. (See FINALIZING/
UNFINALIZING page 10.)
- Finalized CD-RW discs play only on CD-RW compatible
CD players.
- The DR110 cannot record a CD-text when recording the
CD which has a CD-text. DR110 cannot record a CD-
TEXT even if you use the system connection.
- Do not turn the power switch off during RECORD,
FINALIZE or ERASE operations. It may lead to the CD-
R(W) disc not being able to be used.
