Starting tracks in time increments

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.
Note: The time increment will default to
stopped; auto track numbering is turned off; power is switched off.
1 Press MENU/DELETE.

increment.

Changing the recording speed

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.

Setting the recording level

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.
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.
