    and crackles which may come from an older vinyl 
    recording, for example). If the “noise floor” is higher 
    than the threshold, synchronized recording will not 
    take place (the rehearsal facility can be used here 
    (4.4, “Rehearsal”) to help):
    Because synchronized recording can be turned on 
    and off while recording is taking place, it is therefore 
    possible to record with a synchronized automatic 
    start, and a manual end, or vice versa.
    When the source material is being played back 
    before synchronized recording is enabled, the condi-
    tions under which synchronized recording will start 
    (after synchronized recording has been enabled) are:
    When the signal drops below the threshold for one 
    second or more and then rises above the threshold 
    again (this is the general condition, of which starting 
    synchronized recording from a stopped or paused 
    source is a special case):
    Alternatively, when recording digitally from sources 
    (MD, CD and DAT) which output track divisions, 
    synchronized recording starts when a track division 
    is received, regardless of the level:To stop synchronized recording:
    1The unit must be in record mode, and the 
    SYNC 
    indicator in the display must be lit.
    2Stop the source. After a few seconds, the unit 
    enters record ready mode. The time between 
    the stopping of the source and entering record 
    ready mode is used to record a gap at the end 
    of the track.
    3If no changes are made to the unit’s controls, 
    restarting the source restarts recording, as the 
    unit is still in sync mode and will start record-
    ing again when the source is detected.
    NOTE
    When recording in sync mode, you may notice a 
    slight delay between starting the source, and the CD-
    RW700 responding. This is due to the way in which 
    the unit works, storing the data in a memory buffer 
    before writing it to the disc. The resulting delay is 
    therefore not a cause for concern—all audio data 
    received between the start and end points will be 
    recorded.
    4.3.2 Automatic track division
    The trigger level, as set above (4.3.1, “Synchronized 
    recording” can also be used to divide tracks if the A-
    TRACK (auto track) function is enabled.
    When this function is enabled, the unit automatically 
    inserts a track division in the recorded material 
    when:
    • recording digitally from MD, CD or DAT, an incre-
    ment signal is detected and the sound level rises 
    above the threshold:
    or
    • increment signals are unavailable (e.g. analog 
    recording or digital sources other than MD. CD or 
    DAT) and the sound level has dropped below the 
    time level

    threshold for more than two seconds, and sound  
    has re-started
    To enable or disable automatic track division: 
    1 With a recordable disc inserted, and with the  
    unit in record ready mode, press the 
    MENU key 
    (
    9 or 7) repeatedly until A_TRACK>XX 
    is shown, where 
    XX may be ON or OFF.
    2 Turn the 
    MULTI JOG control B or use the  
    SKIP
     keys Ito change the value to ON or 
    OFF.
    The 
    A-TRACK indicator at the top right of the 
    display lights when the auto track function is 
    enabled.
    Automatic track division can be turned on or off 
    while recording is taking place.
    NOTE
    When recording certain types of material (e.g. certain  
    types of classical music or spoken word) through the 
    analog connections, since the track divisions are 
    determined by relative silence, it is possible that spu-
    rious track divisions will be inserted. Under these 
    conditions, it may be better to use manual track divi-
    sion (4.2.3,  “Manual track division ”). 
    However, if recording through a digital connection, the track  
    number will be incremented only when a track division sig-
    nal is received, followed by a rise in volume.  
    A fall and subsequent rise in volume alone when recording  
    digitally from CD, MD or DAT is not suf ficient to trigger an automatic track increment.
    You may find it helpful to use the track restriction  
    facility (see 4.2.4, “Restricting the number of 
    tracks”) together with the automatic track division.  
    For instance, if you have recorded two albums on one  
    DAT tape, and you wish to make two separate CDs 
    from this tape, you can use the 
    MULTI JOG control to 
    set the number of tracks to the number of tracks com- 
    prising the first album. 
    When the final track of the first album has been  
    recorded, the unit automatically performs the PMA 
    writing procedure and enters stop mode.
     
     
    4.3.4 Digital direct
    As mentioned earlier, the digital direct mode 
    bypasses some of the input circuitry of the CD-
    RW700 (the frequency convertor and the digital level 
    control) to write directly to the disc. 
