■Discs that can be used for recording on
this unit
Be sure to use only CD-R and CD-RW discs made by reliable
manufacturers.
CD-R and CD-RW digital audio discs that display either of the
following marks can be used with this unit.
■Discs that can be used for recording
•CD-R discs can only be recorded on once, and the recorded
material cannot be erased.
•CD-RW discs can be recorded on, have the recorded material

CD-R disc as “79-minute CD-R disc”.
■Finalization of CD-R/CD-RW discs
To play back CD-R discs on a standard CD player and CD-RW
discs on CD-RW-compatible players, you need to perform the
process known as “finalization”. In the finalization process, the
Table of Contents (TOC) is written onto the discs.
Finalized CD-R discs
•CD-R discs can be played on a standard CD player.
•Further recording onto CD-R discs is not possible.
•Some CD players may not play back the finalized CD-R discs
properly due to differences in the playback system of different
manufacturers.
Finalized CD-RW discs
•CD-RW discs cannot be played on a standard CD player. CD-RW
discs can be played back on CD-RW-compatible players such as
this unit.
•Tracks written on CD-RW discs can be erased, and additional
tracks can be recorded after the TOC has been erased.
■Erasure or loss of data
Yamaha and suppliers accept no liability for the loss of data written
on the HDD and CD-R or CD-RW discs, or any problems caused as
a result of using this unit. As a precaution, it is recommended that
the discs are tested after they have been recorded on. Furthermore,
under no circumstances do Yamaha and suppliers guarantee the
reliability of the discs.
■Discs that can be played back
In addition to CD-R and CD-RW digital audio discs described
previously, commercially available CDs bearing the marks shown
below can also be played on this unit. If you use the CDs that do
not meet CD standards, this unit may operate properly.
■Playback of the CD-R disc copied with the
Audio Master Quality Recording mode
The Audio Master Quality Recording mode enables you to create a
CD with high quality sounds by increasing the linear velocity when
copying. The CD-R discs copied with this mode meet the CD
standards and can be played on a standard CD player. However,
some CD recorders may not play back these CD-R discs properly.
■Playback on DVD players
Before playing back a finalized CD-R or CD-RW discs on a DVD
player, please check whether the DVD player is compatible with
CD-R or CD-RW discs or not. Refer to the owner’s manual of the
DVD player for more information. CD-R or CD-RW discs cannot
be played on a DVD player that is not compatible with CD-R or
CD-RW discs.

NOTES ON DISCS
■ Handling of discs
Heed the following notes on handling of discs not to create any
cause for a recording failure, a loss of the recorded data, or a
malfunction of this unit.
•This compact disc recorder is designed for use with CDs
(including 8cm [3”] discs) bearing the following marks only.
Never attempt to load any other type of disc into this unit.
•CDs are not subjected to wear during play. However if the disc is
handled improperly, damage may be created on the disc to
adversely affect the disc’s play.
•When writing on the label side of CD-R or CD-RW discs, use an
oil-based felt-tipped pen.
•Do not use cleaning discs or warped discs. All of these could
damage this unit.
•Although playback of CDs is generally not affected by small
particles of dust or fingerprints on their playing surface, dust,
fingerprints, small scratches and direct sunlight on the recording
surface of a CD-R or CD-RW disc may make recording impos-
sible. Therefore, for optimal performance of the recorder and for
long-term enjoyment of your CD collection, handle discs
correctly as outlined in the following guidelines.
1. Hold discs by touching only the edges or center hole. When
setting/removing a disc to/from the disc tray, be careful not to
damage the disc surface.
2. When a disc is not currently being used, remove it from the
recorder and store in an appropriate case.
3. With proper disc maintenance, cleaning should not be
necessary. However, should cleaning be required, wipe by
using a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe with a circular motion;
wipe straight outward from the center.
•Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of disc
cleaner, record spray, antistatic spray or liquid, or any other
chemical-based liquid, because such substances might irreparably
damage the disc’s surface.
•Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature, or high
humidity for a long period of time, because this might warp or
otherwise damage the disc.
■ To prevent a malfunction of this
unit
•Do not use any non-standard shaped CDs (heart, flower shaped,
etc.) available on the market, because they are off-balance in their
weight.
If a non-standard shaped CD is loaded into this unit, it may create
problems such as improper playback, opening the disc tray,
creating an usual noise, and this unit’s failure.
•Be sure to use a felt-tip pen or similar writing tool when writing
on the label side of the disc. Do not use a ball-point pen, pencil, or
other hard-tipped writing tool, as these may damage the disc and
may adversely affect further recording on the disc.
•Do not use the discs with glue left on their surface. It may get
stuck in this unit or create damage to this unit.
•When using an 8cm (3”) disc, do not place a normal 12cm (5”)
disc on top of it.
•Do not use the discs printed with commercially available label
printers.
No!

