ments (default setting: 3 seconds).

In recording standby mode, press the
FADER
key
on the remote control.
Recording begins and the sound fades in. After the
preset fade-in time, the sound is at normal level.
3
During recording, press the
FADER
key on the re-
mote control when you wish to fade-out the sound.
Fade-out begins with
Fade Out
flashing on the dis-
play then the unit enters recording standby mode.

NOTE
Fade-in or fade-out function can be operated only

Synchronized recording basically means that recording
will begin automatically when a signal is received, and
will stop when the signal ends.
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.
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
After the synchronization mode is selected, the record
ready mode must then be entered (you cannot reverse
the order of these steps).
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.

dial to adjust the level. The
level can be set from -72 dB to -24 dB in 6 dB incre-
ments. The default setting is -24 dB.

Recording begins automatically when the source
signal is detected. The source signal should be high-
er than the adjusted threshold level.
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.
