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. The pack-aging of  
CD-R discs will include one of the following logos:  
CD-R and CD-RW discs are sensitive to the effects  
of heat and ultraviolet rays. It is important that they  
are not stored in a location where direct sunlight  
will fall on them, and which is away from sources of  
heat such as radiators or heat-generating electrical  
devices.  
Always store CD-R and CD-RW discs in their cases  
to avoid dirt and dust accumulating on their surfaces.  
When labeling CD-R and CD-RW discs, always use a  
soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information.  
Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this  
may cause damage to the recorded side.  
By contrast, a CD-RW disc can be used in much the  
same way as a CD-R disc, but the last track or tracks  
recorded can be erased before the disc has been  
“finalized”, and the space on the disc can be re- used  
for other recordings. The packaging of CD-RW discs  
will include the logo one of the following logos:  
Always keep the recording sides of the discs away  
from grime and dust to avoid a reduction in sound  
quality. To clean a disc, wipe gently with a soft dry  
cloth from the center towards the outside edge. Do  
not use thinner, gasoline, benzene or LP cleaning  
fluid, as these will damage the disc and cause the  
disc unplayable.  
However, you should note that an audio CD  
created using a CD-RW900 disc may not play back  
satisfactorily on every audio CD player. It will, naturally,  
be playable on the CD-RW900. This is in no way a  
limitation of the CD-RW900 itself, but of the difference  
between the different types of media and the methods  
used to read them.  
Do not put labels or protective sheets on the discs  
and do not use any protective coating spray.  
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of  
a CD-R disc, read the precautions supplied with the  
disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly.  
There are precautions that you should take when  
handling CD-R and CD-RW discs.  
Avoid touching the recording (non-label) side of a  
disc on which you will be recording. Recording on  
a disc requires a cleaner surface than playing back,  
and fingerprints, grease, etc. can cause errors in the  
recording process.  
Finalizing  
Although audio data may be written on a CD-R or CD-  
RW disc, a standard CD player will not be able to read  
the data (i.e. play back the audio) until a final *TOC has  
been written at the start of the disc.  
In the case of a CD-RW disc which has been finalized,  
the whole of the disc may be erased, or the disc may  
be “refreshed”, and the disc re-used.  
In addition, a CD-RW disc that has been finalized  
may be “unfinalized”, i.e. only the TOC is removed.  
This allows further tracks to be recorded to the disc,  
provided that there is space on the disc.  
*TOC=Table of contents:  
information of recorded data, which contains titles, starting  
and ending addresses, and etc..  
The process of writing this table of contents is known  
as “finalizing”. Once this has been done, no further data  
can be written to the disc. See “Finalizing” on page 25  
for details.  
“Recordable” discs  
In this maanual, we use the term “recordable” disc to  
describe a CD-R or CD-RW disc that has not been  
finalized, i.e. further recording is possible on the disc.

1Introduction  
Environmental considerations  
The CD-RW900 may be used in most areas, but to  
maintain top performance, and prolong operating life,  
observe the following environmental conditions:  
Avoid installing this apparatus on top of any heat-  
generating electrical device such as a power ampli-  
fier.  
Make sure that the unit is mounted in a level position  
for correct operation.  
The nominal temperature should be between 5°C  
and 35°C (41°F and 95°F).  
Relative humidity should be 30 to 90 degrees non-  
condensing.  
NOTE  
The voltage supplied to the unit should match the volt-  
age as printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt  
regarding this matter, consult an electrician.  
As the unit may become hot during operation, always  
leave sufficient space above the unit for ventilation.  
Do not install this unit in a confined space such as  
a book case or similar product, and do not put any  
material goods on the unit.  
Handling of compact discs  
The CD-RW900 has been designed for the playback of  
CD-DA format discs and MP3 files recorded in ISO9660  
format: In addition to ordinary 5-inch and 3-inch CDs,  
it can also play properly recorded CD-R and CD-RW  
discs.  
Do not affix any labels or stickers to the label side  
of the disc. Do not write on the disc with a ballpoint  
pen.  
Do not insert discs that have adhesive remaining  
from tape or stickers that have been removed. If they  
are inserted into the player, they could stick to the  
internal mechanism, requiring removal by a techni-  
cian.  
Always place the compact discs in the trays with  
their label facing upward.  
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the  
center of the disc holder, then lift the disc out, hold-  
ing it carefully by the edges.  
Do not use cracked discs.  
Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using non-  
circular promotional, etc. discs.  
The CD-RW900 cannot play unfinalized CD-R/RW  
Avoid getting fingerprints on the signal side (opposite  
the label side). Grime and dust may cause skipping,  
so keep discs clean and store them in their cases  
when not being played. To clean the signal side of a  
disc, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth from the center  
towards the outside edge.  
discs.  
Music discs with  
copy control, a compact disc copy-  
protection system, have been released form several  
record companies aiming to protect the copyright.  
Since some of these discs do not comply with the  
CD specifications, they may not be playable on the  
CD-RW900.  
Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions,  
benzene, paint thinner or other chemical agents to  
clean CDs as they could damage the delicate playing  
surface. It may cause CDs unplayable.  
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to  
avoid serious scratches that could cause the laser  
pickup to “skip”.  
Keep discs away from direct sunlight, and places of  
high heat and humidity. If left in such places, warping  
could result.