SELECTING THE GROUP OR TRACK MODE
■ Data on the HDD
The data recorded onto the built-in HDD of this unit will be numbered and organized based on the following concept:
Group
A collection of disc(s), album(s), and a bookmark are generically
called “group”.
Disc
One consequent recording is counted and numbered as one unit of
disc. The HDD of this unit can record 999 discs at maximum.
(However, the number of discs to be created may be less than 999
for the space availability on the HDD.) The maximum length of one
disc on the HDD is 179 minutes 59 seconds.
Album
A group of the source programs selected from different discs and
recorded as the playlist is called “album”. “Album” corresponds to
the “program” function (to play back favorite tracks in the desired
order) of a standard CD player. This unit can record 999 albums at
maximum onto the HDD.
Bookmark
This unit can make a temporary bookmark on a favorite track as

RECORDING FROM AN EXTERNAL COMPONENT ONTO THE HDD
■ Using an external timer to record
Notes on recording time setting
• This unit is not equipped with the clock function. Use an external timer when making a timer recording.
• It may take 30 seconds to 1 minute after the power of this unit is turned on by an external timer until an actual recording starts. (This length
of time is subject to change depending on the condition.) During this time, no recording is made. Therefore set the time that is 2-minute
earlier than the starting time of the program to be recorded for turning on this unit.
•As a characteristic of an HDD recorder, it is necessary to store information to control audio data as well as audio data itself. This informa-
tion is normally recorded when recording is stopped. Therefore if the power of this unit is turned off before recording is stopped, no
information to control audio data and no audio data are stored. Set the time that is longer than 3-minute after the program to be recorded
finishes for turning off this unit by an external timer.
•Set the time that is 2-minute longer than actual recording time for the total recording time.
Following chart indicates the time flow when this unit makes timer recordings.
Example: To record the program that starts at 9:00 and ends at 10:00.
•Set the external timer to be turned on at 8:58.
•Set the external timer to be turned off after 10:03.
• Set 1 hour 2 minutes for the total recording time on this unit.
Memo
• Actual recorded material includes a little more than the set amount of time at both beginning and end of the recording. Delete unnecessary
parts using the editing operation.
• Recording will be stopped if copy protected digital signals are input while timer recording is being made.
• If you set the total recording time over 179 minutes 59 seconds, recording will be made extending several discs. To play the recorded
materials sequentially, select “Style All” as the play style (P.20).

GLOSSARY
Album
An album is a unit used while playing back or recording audio
signals on this unit. For detailed information, see “Data on the
HDD” (P.16).
Audio Master Quality Recording
Audio Master Quality Recording is a high quality recording mode
used to create an audio CD with its original quality. By minimizing
the jitter that subtly degrades the audio quality or even causes data
transmission failure, Audio Master Quality Recording actualizes a
clear sound close to the original sound.
Bookmark
A bookmark is a collection of audio tracks of your preference. You
can play back or record audio data using a bookmark, and an album
can be created from a bookmark. For detailed information, see
“Data on the HDD” (P.16) or “Data on CDs” (P.17).
CD TEXT
CD TEXT is text information (album title, track title, etc) recorded
on CDs and can be read only with a CD player or CD-ROM drive
that supports CD TEXT.
Digital Move
Digital move implies moving audio data recorded on the HDD onto
CD-R/RW discs. The audio data once digital moved onto CD-R/RW
discs are erased from the HDD. Because digital move is regarded as
one generation of digital copying, audio data can be digitally copied
from CDs onto the HDD and then from the HDD onto CD-R/RW
discs. However, audio data cannot be copied onto several CD-R/
RW discs at the same time.
Disc
A disc is a unit used while playing back or recording audio signals
on this unit. For detailed information, see “Data on the HDD”
(P.16) or “Data on CDs” (P.17).
Emphasis
Emphasis is a recording mode used to improve the quality of audio
data. Emphasis turns the volume of the upper register up before
recording and down while playing back, resulting in a decrease in
the noise level of the upper register.
Finalize
Finalize is a process to enable audio data recorded onto CD-R/RW
discs to be played back on CD players or other CD-RW compatible
devices. An audio disc created on this unit must be finalized to be
played back on other playback devices.
Group
A group is a unit used while playing back or recording audio signals
on this unit and is a collective term for albums, discs and book-
marks. A group consists of several audio tracks. For detailed
information, see “Data on the HDD” (P.16) or “Data on CDs”
(P.17).
SCMS
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) is a system developed by
JASRAC (Japanese Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and
Producers) to prevent unlimited digital copying of CD’s and other
prerecorded media. In essence, SCMS prevents more than one
generation of digital copying (i.e. a copy of an SCMS copy-
protected source cannot be duplicated).
TOC
TOC (Table of Contents) is a disc index recorded on a finalized disc
and enables playback devices to distinguish audio tracks recorded
on the disc.
Track
A track is equivalent to one audio recording and is the smallest unit
used while playing back or recording audio signals on this unit. For
detailed information, see “Data on the HDD” (P.16) or “Data on
CDs” (P.17).
Track Mark
A track mark is a mark made at the beginning of a track and enables
playback devices to distinguish the starting position of each audio
track. A track mark also facilitates track search and intro playback.
You can make a track mark on this unit either automatically or
manually.
The following explains key terms used in this manual.

