1 − Introduction
In this manual, we use the term “recordable” disc to describe a
CD-R or CD-RW disc that has not been finalized, i.e. further
recording is possible on the disc.
Recordable discs
About finalizing
Although audio data may be written on a CD-R or CD-RW disc,
a standard CD player will not be able to read the data (i.e. play
back the audio) until a final *TOC has been written at the start of
the disc.
*TOC:Table of contents
Information of recorded data, which contains titles, starting
and ending addresses, and etc..
The process of writing this table of contents is known as “final-
izing”. Once this has been done, no further data can be written to
the disc. See “Finalizing” on page 28 for details. In the case of a
CD-RW disc which has been finalized, the whole of the disc may
be erased, or the disc may be “refreshed”, and the disc re-used.
In addition, a CD-RW disc that has been finalized may be “unfi-
nalized”, i.e. only the TOC is removed. This allows further tracks
to be recorded to the disc, provided that there is space on the disc.
About CD-R and CD-RW discs
CD-R discs can be recorded once only. Once they have been used
for recording, they cannot be erased or re-recorded. However, if
space is available on the disc, additional material can be record-
ed. The pack-aging of CD-R discs will include one of the follow-
ing logos:
By contrast, a CD-RW disc can be used in much the same way as
a CD-R disc, but the last track or tracks recorded can be erased
before the disc has been “finalized”, and the space on the disc
can be re- used for other recordings. The packaging of CD-RW
discs will include the logo one of the following logos:
High Speed
However, you should note that an audio CD created using a
CD-RW disc may not play back satisfactorily on every audio CD
player. It will, naturally, be playable on the CD-RW900MKII.
This is in no way a limitation of the CD-RW900MKII itself, but
of the difference between the different types of media and the
methods used to read them.
There are precautions that you should take when handling CD-R
and CD-RW discs.
•
Avoid touching the recording (non-label) side of a disc on
which you will be recording. Recording on a disc requires
a cleaner surface than playing back, and fingerprints,
grease, etc. can cause errors in the recording process.
•
CD-R and CD-RW discs are sensitive to the effects of
heat and ultraviolet rays. It is important that they are not
stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall on
them, and which is away from sources of heat such as
radiators or heat-generating electrical devices.
•
Always store CD-R and CD-RW discs in their cases to
avoid dirt and dust accumulating on their surfaces.
•
When labeling CD-R and CD-RW discs, always use a
soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information.
Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this may
cause damage to the recorded side.
•
Always keep the recording sides of the discs away from
grime and dust to avoid a reduction in sound quality.
To clean a disc, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth from
the center towards the outside edge. Do not use thinner,
gasoline, benzene or LP cleaning fluid, as these will
damage the disc and cause the disc unplayable.
•
Do not put labels or protective sheets on the discs and do
not use any protective coating spray.
•
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a
CD-R and CD-RW discs, read the precautions supplied
with the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly.
