4 – Recording—Frequency conversion

TASCAM CD-RW4U

Frequency conversion

The sampling frequency for CDs is 44.1 kHz. The 
CD-RW4U will always record (and play back) CDs 
at this frequency. 

However, if recording through a digital connection 
and the source has been recorded at a frequency other 
than 44.1 kHz, or is being played back at a non-stan-
dard speed using a varispeed unit (more than 0.02% 

away from 44.1kHz), the CD-RW4U’s internal fre-
quency converter will automatically convert the 
incoming frequency to 44.1 kHz.

NOTE

If an attempt is made to record from a digitally-connected 
source at a different frequency, the error message 

Not 

Fs44.1k!

is displayed.

Level adjustment

• The analog signals received at the 

LINE IN

 jacks 

are controlled with the 

INPUT LEVEL

 control 

C

.

• Digital signal levels as well as the level of analog 

signals once they have passed through the 

INPUT 

LEVEL

 control are adjusted in the following way:

1

Press the 

RECORD

 key (

5

 or 

E

) to place 

the unit in record ready mode.

2

Repeatedly press the 

MENU

 key (

E

 or 

7

until the display shows 

VOLUME 

XXXdB

 where 

XXX

 is the current setting.

3

Use the 

MULTI DIAL

 control 

B

 or the 

 SKIP

 

keys 

I

 to adjust the input volume between 

-60dB

 and 

+18db

 (relative to the origi-

nal input level). There is also a 

----

 set-

ting which represents a complete signal cut.

NOTE

The unit remembers the volume menu settings for both 
analog and digital inputs. These are independent of each 
other, and the volume setting changes to the remembered 
values automatically when the input source is changed.

Time display while recording

While a recordable disc is being played back, the 
four time display modes available in normal play-
back as described in “Time display modes” on 
page 16: 

TOTAL

TOTAL REMAIN

, track 

REMAIN

 and 

elapsed track time.

However, during recording there are fewer options 
available (obviously, the unit cannot see into the 
future and know how much time remains of the track 
which is being currently recorded!).

When in record or record ready mode, repeated 
presses of the 

DISPLAY

 key 

6

 cycle between dis-

playing the remaining time left for recording on the 
disc (

TOTAL REMAIN

) and the elapsed time of the track 

currently being recorded (no indicator lit).

When a recordable disc is stopped, the following two 
options are available: 

TOTAL

 (the total time recorded 

so far on the disc) and 

TOTAL REMAIN

 (the total time 

available on the disc for further recording).