    To enable or disable digital direct recording: 
    1 Ensure that the input source is set to 
    DIGITAL 
    (either 
    COAXIAL or OPTICAL).
    2 Press the 
    DIGITAL DIRECT key 5 (main unit 
    only). The display shows 
    \b_\birect XX 
    where 
    XX is ON or OFF.

    3Press the DIGITAL DIRECT key to toggle 
    between 
    ON and OFF.
    When digital direct recording is enabled, the 
    DIGITAL indicator in the display flashes slowly.
    NOTE
    As mentioned earlier, the digital direct feature 
    bypasses the frequency convertor. Recording is 
    therefore only possible from sources recorded with 
    44.1 kHz sampling frequency.
    4.3.5 Rec mute function
    The rec mute function allows instant cut-off of the 
    input signal, and records four seconds of silence on 
    the disc.
    1While recording is in progress, press the 
    REC 
    MUTE
     key G.
    The display shows 
    REC MUTE, the meters 
    stop displaying the current level and the moni-
    tored sound is cut.
    2After about four seconds, the unit enters 
    record ready mode.
    NOTE
    This function is only available from the remote control 
    unit. It is not possible to use this function with the 
    main unit only.
    4.3.6 Fade-in and fade-out
    To provide smooth beginnings and endings to 
    recorded tracks, the unit provides fade facilities. 
    Fade-ins are from –∞ (silence) to the set input level 
    (4.1.1, “Signal volume”) and fade-outs go from the 
    current input volume to silence.
    The fade-in and fade-out times can be set indepen-
    dently in increments of one second, from 1 second to 
    24 seconds.
    To set the fade times:
    1Press the 
    MENU key (9 or 7) repeatedly until 
    the display shows 
    FADE IN > XXS, 
    where 
    XX is the current fade-in time, in 
    seconds.
    2Turn the 
    MULTI JOG control B or use the  
    SKIP
     keys Ito change the value of the fade-in 
    time.
    3Press the 
    MENU key again so that the display 
    shows 
    FADE OUT> XXS, where XX is 
    the current fade-out time, in seconds.
    4Turn the 
    MULTI JOG control or use the  SKIP 
    keys to change the value of the fade-out time.It is possible to set the fade-in time only (per-
    form step 5 after step 2) or the fade-out time 
    only (in step 1, press the 
    MENU key until the 
    fade-out time menu item is shown).
    To perform the fade-in:
    1With a recordable disc loaded, press the 
    RECORD key (K or E) so that the unit enters 
    record ready mode.
    2Start the source material, and press the 
    FADER 
    key (
    M or 9). 
    The display shows 
    FADE IN for the time 
    specified in the menu item above.
    As the fade progresses, the monitored signal 
    gradually becomes louder, reflecting the level 
    recorded on disc.
    To perform a fade-out:
    1While recording, press the 
    FADER key (M or 
    9).
    The display shows 
    FADE OUT for the time 
    specified in the menu above.
    As the fade progresses, the monitored signal 
    gradually becomes quieter, reflecting the level 
    recorded on disc.
    2When the end of the fade-out time is reached, 
    the unit goes into record ready mode. Record-
    ing can be restarted with the 
    FADER key or the 
    PLAY or PAUSE keys.
    The fade-in and fade-out times can be reset to new 
    values while recording is in progress.
    Fades are also possible in digital direct mode (4.3.4, 
    “Digital direct”).
    4.4 Rehearsal
    There are two areas in which the unit’s rehearsal 
    facilities can be used: synchronized recording (4.3.1, 
    “Synchronized recording”) and automatic track divi-
    sion (4.3.2, “Automatic track division”).
    The purpose of the rehearsal facilities is to allow you 
    to override the automatic synchronized recording and 
    track division facilities where necessary.
    Here is an example where this facility may be of 
    value: 
    A piece has been recorded on DAT, with a verbal 
    count-in immediately prior to the first drum beat. 
    This count-in is not to be recorded as a part of the 
    CD track, but the threshold level has been set to a  
    						
    							4 • Recording—Rehearsal
    24 TASCAM CD-RW700
    level where the fourth count will trigger recording (–
    24 dB — this is the limit of the threshold sensitivity 
    and cannot be adjusted further). 
