D424 MO Recorder
Date printed: 06.03.02 SW V 1.6
Operation 4/25
Further parameters are considered for a data transfer to a CD recorder:
Noise Shaping For improved audio quality when transferring 20 bit or 24 bit data to a 16
bit CD.
Track Delay For inserting a delay of 100 ms between track begin and audio, to improve
readability of CDs on consumer players.
Index 0 Pause When transferring in “ toc” mode, an additional pause (index 0) of 2...5 s
can automatically be inserted between tracks. In “ add” transfer mode, the
Studer D741 always generates pauses of 2 seconds.
Starting the Transfer • The transfer process is initiated in the SETUP menu. After having edited
the current sequence and checked the parameters, select MASTER COPY
menu 62:
[SETUP] [6] [2]
• The indication “ cd mounted” will confirm that the communication be-
tween D424 and the CD writer is working properly.
• Start the process by moving to the “ start” item with the cursor keys, and
confirm with
[ENT] .
• During the entire transfer process, the indication “ processing” and a prog-
ress bar with “ #” signs will inform you on the transfer status.
• As soon as the transfer is finished, the display will revert to standard
mode. If a “ toc” transfer has been made, the CD writer will open its disc
tray.
Notes: Do not interrupt a SCSI transfer by disconnecting or switching off one of
the two units. The current session on the CD-R might be damaged.
The D424 will check if the CD-R has sufficient capacity for doing a disk-
at-once transfer of the current disk. An ERROR message will appear if the
sequence is too long.
In ADD mode, the capacity check is made “ take by take” . The transfer
process is stopped automatically when the CD-R is full.
The D424 does not accept more than 99 indices for a single disk-at-once
transfer. If the required number is higher, multiple ADD transfers have to
be used.
Finalizing a CD will take 2...3 minutes. Do not interrupt the process. The
display will revert to standard mode as soon as the process is finished.
