1 − Introduction Thank you for your purchase of the TASCAM CD-RW900MKII CD rewritable recorder. Before connecting and using the unit, please take time to read this manual thoroughly to ensure you understand how to properly set up and connect the CD-RW900MKII, as well as the operation of its many useful and convenient functions. After you have finished reading this manual, please keep it in a safe place for future reference.
1 − Introduction About CD-R and CD-RW discs CD-R discs can be recorded once only. Once they have been used for recording, they cannot be erased or re-recorded. However, if space is available on the disc, additional material can be recorded.
1 − Introduction Environmental considerations The CD-RW900MKII may be used in most areas, but to maintain top performance, and prolong operating life, observe the following environmental conditions: • The nominal temperature should be between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F). • Relative humidity should be 30 to 90 percent. • As the unit may become hot during operation, always leave sufficient space above the unit for ventilation.
1 − Introduction Beware of condensation If the unit (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanism, making correct operation impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the player sit for one or two hours at the new room temperature before using.

5 − Recording Before you start recording using the CD-RW900MKII, make sure that you understand the following key points: • Once you have recorded on a CD-R disc, the data cannot be erased from it. • You can add tracks to an unfinalized recordable disc. Once finalized, a CD-R disc is “fixed” and behaves in the same way as a pre-recorded disc. Finalized CD-RW discs, however, can be erased, refreshed and re-recorded.
5 − Recording NOTE As the unit enters record ready mode, the display shows Now OPC (Optimum Power Control) occasionally, as the unit prepares to record on the disc. To adjust the level of the source, following the guidelines in “Input selection” on page 24. NOTE The red “OVER” indicators on the meters should never light. Unlike analog equipment, digital audio units pro-duce extremely unpleasant sounds when distorted, and there is no “headroom” after the 0 mark.
5 − Recording Synchronized recording Synchronized recording basically means that recording will begin automatically when a signal is received, and will stop when the signal ends. Starting playback of the source automatically starts recording on the CD-RW900MKII if Sync function is on (see “Sync recording” below) and manual record start is disabled. The SYNC indicator appears on the display. Sync recording 1. While recording standby mode, press the SYNC REC key. 2.

Use A_TRK option in the REC sub-menu to set the mode on. The A.TRACK indicator at the top right of the display lights. 2.
6 − After recording This section deals with the actions taken after record-ing: finalizing for CD-R and CD-RW discs, and erase operations for CD-RW discs. Once finalized, CD-R discs are truly final—no more can be recorded on them. By contrast, CD-RW discs can be “unfinalized” using the CD-RW900MKII, i.e. their TOC can be deleted, and if there is space, further material can be recorded on them. Even if the disc is full, tracks can be erased following the unfinalize process, and new material can be recorded.
6 − After recording Erasing Erasing tracks This operation erases the specified track and all sub-sequent tracks from a recorded CD-RW disc. NOTE Once this operation has started, the STOP key cannot be used to cancel it. Please check the track range to be deleted first. Erasing track is operated only when unit is in continuos playback. 1. While stopped, press the ERASE/DEL key on the front panel or the ERASE key on the remote control.
7 − Titling Titles can be given to the disc and the tracks on the disc, using the TEXT EDIT option on the TEXT sub-menu. the titles will not have be added. You must finalize the disc to save the titles. NOTE After a new title is selected and entered on the disc, TOC will light up on the display. If the power is turned off, the TOC has not been recorded on the disc and Title input operation Follow the guidelines below to input titles on the screen. Operate them when in the text edit mode.
7 − Titling Using a keyboard with the CD-RW900MKII A computer keyboard can be connected to the IBM PC compatible PS/2 interface on the front panel to operate certain functions of the CD-RW900MKII. It is particularly efficient for title input. Keyboard type setting The CD-RW900MKII must be set for the type of keyboard being connected. Set the type using the sub-menu KEYBOARD option on the SYSTEM sub-menu. Select US for an English-language keyboard, or JP for a Japanese-language keyboard.
