1 – Introduction—About discs
• Do not attach a piece of paper or sticker on the
label side of disc. When a disc has a piece of plas-
tic tape or rental CD label with paste protruded
from the edge or when a disc has a trace of such a
sticky object, do not attempt to play the disc. If
such a disc is played on the CD recorder, impossi-
bility of taking out the disc or other malfunction
may result.
About discs
CD-R
CD-RW
• Do not use a disc with a special shape.
Handle discs carefully so as not to damage
or scratch the front side.
Do not attempt to play a disc with a special shape
such as a heart-shaped disc or octagonal disc.
Otherwise the equipment malfunction may result.
To protect the disc, avoid placing it in the
following locations:
• In direct sunlight or near a source of heat like a
heater.
• In a place which is damp or dirty.
• In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as
near a window.
Always keep the disc surface clean.
When cleaning the disc surface, always be sure to use
a special compact disc cleaner and wipe as shown
below.
• Do not use conventional record cleaner for analog
records, as this will adversely affect the disc sur-
face.
Store discs properly by placing them in their disc
cases.

1 – Introduction—What is finalizing?
Caution regarding batteries
What is finalizing?
Incorrect use of batteries may cause leakage or burst-
ing. Please carefully read and observe the following
cautions.
• Be sure to insert the batteries in the correct orien-
tation as indicated by the “+” and “–” markings
on the battery case.
• Do not mix new batteries with old batteries, or
batteries of differing types.
• Never attempt to recharge batteries.
Even after audio data is recorded on a CD-R or CD-
RW disc, it cannot be played back on a conventional
CD player until the final TOC(*) data has been
recorded on the disc. The process of recording this
TOC data is called “finalizing”.
No further recording can be performed on a finalized
disc. However in the case of a CD-RW, the disc can be
“un-finalized” to allow additional recording (
→
p.31).
• Remove the batteries if you won’t be using the
remote control unit for an extended period (more
than one month).
* TOC: Table of Contents = information about the
recorded data, such as the number and playing
times of the songs
• If leakage occurs, carefully wipe off any liquid
from inside the case and install new batteries.
Using the remote control unit
Cautions for use
• Remote control operations may not be possible if
the remote control receiver is in direct sunlight or
under intense illumination.
• Please be aware that operating the remote control
unit may cause unintended operations to occur on
other infrared-controlled equipment.
Installing the batteries
Open the cover on the back panel of the remote con-
trol unit, and install two batteries (AAA size) in the
correct orientation as indicated by the “+” and “-”
markings on the case.
When to replace the batteries
If the range of control has lessened, or if pressing a
button does not produce an operation, please replace
both batteries with new ones.

and then press the ENTER button on the remote con-
trol unit (or the PLAY or PAUSE button), direct
search will be executed. The minutes and seconds
digits will all be zero.
Note
Unless otherwise specified, the explanations in this man-
ual assume that playback mode is selected.
Note
Single playback
Only one track will play, and then playback will stop.
If you use this method to specify a track, you may omit
the 0 or 00 at the beginning. For example, press 2 to
select track 2, or press 1 and then 2 to select track 12,
and then press the ENTER button (or the PLAY or
PAUSE button).

4 – Playback—Playing MP3 files
Caution
Note
• For a disc on which MP3 files are stored, each MP3
file is handled as a “track”.
MP3 files converted at a sampling rate other than 44.1
kHz cannot be played correctly. The recommended
format is a 44.1 kHz sampling rate and a bit rate of
128 kbps or higher.
• Directories that do not contain MP3 files cannot be
selected for operations. For example in the illustration
below, directories B and C contain MP3 files and can
be selected for operations, but directory A is excluded
from operations.
Note
• For a disc on which MP3 files are stored, each MP3
file is handled as a “track”.
• Even if the MP3 disc is internally divided into multiple
directories (a hierarchical structure), all MP3 files
including those in sub-directories and sub-sub-direc-
tories will be read.
• Track numbers are assigned automatically, starting
with MP3 files in the root directory (the top level of the
disc).

