discs) your own audio Compact Discs. Naturally the recorder
can also be used to play all pre-recorded CDs.
If one of these components is missing, please inform your sup-
plier immediately. Save the packaging material it may come in
handy if you move the appliance.

Only authorized technicians are allowed to open the appli-
ance casing or to perform repairs or maintenance.
2
CD-RW (multiple recording):

will only playback in CD players offering CD-RW compatibil-
ity. Products that offer CD-RW playback compatibility are
available from Marantz, Marantz Professional, and
Superscope. Please contact your dealer for more informa-
tion on these products.
Compact Discs Care

tions:
ReWritable
ReWritable
-
-
-
In direct sunlight or near a source of heat like a heater.
In a place which is damp or dirty.
In a place which could be exposed to rain, such as near
a window.
Note:
- Most DVD players cannot playback CD-R discs and some
cannot playback CD-RW discs because of laser power differ-
ences.
- Some CD players may be able to playback finalized CD-RW
discs.
- Some CD players can not play the finalized CD-R discs be-
cause of the low reflectivity of such discs.
Always keep the disc surface clean.
Up to six billion data units are recorded on the front side of the
disc. When cleaning the disc surface, always be sure to use a
special compact disc cleaner and wipe as shown below.
The CDR500 is able to record onto any 1X or 2X compatable
CD-R and CD-RW disc, including discs for Consumer use and
Professional (computer) discs. For a list of recommended
discs, please see the Marantz Professional website at
Note:
For both CD-R and CD-RW discs, only discs that are compat-
ible with 1X or 2X recording should be used.
Wipe in a radial direction.
Do not wipe in circumferential direction.
It is forbidden to copy material protected by copyright, in-
cluding computer programs, films, television and audio re-
cordings. This appliance may not be used for applications
of this type.

INTRODUCTION
•
Do not use record cleaner to clear a disc, as this will ad-
versely affect the disc surface.
•
•
Store discs properly by placing them in their disc cases.
Do not attach a piece of paper or sticker on the label side of
disc. When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental CD
label with paste protruded from the edge or when a disc has
a trace of such a sticky object, do not attempt to play the disc.
If such a disc is played on the CD player, impossibility of tak-
ing out the disc or other malfunction may result.
•
Write only on the printed side of a CD-R or CD-RW, and only
with a soft felt-tipped pen.
•
•
Do not use a disc with a special shape.
Do not attempt to play a disc with a special shape such as a
heart-shaped disc or octagonal disc. Otherwise the equip-
ment malfunction may result.
Maintenance
Clean the CDR500 with a soft, slightly dampened lint-free cloth.
Do not use any cleaning agents as they may have a corrosive
effect.
Do not expose the CDR500, batteries or CDs to humidity, rain,
sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct
sunlight).
If the CDR500 in unable to read CDs correctly, use a commonly
available cleaning CD to clean the lens before taking the CD
player to be repaired. Other cleaning methods may destroy the
lens. Always keep the tray closed to avoid dust on the lens.
The lenses may cloud over when the CDR500 is suddenly
moved from cold to warm surroundings. It is not possible to play
a CD then. Leave the CDR500 in a warm environment until the
moisture evaporates.