■ Rules of digital recording
SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)
As a digital audio component, this unit conforms with the Serial
Copy Management System (SCMS) standards. The Serial Copy
Management System restricts copies made by recording digital
signals to first-generation copies only.
The digital program sources that have been recorded cannot be
digitally recorded again.
There are 2 rules as follows:
Rule 1
Digital sources such as commercially available CDs can be copied
digitally onto other recordable digital media with this unit (a first-
generation digital copy). However, the first-generation digital copy
cannot be copied digitally any further.
Rule 2
The source that was recorded via the ANALOG LINE IN (REC)
jacks can be copied digitally onto other recordable digital media
(a first-generation digital copy). However, the first-generation
digital copy cannot be copied digitally any further.
This unit monitors the SCMS status for each track when a digital
recording is made. If the track is protected from digital recording
and copying, it is not possible to make a digital recording and copy
of that track.
The SCMS standard does not apply to analog recording and
copying.
When making a copy from a CD onto the HDD, or from the HDD
onto a CD-R or CD-RW disc, any of the copy methods described
below can be selected. The following selections are contained in
“Copy Method”.
•“Auto Dig/Anlg”:
Automatically switches to analog recording if the track cannot be
digitally recorded for SCMS.
•“Digital Copy”:
Performs digital copying of only those tracks that can be digitally
copied.
•“Digital Move”:
Performs digital copying of the tracks that cannot be digitally
copied by “Digital Copy” when copying from the HDD onto a
CD-R or CD-RW disc.
•“Analog Copy”:
Performs analog copying regardless of the SCMS standard.
Digital Move
This unit has a built-in HDD with large space that makes a long
recording possible. You can create your own CD by editing the
various program sources that have been recorded onto the HDD of
this unit and copying them onto a CD-R or CD-RW disc.
If you want to make a digital copy of the original data that has been
created on the HDD to a CD-R or CD-RW disc, the “Digital Move”
method is convenient. You can make a digital copy from the HDD
onto a CD-R or CD-RW disc even if the track is protected from
making a second-generation copy by the SCMS standard.
However, since the concept of “Digital Move” is that the data is
moved from the HDD onto a CD-R or CD-RW disc, the original
data on the HDD is erased when moving is complete.
RULES OF DIGITAL RECORDING AND NOTES ON SYSTEM
■ Notes on system
Number and length of recordable discs and
tracks
•One CD-R or CD-RW disc, or one disc on the HDD can be
recorded with up to 99 tracks on them.
•Once 99 tracks have been recorded, no further recording is
possible even if space for recording is available on the disc.
• The minimum length of one track must be 4 seconds. If a
recording is stopped while the track is less than 4 seconds long,
this unit will record for 4 seconds, and then stop recording. The
maximum length of one track is 179 minutes 59 seconds for the
HDD.
•999 discs can be created at maximum on the HDD of this unit.
However, the number of discs that can be created is limited
according to the space availability (total recordable time) on the
HDD.
•The maximum length of one disc on the HDD is 99 minutes 59
seconds. However, since each track on the HDD is handled in the
unit of frame (75 frames are equal to one second), the maximum
length of one track or disc may vary slightly.
•When recording on a CD-R or CD-RW disc, 2-second silence will
be automatically added to the beginning of the first track.
Therefore the actual total recordable time will be 2 seconds
shorter than the total recordable time of a CD-R or CD-RW disc.
Source sampling rate conversion
•Digital input of this unit supports sampling frequencies of 32kHz,
44.1kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz. This unit converts these inputs to
the 44.1kHz,16-bit digital signals and records them onto the
HDD, or a CD-R or CD-RW disc.
• Analog input is also converted to the same digital signal to be
recorded.
•This unit outputs the signals at the sampling frequency of
44.1kHz, 16-bit from its digital output.
Recording of non-audio signals
•This unit is designed exclusively for recording audio signals.
Recording is only possible for audio signals.
•When a CD with CD TEXT is copied onto the HDD, CD TEXT
will be automatically copied if it is not copy protected. When a
CD with CD TEXT is recorded from an external CD player, CD
TEXT cannot be copied even if it is not copy protected. To copy
CD TEXT, use the built-in CDR drive of this unit.
•If the digital signals contain graphic data such as CD graphics, the
non-audio signals will not be recorded.
•It is not possible to record from non-audio sources such as CD-
ROM or DVD.
Data processing
•A small amount of space may be used for data processing besides
recording the actual program sources.
•Although this unit is capable of recording 999 albums at
maximum onto the HDD, the data processing speed may slow
down if a large number of albums is created.
