What is the data type
The CDX-1 allows you to specify the data type when a CD-RW disc is formatted. This
enables you to select the combination of audio quality and recording time that is
most suitable for the material you are recording.
The following data types can be selected.
STANDARD:
Of the three types, this provides the highest audio quality. Normally you should
select this type.
LONG1:
This type allows longer recording than "STANDARD." It is suitable for recording
live performances.
LONG2:
This allows the longest recording time of the three types.
<Recording time>
The times that can be recorded on one CD-RW disc for each data type are listed
below.

of tracks used for recording. For example, even if you use only one track for recording, the amount
of time available for recording will be the same as when using all eight tracks.