RECORDING
The numbers between parentheses refer to the fold-out.
Recording modes
Remarks about recording
The CDR500 offers several recording modes.
•
The recording procedure is the same for CD-Rs and CD-
RWs.
For recording from internal CD-Player:
•
If the disc already contains recordings, the CD-Recorder will
automatically search for the end of the last track, so that re-
cording can start from there.
-
-
-
(double speed recording) - fast recording
of a disc or programmed tracks.
(normal speed recording) - listening to a
recording while making it.
•
There must be at least 7 seconds of recording time left
on the disc, otherwise you will not be able to enter record
(double speed recording and auto-finalize) - fast
recording of a disc or programmed tracks. Recording will be
finalized automatically.
standby mode.
will light up.
•
•
•
A maximum of 99 tracks can be recorded on a disc. Minimum
allowable track length is 4 seconds.
-
(Disc-At-Once double speed recording
and auto-finalize) - fast recording of a complete disc for mas-
tering purposes. Disc will be recorded as a finalized disc.
Recordings from DAT or DCC players will not always stop
automatically.
SRC (Sample Rate Conversion)
This CD-Recorder can perform Sample Rate Conversion on
the incoming digital signal, it is capable of handling sources
ranging from 11 kHz up to 56 kHz.
If a non 44.1 kHz (± 100 PPM) source is connected, this CD-
Recorder will automatically switch on the SRC.
For recording from external sources:
-
(SYNC recording) - to make an auto-
matic recording of an external source simply by starting the
source.
-
(manual start recording) - to start a
manual recording from an external source.
•
-
If the digital source is 44.1kHz (± 100PPM) the SRC will be
automatically bypassed.
If the recording source is a special disc such as HDCD or
DTS, you have to
Note:
- When Auto track is on (default setting) during manual re-
cording, track numbers will automatically be increased
during recording.
•
•
•
set source sampling frequency to 44.1kHz.
use a digital connection.
set the digital rec-volume of the CDR500 to 0 dB.
Notes about CD-Text:
- Discs and tracks copied from the internal CD-Player drive will
have the same CD-Text information as the source.
-
•
When you copy the tracks from a DAT recorded by different
sampling frequencies, noise might be recorded in the disc
when the sampling rate changes.
See page 23 for information about the recording menu set-
tings.
- CD-Text information is not passed thourgh external analog
and digital connections. Therefore, discs and tracks copied
from an external CD source that contains CD-Text informa-
tion will not recieve any CD-Text information from the source.
Important:
If you want to play a recorded CD-R disc on any regular CD
player, it must first be finalized. (See FINALIZING/
UNFINALIZING page 15.)
Warning:
Recording is no longer possible after finalizing a CD-R
disc!
Finalized CD-RW discs play only on CD-RW compatible CD
players.
If the disc is a CD-RW and is already finalized you must
unfinalize it first to record onto it.
-
If a finalized CD-R disc is inserted in the CD-Recorder drive,
will be displayed. Recording is not
possible.
-
If a finalized CD-RW disc is inserted in the CD-Recorder
drive,

played when the REC MODE (10) is pressed. If the REC

Disc At Once (DAO) recording
- Once DAO recording is started, you cannot stop recording.
The DAO function makes a complete copy of a source CD with-
out stopping. Therefore, the lead-in (TOC), program (audio
data), and lead-out portions of the disc are all recorded without
linking point errors. Linking point errors occur every time the
laser starts and stops a recording, including when a disc is fi-
nalized.
- The DAO function cannot record correctly if the source CD
disc has scratches or dust particles.
Important:
The DAO function will not allow copying in the following
A disc recorded using DAO should be completely free of any
linking point errors which will allow DAO recorded discs to be
used as a master for duplication. The DAO function can also be
used for discs that are having trouble playing in some CD play-
ers, where the DAO function can act as a “clean up” so that a
clean, error free copy can be made of a bad disc.
situations:
- The source disc is an un-finalized CD-R or CD-RW.
- The recording disc is not blank.
Because the DAO function will record the lead-in area, the
program area and read-out area continuously, you don't
have to finalized the recorded disc.
Make sure that the recording and source disce are ab-
solutely free of scratches and dust particles.

display and you cannot add more text data.
In this case, you need to free up more space in text memory.
You can either finalize one or more disc(s) to transfer the text
data to each disc, or erase (part of) the text data in the text
memory.
Note:
When the text memory is full depends on the amount of the
input text data per disc and the number of discs.
Typically the text memory can store for 50 discs of the text data
consisting of 60 characters of an artist name or title for 20
tracks.

Text Memory or the text for a disc can be erased by following
the procedure below.
Note:
The TRACK INCR (73) buttons will mark a track mark during
both Auto Track ON and OFF recording.
Note:
The text for all unfinalized discs is accessible during the Text
Memory Review mode. You do not need to insert the corre-
sponding disc to erase its text.
The most efficient way to record from a digital source is via a digital
connection that contains user data. The user data part of a digital
signal provides track information to the CD recorder. User data is
usually found only in an SPDIF format digital connection. The
AES/EBU standard does support user data information.

Press STORE/MENU (12, 83) on the deck or the remote

If Auto Track is ON and the source you are recording from is
analog or digital without user data, the CDR500 will use a si-
lence gap to mark tracks. As the chart below indicates, once
the source signal drops below -55dB, the CDR500 will look for
2.7 seconds of no signal (-55dB or below). When the source
signal returns and reaches a level of -35dB, the CDR500 will