TASCAM CD-RW900  
1 Introduction  
Never use a stabilizer or printable discs  
Using commercially available CD stabilizers or printable  
recordable discs with this player will damage the mech-  
anism and cause it to malfunction.  
NOTE  
Never use a disc that has had a stabilizer mounted to it.  
The residual adhesive may cause the disc to stick to the  
turntable of the CD-RW900. If it sticks to the turntable,  
you will need a technician to get it out.  
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, leave the player for one or two hours with the  
power turned on, then turn the power off and on again.  
Use of the remote control unit  
Do not expose the light-receptive spot to the direct  
sunlight or intense lights of an illumination for extend-  
ed periods. Long exposure to the lights may result a  
failure of the unit functions.  
The remote control functions by using an infrared  
light signal. When using the unit to control the CD-  
RW900, other devices that are turned on could be  
operated by its signal.  
When the remote control will not be used over one  
month, please remove the batteries to prevent the  
possibility of battery acid leakage which could dam-  
age the unit. Should leakage occur, remove and  
discard the batteries, and wipe the battery case thor-  
oughly with a cloth. Avoid getting the battery liquid  
on the skin. After cleaning, replace with new batter-  
ies.  
If the range of remote operation becomes smaller, or  
commands do not always function properly, the bat-  
teries have become weak and should be replaced.  
Always replace both batteries with new batteries of  
the same type.  
Point the remote control to the remote sensor on the  
main unit. Do not obstruct the path between the re-  
mote control and the remote sensor.  
Batteries  
If batteries are used improperly, or if leakage or break-  
age occurs, the unit will not function. Please observe  
the cautions indicated on the batteries and their pack-  
aging to ensure proper usage.  
Inserting batteries  
1. Open the lid.  
2. Confirm +/- polarity, and insert two AAA batteries.  
3. Close the lid.  
Confirm + and − polarity and follow the indications  
when inserting new batteries into the remote control.  
Do not use old and new batteries together.  
Even if the battery is the same size, the voltage may  
differ. Do not use batteries of different specifications  
together.  
Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are non-  
rechargeable.  
Do not open or disassemble batteries, throw them  
into a fire or put them in water.  
Connections  
The following should be noted when you connect the  
unit to other equipment.  
Audio signals output from the unit are output from the  
analog ANALOG OUT jacks, as well as from the DIGI-  
TAL COAXIAL OUT jack and DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT  
connector simultaneously (but not from the digital out-  
puts in stop mode).  
It is possible to connect the units DIGITAL COAXIAL  
IN, DIGITAL OPTICAL IN and ANALOG UNBAL-  
ANCED INs (L, R) to other equipment at the same  
time. However, the unit can receive signals from only  
one digital input at a time.  
Currently selected input jack is shown on the display.

lines in “Input selection” on page 21.  
Do not vibrate the unit or turn off the power when the  
unit writes to the disc, otherwise, recording fails.  
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. If recording  
digitally from a commercially-produced CD, the volume  
set in the menu should be 0 dB. This will maintain all the  
dynamic range of the source CD without clipping. Only  
boost the signal if the source is exceptionally quiet.  
An analog signal input at nominal level, with no cut or  
boost from the volume controls, is equivalent to a read-  
ing of −16 dB on the meters.  
Time display while recording  
When in record or record ready mode, repeated press-  
es of the TIME key cycle through four different time  
modes:  
Elapsed disc time (TOTAL is lit in the display)  
Remaining disc time (TOTAL and REMAIN are lit in  
the display)  
Elapsed track time (no display light indication)

