you close the CD, you cannot record on it any more.

2) Press the EXEC button (F7) to close the CD. Press the MENU button (F1) to cancel and go back to the
CD menu.
Tips and Suggestions
• A Closed CD can be played on any audio CD player, including car stereo and personal computers.
You can give your CD to friends, family, or anyone.
• If you have a personal computer with the appropriate CD drive and software, you can save your
CD recordings to computer. You can then make duplicate CD copies to send to others, deleting
any bad tracks (songs), or mixing and matching songs from other CD’s that you’ve recorded.
• The Concert Performer’s CD drive records and plays audio CD’s only. You cannot play or record
other forms of CD’s, including CD-ROM’s and data CD’s.
• A song recorded on a CD-RW disc can be erased by a personal computer with the appropriate CD
drive and software, or by a stand-alone CD-RW recorder/player.
