C.A.R. 4000 (English)
computer. Because we use a computer CD-ROM drive with the C.A.R. 4000, such CDs can gen-
erally not be played with the C.A.R. 4000. But because computer drives are being used more
and more often in consumer electronics (in CD and DVD players, car radios etc.), it is an open
question whether the record industry will retain the copy-protection concept. If you purchase
a CD with the audio-CD logo that has copy protection, you have the right to return it for a re-
fund. Unfortunately the law requires us to respect the copy protection and we cannot break it.
Special formats: Mixed Mode and Enhanced CD.
These special formats are a combination of
data and audio tracks on one CD. In the Mixed Mode CD the first track is the data track and in
the Enhanced CD the last track is the data track. Both formats can be read. You can access the
audio section via CD-A and the data section via CD-ROM with the soft key in the browser
(SOURCE). However, with the Enhanced CD one audio track more than is actually there is dis-
played. This has the title DATA and cannot be played back.
As described above, after insertion of an audio-CD you only need to press the red Recording
button and recording starts.
If a CD cannot be identified by the CDDB
®
database, you can of course still record it. You would
ultimately find this CD under one of these entries on your hard disk. You can edit the entries
with the Track Info; for more information see page 27.
Stop recording.
If you stop a recording midway through a title with the
STOP
button, the sec-
tion recorded before you stopped it will also be in the database—i.e. all complete tracks and
the last incomplete track.
Not the entire CD.
If you do not want to record the entire CD, you have various options. If you
want to record from
track 5
to the end, turn the wheel to this title and then start recording. If
you only want to record specific titles on a CD, proceed in exactly the same way as you would
to make selections for a playback list, i.e. select the individual titles with the wheel, synchro-
nize on the beginning with
ESC
and then start recording by pressing the record button. If there
are tracks on the list that are not on the audio-CD but on MMC or HDD, they will be ignored
during recording and deleted from the list. You can also use the selection to select all the
tracks on a CD but arrange them in a different sequence. As you know, you create a selection
list and the position in this list will correspond to the later track number. See “The List Info.”
for the details of the list and how to edit it.
No duplication—no replacement.
Note that a track that is already on the hard disk will not be
recorded. If you want to record a title completely that you had previously only recorded in-
completely, you will first need to remove the prior recording from the database. Do this with
the Track Info function; see page 27 for more information.
