D MASTERING MODE
Select the operation of the Mastering function that
creates audio CDs.
• TEST button
If this button is on, a “writing test” will be per-
formed before mastering is executed, to check
whether errors occur during writing (default= off).
The writing test will require approximately as
much time as the actual writing.
• WRITE button
Use this button to turn the actual mastering opera-
tion on/off (default=on). If the TEST button is on
and the WRITE button is off, only the writing test
will be performed.
If an error occurs during the writing test, the master-
ing operation will be aborted immediately. Check
whether the writing speed is set appropriately, and
whether the hard disk has sufficient free space for the
mastering operation.
E CD BACKUP/WAV-EXP MODE (CD
backup/WAV export mode)
Use the following three buttons to specify how
songs will be backed up to CD-R/RW media, and
how audio data will be exported (written) to a
WAV file.
• TEST button
If this button is on, a “writing test” will be per-
formed before backup/export is executed, to check
whether errors occur during writing (default= off).
The writing test will require approximately as
much time as the actual writing.
• WRITE button
Use this button to turn the actual backup/export
operation on/off (default=on). If the TEST button is
on and the WRITE button is off, only the writing
test will be performed.
• COMPARE button
If this button is on, the data on the CD-R/RW
media will be compared with the original data on
the internal hard disk immediately after the data
has been written (default= off). If for some reason
the data was not recorded accurately on the CD-R/
RW media, an error message will appear during
the Compare operation. Compare will require
approximately as much time as writing the data.
