14 - Using CDs NOTE During playback, selecting a track does not affect playback. Stop playback and start again to play the selected track. Creating an Audio CD Using this unit, you can create Audio CDs that can be played back by ordinary CD players by writing the master files created for songs to CD-R and CD-RW discs. (See "Creating a master file" on page 69.) Use the following three methods to create an Audio CD. ªª Disc At Once (DAO) Use this method to write multiple master files at one time. Since this method automatically finalizes the disc, making it playable by an ordinary CD player, you will be able to use the completed disc with other CD players right away. (See "Finalizing a CD" on page 90.) However, once DAO is completed, you will not be able to add any more tracks to the CD-R/CD-RW that was automatically finalized. ªª Track At Once (TAO) Use this method to write a single master file at a time to a CD-R/CD-RW. Use the Track At Once when you want to write files to the CD-R/CD-RW at different times. With Track At Once, the CD-R/CD-RW is not automatically finalized. Note, however, that an non-finalized CD-R/CD-RW can be played in this unit, but cannot be played in an ordinary CD player. After you have written all the master files to a disc using Track At Once, finalize the disc. (See "Finalizing a CD" on page 90.) You cannot add more tracks to a CD-R/CD-RW that has been finalized. ªª LIVE WRITER function You can use marks to divide a master file into multiple parts, and write them as multiple tracks to a disc. Using Disc At Once Use Disc At Once when you have selected multiple tracks. Using Disc At Once, you can set the order of multiple tracks as you like. Moreover, you can set the time and add silent gaps between songs. NOTE When using Disc At Once, you can also make multiple discs with the same contents. When doing so, use identical discs (same manufacturer, type and capacity). 1. When Recorder mode is Multi Track mode, press the CD button to open the CD menu screen. 2. Place a blank CD (unused CD-R/CD-RW disc or a completely erased CD-RW) on the disc tray. 3. Use the JOG/DATA dial to select (blue highlight) MASTER WRITE and then press the F4 (t) button. This opens the MASTER WRITE screen and shows a list of songs that have been recorded in master files. Master files that are not recorded at 44.1kHz or 16bit are not displayed. 4. Use the JOG/DATA dial to select (blue highlight) songs which you want to write to CD-R/CD-RW, and press the F2 (4) button to select the desired songs (selected songs check boxes are marked with 4). NOTE To remove the check mark 4 from a check box, press the F2 (4) button again while the song is selected (blue highlight). 5. Repeat step 4 above as necessary. 6. After you finish selecting songs, press the F4 (t) button. The WRITE SONG LIST screen appears. On this screen, you can change the order that the master files will be written to the CD-R/CD-RW and set the gaps between them. 87 TASCAM DP-24