Specifying a directory for playback
Here’s how to use directory mode, in which you can
playback the MP3 files within a specified directory of
the MP3 disc.
Caution
<About directory playback>
A directory (also called a “folder”) is a hierarchical
level on CD media or a hard disk.
If you turn directory mode on, the MP3 files in the root
directory (the top level that contains directory A and
directory D in the above illustration) cannot be played.
If directory mode is on, only the files within the
selected directory will be the target of your opera-
tions, and functions such as program playback and
repeat playback will all occur within the same direc-
tory.
If directory mode is off, the directory structure of the
disc is ignored, and all MP3 files on the disc will be
subject to playback.

jacks L/R is selected as the recording source.
The display will briefly indicate “Analog”
.
[DIGITAL] and [OPTICAL] lit
The input signal of the DIGITAL IN (OPTICAL) jack
is selected as the recording source.
Before you record
Understanding the following points will help you avoid
unnecessary problems when recording. Before record-
ing, please take a moment to read these.
• The CD specification allows no more than 99
tracks (songs) to be recorded on a disc. Also, it is
not possible to record a song that is shorter than
four seconds.
• If you press the STOP button or PAUSE button
less than four seconds after you start recording,
the recorder will stop or enter record-ready mode
only after four seconds have elapsed. Silence will
be recorded during this time.

sampling rate). If you wish to digitally record a signal
of a different sampling rate from a DIGITAL IN jack
(OPTICAL/COAXIAL), you must turn on the sample
rate converter (SRC) as follows.
• If the number of songs reaches 99 during record-
ing, the display will indicate “Disc Full!” and
“PMA Writing” and then the recorder will stop.
• If the available recording time of the disc is com-
pletely used up while recording, a fade-out will be
performed. Then the display will indicate “Disc
Full!” and “PMA Writing” and the recorder
will stop.

jack (OPTICAL/COAXIAL) when the SRC is off, the
[DIGITAL] indicator on the display will blink while
recording, record-ready, or monitoring.
• If you want to record additional material on a CD-
RW that has already been finalized, you can un-
finalize the disc (
→
p.31).
• Digital signals other than 44.1 kHz cannot be
recorded if the SRC is off. If you attempt to record, an
error message of “Not Fs44.1K!” is displayed.

6 – CD-R/CD-RW disc operations
4
To execute the operation, press the ENTER
button once again.
Finalization will begin, and the display will indi-
cate the estimated time remaining until comple-
tion as “TOC X:XX”.
When finalization is finished, the display will
indicate “Complete”. All operating buttons are
disabled while finalization is being performed.
Caution
Be careful that the power is not accidentally turned off
while the finalize, un-finalize, refresh, or disc/track erase
operations are being executed. If this occurs, the data on
the disc will be corrupted, and it is also possible that the
disc itself will become unusable.
This section explains various operations that you can
perform on a CD-R/CD-RW disc, such as finalizing a
recorded CD-R/CD-RW disc so that it can be played
on a conventional CD player, or erasing all or part of
the tracks on a CD-RW disc.
Un-finalizing
Finalizing
Un-finalizing is an operation that allows further
recording on a CD-RW disc that has been finalized.
Finalizing is the operation of writing the TOC (Table
Of Contents: information about the recorded data,
such as the number of songs and the playback start
time of each song) to the CD-R/CD-RW media.
1
3, 4
A disc recorded on the CDR632 cannot be played
back on a conventional CD player until the final TOC
has been written to the disc. (The CDR632 itself will
be able to play the disc even before it has been final-
ized.)
2
Normally, no additional recording can be done on
CD-R/CD-RW media once it has been finalized.
However in the case of a CD-RW, you can “un-
finalize” the disc so that additional recording can be
performed.
1 Insert a finalized CD-RW disc into the disc
tray.

has been used by a computer. In such cases, refresh-
ing the disc as described below may enable the
CDR632 to detect it.
