Save/Load of Song data (VF80EX)
Making an audio CD
The following procedure describes how to record mastered songs (using the internal mastering function) to a
CD-RW/CD-R disc to make an audio CD (CD-DA format).
The “Save PGM” menu in the Setup mode, which is used for saving song data, is also used for making an audio
CD.
<Basic information>
When making an audio CD using the VF80EX, inter-
nal mastering materials on the current drive are
recorded to a CD-RW/CD-R disc (by the CD-DA for-
mat).
You can record not only a single song but also mul-
tiple songs continuously.

After turning on the power of the VF80EX, load a non-
recorded disc to the CD-R/RW drive.
Press the [SETUP] key to enter the Setup mode.

menu and press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The display shows the screen for selecting the device

<Note>
Key operations of the VF80EX should be done af-
ter completing access to a CD-RW/CD-R disc.
Press the [ENTER/YES] key while “IDE” flashes.
After showing the model name of the connected CD-
R/RW drive, the display shows the screen for select-
ing the save mode, in which “BkUp” flashes.
To make an audio CD, select “CD-DA”. However, if
necessary, you can make the write condition setting
by selecting “Setup”. The setteing includes copy pro-
tection ON/OFF (by default, “OFF”) and mark enabled/

If you do not need to change the default write condi-
tion shown above, skip to step 7.

Use the [JOG] dial (or the [CURSOR] / key) to
select “Setup” and press the [ENTER/YES] key.

ting screen, in which you can make the copy protec-

<Note>
If an audio CD is made using a CD-R/RW disc, it can be played back only by a player that supports CD-R/RW
playback. You cannot playback such a disc by a conventional CD player that does not support CD-R/RW play-
back.
