Track extraction
This mode is used with audio CDs for extracting a
number of tracks from a source disc and copying
them to the target discs. It has no meaning with other
types of disc.
1
Press the
MODE
key until the display shows
the following:
2
Press
ENTER
to proceed with the track
extraction. The
MASTER
drive disc tray
opens automatically:
3
Insert the source disc and close the master
drive disc tray.).
4
Insert recordable target discs into the slave
drive(s) (the drive trays open automatically).
If you are not using every slave drive, simply
close any empty trays. Close the trays and
wait for all indicators to go out.
5
Press
ENTER
(or
ESCAPE
to exit). The
source disc is then analyzed to discover if it is
an audio disc, and if so, how many tracks are
on it:
6
After this analysis, you can extract tracks
one at a time. The bottom line shows the cur-
rent track which you can extract, followed by
the total number of tracks on the source disc
and the total time so far of the selected tracks
in the list if the current track is selected. This
allows you to judge in advance whether add-
ing a track will add too much data to the tar-
get disc:
The screen above shows that the current
track is track 2, out of a total of 14 tracks on
the source disc.
7
Press
ENTER
to add the currently-shown
track to the list of tracks to be copied, and
move to the next track on the source disc.
Press
MODE
to skip the currently-shown
track (it will not be added to the list) and
move to the next track in the list.

When the last track is reached, the display
shows
Press
ENTER
to continue with the extraction
of the tracks that have been selected so far, or
MODE
to return to the start of the source CD
again and remake the list.
NOTE
Note that
END EXTRACTION?
in this screen
actually asks whether the selection process should be
ended and the extraction process should start.
9
If you have pressed
ENTER
to continue, the
display shows
SURE ?
. Press
ENTER
again
to confirm that the track copying will start.
10
As copying of the tracks to be extracted
progresses, the total time of the tracks to be
copied, and a percentage of the copying done
so far is shown on the display.
When the copy is finished, the display shows
Tr Extraction?
.
NOTE
Recording done in this way is performed in the Disc At
Once (DAO) mode. A 2-second gap is added between
tracks automatically.
You may press and hold the
ESCAPE
key for 5 sec-
onds or more to abort the copying process. However,
note that this will make the target discs unusable for
further operations.