Full disc  
If recording a long program, when there is no space  
remaining on the disc for recording, as shown by the  
above time display, just before the end of the disc is  
reached, the unit starts a fade-out over four seconds  
(the display shows Fade Out).  
If the disc is a CD-RW, the final track can be erased, if  
required (see “Erasing” on page 26) and the disc then  
finalized. If the disc is a CD-R, it must be finalized prior  
to use (see “Finalizing” on page 25).  
When the fade-out has finished, the display shows

pressing the FADER key on the remote control unit.  
The display shows Fade Out>XXs or Fade In>XXs.  
Synchronaized recording  
Synchronized recording basically means that recording  
will begin automatically when a signal is received, and  
will stop when the signal ends.  
After the synchronization mode is selected, the record  
ready mode must then be entered (you cannot reverse  
the order of these steps).  
Use the SYNC REC key to select the synchronization  
mode. The synchronization mode determines the auto-  
mated start and stopping of recording when a signal is  
received.  
Starting playback of the source automatically starts re-  
cording on the CD-RW900 if Sync ALL or Sync 1 has  
been selected (see “Sync recording” below) and manual  
record start is disabled. If Sync OFF is selected, the re-  
cording must be started manually.  
During stop or recording stancby mode, repeated  
presses of this key cycle through the fol-lowing modes:  
Sync ALL: The SYNC indicator lights up.  
Sync 1: The unit stops when a selected track is fin-  
ished and the SYNC indicator flashes  
Sync OFF: Turns Sync recording function off

NOTE  
After the mode is set, more than one second of  
signal under the adjusted threshold level is required  
to start recording automatically, otherwise, the unit  
does not begin recording even it detects the signals.  
Press the MENU key or push the MULTI JOG dial to  
enter and return to recording standby mode.

When audio signal is not detected more than five sec-  
onds, the CD-RW900 automatically will stop recording  
and enters record standby mode.  
When the Sync ALL is on, and the READY key is  
pressed, the unit enters recording standby mode  
with remaining the Sync recording setting.

Automatic track division  
DD (digital direct)  
The trigger level can also be used to divide tracks if the  
A_TRACK (auto track) function is enabled.  
When recording digitally from MD, CD or DAT, this  
mode detects a track boundary and divides the  
track.  
When this function is enabled, the unit automatically in-  
serts a track division in the recorded material.  
However, when the DD mode is on, and if the analog  
source or non-DAT/CD/MD digital connections are  
detected, the track number will be increased by the  
setting level that you set in the Level mode.  
To enable or disable automatic track division:  
1 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 Rotate and push the MULTI JOG dial to select and  
enter the modes following:

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-RW900, i.e. their  
TOC can be deleted, and if there is space, further ma-  
terial 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.  
Finalizing  
If you do not want to proceed with the finalizing pro-  
cess, press the STOP key.  
As has been explained earlier (“Finalizing” on page 7), in  
order for a disc to become a standard CD, it must have  
a Table of Contents (TOC) written to it. This process is  
known as finalizing.  
An unfinalized disc can always be distinguished on the  
CD-RW900 by the TOC indicator under the disc type on  
the display being un-lit when the disc is inserted.  
3 When finalization has been chosen, the display  
shows the TOC flashing and the remaining time. The  
unit starts counting down from a time shown on the  
display.  
4 When finalization has been finished successfully,  
Complete appears and the TOC will be lit on the  
display.  
To nalize a disc:  
1 Load the unfinalized disc, and the unit in stop mode,  
press the FINALIZE key.  
NOTE  
The display shows FINALIZE?  
During the process of finalizing, any key operation is not  
accepted.  
If you do not want to proceed with the finalizing  
process, press the FINALIZE/INS key on the front  
panel or the FINALIZE key on the remote control.  
2 To start the finalizing process, push the MULTI JOG  
dial or press the ENTER key on the remote control.  
The display shows Sure?  
Unfinalizing CD-RW discs  
If a CD-RW disc has been finalized, it is possible to  
erase the Table of Contents in the following way:  
3 To start the unfinalizing process, press the MULTI  
JOG dial or the ENTER key again.  
1 With the finalized disc loaded and the unit in stop  
mode, press the ERASE/DEL key on the front panel  
or the ERASE key on the remote control.  
When unfinalization has been chosen, the display  
shows the Erase flashing and the remaining time.  
The unit starts counting down from a time shown on  
the display.  
Rortate the MULTI JOG dial or press the SKIP keys  
on the remote control to select UNFINALIZE?. Push  
the MULTI JOG dial or press the ENTER key to  
confirm.  
4 When finalization has been finished successfully,  
Complete appears on the display, yet the TOC will  
go off.