    When the rehearsal facility is used, the source is cued 
    up and played, and the first few seconds of the track 
    are sampled and looped. The position of the loop can 
    be adjusted.
    When this offset has been set, synchronized record-
    ing takes place with the start occurring at the new 
    location:
    This example shows how the start time can be moved 
    forward, in order to eliminate unwanted “false 
    starts”. It is also possible to “slip” the start time 
    backwards, in order to record a quiet passage that 
    would otherwise not trigger the sync recording facil-
    ity (this is done by the use of a memory buffer).
    As well as being used for changing the start time of 
    synchronized recording, the start of an automatic 
    track division can also be trimmed backwards and 
    forwards in a similar way.Both the sync start trim and the track start trim can 
    take the same value and can be used in the same 
    recording.
    The maximum trim value is 125 frames on either side 
    of the original point (represented by 
    0), where there 
    are 75 frames in a second (i.e. 1.67 seconds).
    4.4.1 Rehearsal for synchronized 
    recording
    To perform a synchronized recording, using the 
    rehearsal mode to slip the start of the track forwards 
    or backwards:
    1Load a recordable disc into the unit and make 
    sure the unit is in stop mode.
    2Cue the source material to the start of the 
    source track to be recorded (i.e. in the example 
    above, this would be just before the count-in).
    3Press the 
    RHSL key 4 so that the display 
    shows 
    Waiting Sync.
    4Start playing the source. When the start of the 
    track is detected (as explained in 4.3.1, “Syn-
    chronized recording”), the display changes to 
    Sync RHSL.
    5If the rehearsal does not start at the region of 
    the true start point, press the 
    RHSL key once 
    again to “re-arm” the trigger.
    6After nine seconds, the message changes from 
    Sync RHSL, and the sampled data loops 
    in a four-second loop. The display shows 
    Sync 0:0X, where X is the current sec-
    ond of the loop.
    7Stop the source.
    8Turn the 
    MULTI JOG control B to adjust the 
    point of the loop. The display shows:
    TRIM = +XXXf or 
    TRIM = -XXXf, where XXX can be a 
    number between 
    0 and 125 and changes 
    back to the 
    Sync 0:0x display when the 
    loop restarts.
    Every time the trim value is changed, the loop 
    starts replaying from the new start point.
    9When the new start point has been set, press 
    the 
    STOP key (H or J).
    10Cue up the source material to the original 
    point set in step 2.
    11Press the 
    RECORD key (K or E) to enter 
    record ready mode, and then press the 
    SYNC 
    REC
     key (L or F).

    12Start playing the source material. The unit 
    starts recording, with the start point being 
    determined by the trim value.
    NOTE
    If a trim setting is made for the sync start, this will 
    apply to all sync starts and track divisions made in 
    the future until the value is reset using the procedure 
    above.
    4.4.2 Rehearsal for track division
    In the same way that the automatic threshold may 
    produce a false trigger, starting recording at the 
    wrong point, the automatic threshold may produce 
    false track divisions.
    By rehearsing the point at which the track division is 
    to be made, it is possible to trim the division point so 
    that it corresponds to a the track division which is 
    actually required.
    1Load a recordable disc into the unit and make 
    sure the unit is in stop mode.
    2If the unit is not already in auto track mode, 
    set it so that the 
    A-TRACK indicator is lit on the 
    display (4.3.2, “Automatic track division”).
    3Cue the source material to a little before the 
    point of the planned track division. 
    4Press the 
    RHSL key 4 twice so that the display 
    shows 
    Waiting Inc.
    If the auto track mode has not previously been 
    selected, the display shows 
    No Inc 
    Mode
     when the key is pressed.
    5Start playing the source. When the start of the 
    track is detected (as explained in 4.3.1, “Syn-
    chronized recording”), the display changes to 
    Inc RHSL.
    6If the rehearsal does not start at the region of 
    the true track division point, press the 
    RHSL 
    key once again to “re-arm” the trigger.
    7After nine seconds, the message changes from 
    Inc RHSL, and the sampled data loops in a four-second loop. The display shows 
    Inc 
    0:0X
    , where X is the current second of the 
    loop.
