10 − Copying files between CD and CF card
When copying or converting and copying files (MP3 or
WAV files) from a CF card to a blank CD (CD-R or
CD-RW), you can choose whether to write the file in its
current format as a data CD, or as an audio CD in CD-DA
format. If you choose audio CD format, the MP3 or WAV
files on the CF card whose sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz
can be converted to audio CD (CD-DA) format and written
to a CD. If you are using a CD disc to which tracks have
already been written, but which has not yet been finalized,
the disc format (audio CD or data CD) has already been
determined, so the copy will occur in that format.
NOTE
The SS-CDR1 cannot record WAV files to a CD, but is
able to copy WAV files from a CF card to a CD. The
SS-CDR1 can play back the WAV files copied on a CD.
You can copy (or convert and copy) files from a CF card to
a CD. Or you can copy (or convert and copy) files from a
CD to a CF card. Set the current device to CD since these
copies are made using the CD menu. Or, before doing the
following procedure, insert an appropriate CD and CF card
in the SS-CDR1.
Creating an audio CD
Here is how to convert MP3 or WAV files on a CF card to
audio CD (CD-DA) format and write them on a CD.
The following procedure assumes that the CD is selected
as the current device and that the CF card which includes
the copy-source files and the CD which is the target of the
copy are inserted in the SS-CDR1.
1. Press the
MENU
key to access the main menu list
screen.
2. Highlight the CD menu, and press the front panel
MULTI JOG
dial (or the remote’s
ENTER
key).
3. Highlight the BURN TO CD item, and press the
front panel
MULTI JOG
dial (or the remote’s
ENTER
key).
The SS-CDR1 will automatically load the CF card.
While the data is being read, the display will indicate
MEDIA READ
and a progress bar popup will appear.
NOTE
If a CF card is not inserted,
CF READ
popup will
appear after
MEDIA READ
indication.
4. If a blank CD is inserted in the CD drive, a popup
window asking you to select the CD writing format
will appear after the CF card has been read. High-
light “CD-DA,” and press the front panel
MULTI
JOG
dial (or the remote’s
ENTER
key).
The folder finder screen for the CF card will appear.
NOTE
If audio CD tracks have already been written to the
CD, the above popup window will not appear; CD-DA
format will be selected automatically.
5. Select the source that will be recorded to the CD.
As described in “Navigating in the folder finder screen” on
page 50, navigate within the finder to select the desired
file. You cannot select a folder.
If you want to select more than one file, repeat the steps of
highlighting the desired file and pressing the
CALL
key.
The selected files will be given a check mark. You can
make multiple selections only for files that are in the same
folder.
To de-select a selected file, press the
CALL
key once again.
NOTE
The copy-source files must have a sampling frequen-
•
cy of 44.1 kHz. If you attempt to select a file whose
sampling frequency is 48 kHz, a popup indicating
Cannot burn 48kHz files
will appear.
