●
Could the CD be upside down?
➔
Insert the CD with the label facing upward.
●
Could you be attempting to record on a CD-R/RW disc that has already
been finalized?
➔
Use a blank or un-finalized CD-R/RW disc.
➔
If you want to record on a CD-R/RW disc that has already been finalized,
you'll need to remove finalization so that the disc can be recorded to
again.
●
Is it possible that the maximum recordable time or number of tracks
(maximum of 99 tracks) has already been exceeded?
➔
If there are unwanted tracks on the disc, delete them before you
continue recording. (This is only possible on a CD-RW disc.)
●
Could you be attempting to record or erase a CD-RW disc more times
than it is capable of?
➔
A CD-RW disc can be recorded and erased approximately 1,000 times.
●
Could you be attempting to record an extremely short performance?
➔
You can't record for less than four seconds.
●
Are you using a generic CD-R/RW disc?
➔
Use a CD-R/RW disc from a recommended manufacturer.
●
Did you finalize the disc after recording?
➔
Execute the Finalize operation.
●
Is your CD player able to play back CD-R or CD-RW discs?
➔
If your CD player does not support CD-R or CD-RW discs, they may not
play back correctly.
●
Is the CD-2e powered up?
➔
Turn on the power of the CD-2e.
➔
If a power failure has occurred, you can use the emergency eject hole to
open the disc tray manually.
●
Could you be using a high-speed compatible CD-RW disc?
➔
If you're using a high-speed compatible CD-RW disc, performing the
following operations will cause the disc to rotate at high speed,
producing a greater level of mechanical noise. This is not a malfunction.
• When you stop recording
• When you delete a track
If you find the mechanical operating noise of the CD-R/RW drive
objectionable, please use an 8x compatible CD-R disc or a 1-4x
compatible CD-RW disc.
Cause and Action
• When you assign a song number
• When you finalize
