Convenient functions for audio CD creation
The following section describes the precautions to be
observed and convenient functions that you can use
whenever creating audio CDs.
Precautions
In addition to CD-R discs, you can also use CD-RW discs
when making audio CDs. However, it may not be possible
for audio CDs created using CD-RW discs to be played on
standard CD players.
Furthermore, even when CD-R discs are used for this purpose,
playback will not be possible on CD players that do not support
this type of media. You should, therefore, confirm that the CD
player to be used is compatible with CD-R discs.
Note that the BR-1600CD’s CD-R/RW drive can play commercially
produced audio CDs, CD-R discs, and CD-RW discs.
Setting the time between
songs (Pre-Gap)
Often when you are playing audio CDs on standard CD
players, you will see a countdown in the form of “-3, -2, -1”
on the player’s display before songs start. This duration is
referred to as a Pre-Gap, and it can be freely set during the
CD creation process to allow song lengths to be adjusted
without having to record silence at the end of each.

Turn the TIME/VALUE dial to specify a pre-gap time
in seconds.
For more details regarding basic functions for audio
CD creation, refer to “Writing your finished song to
a CD (Audio CD Write)” (Basic Operation; p. 62).
Whenever a CD is created using the Disc At Once By
Marker function (see Basic Operation; p. 66), the pre-
gap specified here will be ignored and all gaps will
be set to 0 seconds.
If silence is included at the end of your finished
song, the pre-gap time will be added to the length of
this section, and as a result, the gap between songs
will be longer than expected when the CD is played
back on a CD player. For details regarding the
deletion of silence from the end of songs, refer to
“Erasing audio data (Track Erase)” (p. 63).
