Synchro-Recording A Cd To Cd-R Or Cd-Rw - Sony RCD-W2000ES Operating Instructions (primary manual) Operating Instructions Manual

Tips
• To play the recorded CD on DECK A or another
CD player, perform finalization (page 30).
• To record your favorite tracks from the CDs in
DECK A, make a program (page 19).
• If the track marks are not marked properly while
making an analog recording from an external
component, see page 29.

Notes on recording
• You cannot record over existing material. The unit
automatically starts recording from the end of any
existing material.
• Make sure that the remaining recordable time on the
CD-R or CD-RW is longer than the playing time of
a source CD, especially if you want to record all the
tracks.
• If a message appears in the display, refer to
"Messages" on page 37.
• Recording automatically stops if recording is
paused for more than about 3 minutes.
Note on a copy protection
Some commercial CD may contain a copy
protection code that will prevent the disc from
being recorded. In this case, "Cannot Copy"
and either "C12" or "C41" will appear
alternately in the display.
Do not move the unit or disconnect
the unit from power source in the
following situation. Recording may
not complete successfully.
• When "Finalize," "Unfinalize," "Erase," or "OPC"
appears in the display:
The unit is currently updating the table of contents
(TOC).

The unit is currently updating the track information.
Synchro-Recording a CD
to CD-R or CD-RW
You can easily make digital recordings from a
CD to a CD-R or CD-RW. Before recording,
see page 21.
There are 2 types of Synchro-Recording.
Make-Disc Synchro-Recording
(Make Disc On)
Records a CD in the original order of its track
number regardless of the selected play mode,
and finalizes the disc. Be sure to use a disc that
has not been recorded. ("Blank Disc" should
appear in the display when you put the disc in
DECK B.)
To use Make-Disc Synchro-Recording, set
"Make Disc" in the Menu to "On" beforehand
(page 36).
• CD text (if contained in the disc) is recorded
automatically. You can label the disc name
or track name (up to 70 characters each, and
40 tracks per disc).
Note
When DECK A is in the Program mode, Make-Disc
Synchro-Recording is canceled regardless of the
menu setting.
Synchro-Recording
(Make Disc Off)
• After recording, you must finalize the disc.
Until the disc is properly finalized, it cannot
be played on any CD players. See
"Finalizing a CD-R or CD-RW" on page 30.
• CD text contained in the disc is not
automatically recorded on the disc. To label
tracks/discs, see "Labeling Tracks/Discs"
(page 33).
