When recording with the DX-R700, you must use compact discs with the following marks printing on them:
Cautions regarding copyrights
The lyrics and melodies composing the musical elements of media and musical performances from radio broadcasts, compact discs, records, music tapes, original cassettes, and other media are protected equally by copyright law. Therefore, the sale, transition, distribution, and re-release in mediaform, or use as background music in stores and the like, is strictly forbidden without the previous express consent from the copyright holder.

FOR CONSUMER FOR CONSUMER USE FOR MUSIC USE ONLY
CD-R finalization process
After recording onto a CD-R disc, it is necessary to perform the finalization process before the CD-R can be played in CD players. After the finalization process is completed, you cannot perform additional recordings.
(A disc with any of the above markings.) Recording cannot be performed on discs that do not have one of the above markings. Copyright fees have been enacted by copyright laws, and these fees are included in the price of CD-R*1 and CD-RW*2 discs, as well as discs labeled with FOR CONSUMER, FOR CONSUMER USE, and FOR MUSIC USE ONLY. Therefore, the recording of music protected by copyright laws with these discs is permitted for personal use. However, copying for purposes other than personal use requires the permission of the copyright holder.
CD-ReWritable (CD-RW) discs
CD-RW discs cannot be played in normal CD players even after finalization. CD-RW discs can only be played on players compatible with CD-RW discs. Also, with CD-RW discs, recording can be erased even after finalization.

Compact discs

Always use compact discs with the following mark (optical digital audio discs):

CD TEXT

CD TEXT is a feature added to audio CDs that provides the ability to deliver text information (alphabetic letters, symbols, and numbers) such as disc titles, artist names, track titles, etc. Commercial audio CDs that contain this text information bear the following mark.

Notes on discs

Never use heart-shaped, octagonal, or other special shaped discs as they may damage the internal mechanisms of the DX-R700.

I Cleaning

Dirt and contaminants on discs can obstruct the pickup of the signals and lead to deterioration the sound. When dirty, clean the data side with a soft dry cloth, wiping from the inside of the disc toward the outside.
Do not play CD-ROMs intended for computer use or non-audio compact discs. Doing so may cause highpitched noises or other unpredictable results that may damage speakers, amplifiers, and other connected components.

I Handling discs

Be careful not to touch the data side of the disc (the side that does not have printing on it). Always hold discs by the edges or by using the hole in the middle.
If the dirt is excessive, soak the cloth in water, wring it out, and then wipe the disc surface clean. Next, using a soft dry cloth, wipe the moisture from the disc surface. Do not use conventional record cleaners or antistatic agents. Also, never use benzene, thinners, or other volatile agents as they may damage the disc surface.
I Cautions for disc storage

Label side

Data side
Do not store discs in locations exposed to direct sunlight, near heat emitting devices, and other locations of excessive heat, or locations of extremely low temperatures. Also, always store discs properly in their protective cases.
Never place labels or stickers on the data side or label side of the discs. Also, do not write on the discs or allow them to become scratched.
I Cautions when using rented compact discs
Do not use discs that have cellophane tape attached to them or rental compact discs that have rental labels attached. If the tape is sticking out or peeling off, the disc may not be able to be ejected and the DX-R700 may become damaged. Condensation When moving the DX-R700 from a cold location to a hot location, when quickly heating a cold location with a furnace, or other similar situation, condensation may occur. This may not only cause improper operation of the device, but may also damage the discs and components. If condensation has occurred, turn on the DXR700 and leave it running for 1 to 2 hours. If you will not use the DX-R700, then eject any disc inside.
I Do not use 8-cm CD adapters

1 Connecting to an amplifier
Connect the DX-R700 to the CDR, TAPE or MD terminal on the amplifier. Connect the red connectors of the supplied audio connection cables to the R-channel terminals and the white connectors to the L-channel terminals. Make sure the connectors are properly inserted all the way. If the connectors are not properly connected, noise or improper operation may result. Do not bundle the audio cables together with power cords or speaker cables. Doing so may cause deterioration of the audio signal.

2 Connecting the z cable

With Onkyo components that are equipped with an z connector, use the supplied z cable to connect the z connector to the z connector of the DX-R700. The z connectors are only effective if they are used in conjunction with an Onkyo amplifier with an z connector. Do not connect to a component other than an Onkyo component with an z connector. Doing so may damage the DX-R700. The function of the upper and lower z connectors are the same. Connect to either one. Connecting the z cable only does not make the system operational. You must also connect the audio cables as well.
3 Connecting to the digital input
Using the digital input, you can record digital audio from compact disc players, DAT decks, and other digital audio components that have a digital output. Connect using the supplied optical digital cable and either the DIGITAL INPUT 1 or 2 input on the DX-R700. You can also connect to amplifiers that are equipped with digital output terminals. Notes: The optical digital terminal is provided with a protection cap installed. When necessary, remove this protection cap and store it safely. When not using the optical digital input terminal, be sure to put the cap back on the terminal. To perform digital input recording, you must connect to the optical digital input terminal. If the digital connection is not made, D.In Unlock will appear in the display.
4 Connecting to the digital output

Auto finalization

To use auto finalization, press the FINALIZE button repeatedly during recording until Auto On appears. (The FINALIZE indicator appears flashing.) Finalization starts automatically when the DX-R700 is set in the state of Signal Wait for 1 minute after interruption of the input signal. If Name Disc appears when you press the FINALIZE button You cannot use auto finalization. This is because the disc has track names but it has no disc name. Follow the steps below to finalize. 1. Enter a disc name after recording completes (see page 28). 2. Press the FINALIZE button to finalize the disc (see page 33).
6 Press the o REC button.
The DX-R700 enters the input standby state, Signal Rec appears in the display, and then Signal Wait appears flashing alternately with the time display.
To cancel auto finalization
Press the FINALIZE button repeatedly until Auto Off appears. (The FINALIZE indicator disappears.) Note: If Check Level flashes and recording does not start, then the recording source was likely already playing and not allowing recording to start. First stop the recording source and then resume operations.
Notes on the signal synchronous recording
When the level sync function is turned on during analog recording, the track numbers are updated automatically as soon as audible sound is detected after 2 seconds or more of silence. If placed in the state of Signal Wait for 1 minute, the DX-R700 enters the recording standby state with the signal synchronous recording canceled. When the auto finalization is turned on, finalization automatically starts. When D.In Unlock appears in the front display during the signal synchronous recording (digital input), the DX-R700 cancels the recording mode and enter to the recording standby state. When the signal synchronous recording is performed with an Onkyo CD player connected to the DX-R700 using the z terminal, pressing the stop button on the CD player will not stop the DX-R700, but place it in the Signal Wait state.
7 Verify that Signal Wait is flashing
together with the time display and then start the playback of the recording source.
Recording starts as soon as the DX-R700 receives signals from the recording source.

Using the level sync function