    8Stop the source.
    9Turn the 
    MULTI JOG control B to adjust the 
    point of the loop. The display shows:
    TRIM = +XXXf or 
    TRIM = -XXXf, where XXX can be a 
    number between 
    0 and 125 and changes 
    back to the 
    Inc 0:0x display when the 
    loop restarts.
    10When the track division point has been fixed, 
    press the 
    STOP key (H or J).
    11Press the 
    RECORD key (K or E) to enter 
    record ready mode. The synchronized record-
    ing mode can be used here, and so the 
    SYNC 
    REC
     key (L or F) may be pressed to prepare 
    for synchronized recording.
    12Cue up the source material to the point where 
    recording is to start.
    13Start playing the source material. If sync 
    recording is not being used, start recording on 
    the CD-RW700 (otherwise recording starts 
    automatically).
    When the track division point (plus or minus the trim 
    value set earlier) is reached, the recording will divide 
    into tracks.
    Note that if a positive trim value is set (i.e. the start 
    point of the track is “slipped” to a position past the 
    “normal” start), the counter shows a minus value 
    (e.g. 
    -0.02) for the period between the “normal” 
    and the actual adjusted start position. This minus 
    value is also displayed when recording starts, if sync 
    recording has been enabled.
    NOTE
    If a trim setting is made for the track division, this will 
    apply to all track divisions and sync starts made in 
    the future until the value is reset using the procedure 
    above.

    5 - 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-RW700, 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.
    5.1 Finalizing
    As has been explained earlier (1.2, “Finalizing”), 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-RW700 by the 
    NO TOC indicator under the 
    disc type on the display being lit when the disc is 
    inserted.
    To finalize a disc:
    1With the unfinalized (recordable) disc loaded, 
    and the unit in stop mode, press the 
    FINALIZE 
    key (
    F or C).
    The display shows 
    Finalize OK?.
    2If you do not want to proceed with the finaliz-
    ing process, press any other key (such as the 
    STOP key).
    3To start the finalizing process, press the 
    MULTI 
    JOG
     control B or press the ENTER key 8.
    4If finalization has been chosen, the display 
    changes. The 
    NO TOC indicator goes out, and the 
    word 
    TOC and the REC indicator flashes in the 
    display. The unit starts counting down from a 
    time shown on the display (about 1 minute 10 
    seconds).
    5After finalization, a 
    CD-RW NO TOC changes to 
    CD-RW and a CD-R NO TOC changes to a CD.
    NOTE
    Although CD-R discs finalized on the CD-RW700 
    may be replayed on ordinary CD players, remember 
    that finalized CD-RW discs may not play on CD play-
    ers.
    5.1.1 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:1With the finalized disc loaded and the unit in 
    stop mode, press the 
    ERASE key (G or D).
    2If the display does not show the word 
    Unfinalize?, turn the MULTI JOG 
    control 
    B or use the  SKIP keys I until it is 
    displayed.
    3If you do not want to proceed with the unfinal-
    izing process, press any other key (such as the 
    STOP key).
    4To start the unfinalizing process, press the 
    MULTI JOG control B or press the ENTER key 
    8.
    5If unfinalization has been chosen, the 
    NO TOC 
    indicator starts flashing in the display, and the 
    word 
    ERASE also starts flashing. The unit 
    starts counting down from a time shown on the 
    display (depending on the disc and material, 
    this value will be between 50 seconds and 1 
    minute 30 seconds).
    6After unfinalization, a 
    CD-RW indicator changes 
    to a 
    CD-RW NO TOC indicator.
    5.2 Erasing
    Unfinalizing (described above) is a special case of 
    erasing a disc. It is also possible to erase a track or 
    tracks, starting with the last-recorded track, a whole 
    disc, or to “refresh” a disc.
    NOTE
    Erase procedures are possible only on a CD-RW disc. 
    Even if a CD-RW disc has been finalized, selecting an 
    erase procedure will automatically unfinalize it prior to era-
    sure. The disc may then have to be re-finalized. Remember 
    that it is not possible to perform any erase procedures on a 
    CD-R disc.
