properly as audio CDs, even if the disc was finalized.
Discs created using CD-RW media may not be
playable on an ordinary CD player.

Check whether audio data have already been written to the
CD-R/RW disc. Such a disc cannot be used for backup.

When a project backup spans several discs, insert disc

the first disc that contains data of the desired project.
Cannot save a project
The project cannot be saved if the write-protect setting is
on. Turn protect off ( p. 153).

An audio file from a CD-R/RW that has not been
finalized cannot be read.
Cannot record on an external recorder
connected to the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack
Check whether the digital input has been selected as
