Screen functions
A DRIVE
Select the internal or external CD-RW drive. Move
the cursor to this area, use the [DATA/JOG] dial to
select the desired CD-RW drive, and press the
[ENTER] key to confirm your selection.
B Track list
This lists the tracks of the audio CD inserted in the
CD-RW drive. The row enclosed in the dotted line
is the track currently selected as the import source.
To select the track, move the cursor into the list
and turn the [DATA/JOG] dial.
Tip!
You can also import audio data from a mixed-mode
CD-ROM (track 2 or later) or CD-DA data from a CD
Extra (first session only), as well as from a conven-
tional audio CD.
C PASTE TO
Specify the track/virtual track in which the audio
data imported from CD-DA will be placed. Specify
the track number in the “TR” numerical box, and
the virtual track in the “V” numerical box. (You
can also select a virtual track that is not currently
assigned to the track.) The NAME area will show
the name of the selected track.
Since the CD-DA audio data is imported in stereo, the
track number will always be selected as an odd-num-
bered/even-numbered pair.
D Point setting
Specify the starting location on the track at which
the imported CD-DA audio data will be placed.
Tip!
The units by which this point is specified will depend
on the counter display method (hours/time code/mea-
sures) selected in the SONG screen/Setting page. If
measure display is selected, you can specify the loca-
tion in “beat” or “measure” units.
E TYPE
Specify whether the imported CD-DA audio data
will be inserted into the track (Insert) or overwrit-
ten (OverWrite). If you select “Insert,” the data fol-
lowing the specified point (4) in the import
destination track will move later in time propor-
tionately to the length of the inserted data.
F EXTRACT POINT
Specify the range that will be imported from the
track selected in the track list (2). Move the cursor
to the START (starting location) and END (ending
location) numerical boxes, and use the [DATA/
JOG] dial to input the “minutes:seconds.frames (1/
75 second)” units.
G EXECUTE button
This button executes the CD-DA import operation.
For details on operation, refer to page 174.
• The CD Import page can be used only if the current
song has a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz. If the
current song has a sampling frequency of 48 kHz, a
message of “Current Song is 48 (kHz) Fs Type” will
be displayed, and this page will not be available.
• The keys of the transport section will have no effect
while the CD Import page is displayed.
• If the CD/DAT DIGITAL REC setting is set to “DIS-
ABLE” in the UTILITY screen/Prefer.2 page, it will
not be possible to import tracks from an audio CD
that prohibits digital copying (