    5.2.1 Erasing tracks
    It is possible to erase the last recorded track, the last 
    two recorded tracks, the last three recorded tracks, 
    etc. It is not, however, possible to erase tracks in the 
    “middle” of the disc.
    1With the disc loaded, and the unit in stop 
    mode, press the 
    ERASE key (G or D).
    2If the display does not show 
    ERASE XX-
    XX?
    , where XX is the number of the last 
    track recorded on the disc, turn the 
    MULTI 
    JOG
     control B or use the  SKIP keys I until it 
    is displayed. 
    						
    							5 • After recording—Erasing
     TASCAM CD-RW700 27
    3Turn the MULTI JOG control or use the  SKIP 
    keys to change the number of the first track to 
    be erased. The highest value that this number 
    can take is the last track recorded (e.g. if 17 
    tracks have been recorded on the disc, 
    17-
    17
     means that the last track only, 17, will be 
    erased). The lowest value that this number can 
    take is 
    2 (if this number was 1, the whole disc 
    would be erased, as described below).
    4If you do not want to proceed with the erase 
    operation, press any other key (such as the 
    STOP key).
    NOTE
    If only one track has been recorded on the disc, only 
    the “erase disc” option (5.2.2, “Erasing a whole disc”) 
    is available.
    5When the range of tracks to be erased has been 
    selected, press the 
    MULTI JOG control or press 
    the 
    ENTER key 8.
    NOTE
    This operation cannot be undone. If you are going to 
    erase a track or tracks, make sure that they are 
    recordings that you really want to erase!
    6If the erase operation has been selected, the 
    word 
    ERASE flashes on the display, and the 
    timer starts counting down from 
    0:20 (20 
    seconds).
    7At the end of the countdown period, the word 
    Complete appears briefly on the display, 
    and the display returns to the track/time 
    display.
    5.2.2 Erasing a whole disc
    When you want to erase a whole disc (all the tracks 
    on a disc), follow the procedure below:
    1With the disc loaded, and the unit in stop 
    mode, press the 
    ERASE key (G or D).
    2Turn the 
    MULTI JOG control B or use the  
    SKIP
     keys I until the display shows ERASE 
    DISC?
    .
    3If you do not want to proceed with the erase 
    operation, press any other key (such as the 
    STOP key).
    4To erase the contents of the disc, press the 
    MULTI JOG control or press the ENTER key 8.
    NOTE
    This operation cannot be undone. If you are going to 
    erase a disc, make sure that it contains only record-
    ings that you really want to erase!
    5If the erase operation has been selected, the 
    word 
    ERASE flashes on the display, and the 
    timer starts counting down a time value shown 
    on the display.
    6At the end of the countdown period, the word 
    Complete appears briefly on the display, 
    and the display returns to the track/time 
    display.
    5.2.3 Refreshing a disc
    If a CD-RW disc has been corrupted at any point 
    (e.g. power has been cut off in the middle of a final-
    ize operation, etc.), or has been used in a computer or 
    another piece of equipment that makes it unreadable, 
    it is possible to “refresh” the disc to make it usable 
    again. This is equivalent to formatting a disk on a 
    computer to prepare it for use. This operation 
    destroys all data on the disc.
    1With the disc loaded, and the unit in stop 
    mode, press the 
    ERASE key (G or D).
    2Turn the 
    MULTI JOG control B or use the  
    SKIP
     keys I until the display shows DISC 
    REFRESH
    .
    3If you do not want to proceed with the refresh 
    operation, press any other key (such as the 
    STOP key).
    4To refresh the disc, press the 
    MULTI JOG con-
    trol or press the 
    ENTER key 8.
    NOTE
    This operation cannot be undone. If you are going to 
    refresh a disc, make sure that it contains only record-
    ings that you really want to erase!
    5If the erase operation has been selected, the 
    word 
    ERASE flashes on the display, and the 
    timer starts counting down. The refresh opera-
    tion typically takes around 20 minutes or so.
    6At the end of the countdown period, the word 
    Complete appears briefly on the display, 
    and the display returns to the track/time 
    display (of course, there are no tracks, and the 
    disc is as the start, with the total time of the 
    disc available for recording).
