DAC Recorder Recording from an Audio CD Recording from Other Devices The DAC Recorder allows you to convert and record unencrypted titles in MP3 compression format, or as uncompressed WAV files. The Recorder uses titles played from an audio CD on your computer's CD-ROM drive, or input through the Line In or Microphone In jacks on your audio card. To display the Recorder: 1. Click the Record button on the Player controls. Or, click Options at the top of the Player window and select View on the menu. Click on Show Recorder. To record from an audio CD: 1. With the Recorder displayed, insert an audio CD into your CD-ROM drive. 2. If you are connected to the Internet, CDDB returns the information associated with your CD, if available. If not available, you can enter it manually. If not entered, the titles are referred to generically, for example, as Track 1, Track 2, etc. 3. On the DAC Player, click on Options, select Recorder, and click on Settings. Or, right-click on the gray areas of the Recorder to display the Options menu. 4. When the settings are correct, click OK to close the Settings dialog. 5. On the Recorder, select the titles you want to record or click All at the top of the list to record all of the titles on the audio CD. 6. Click the Start button to begin recording. The Recorder window indicates the progress of each title that is being recorded. When a title has been recorded successfully, a green box is placed in the list next to the title and the title is included in the Music Library. You may record from sources connected to your computer through your audio card. For example, a tape recorder connected to the Line In jack found on most audio cards, or a microphone attached to a Microphone In jack. The information shown in the DAC Recorder window may change slightly; the recording process remains as described for an audio CD. Using Your NOMAD II Software 27
