Learning about CD-R/RW discs
What is a CD-R/RW disc?
The CDX-1 lets you record your performances on a CD-RW disc, and finally use a
CD-R disc to create an original audio CD. First, here’s some basic information on CD-
R discs and CD-RW discs.
What is a CD-R disc?
CD-R (Compact Disc Recordable) is a CD to which data can be written. Data can be
written only once to a CD-R disc. It is not possible to erase or move the data that has
been written. However, you make up to 99 additions to a CD-R disc, as long as free
capacity remains.
What is a CD-RW disc?
CD-RW (Compact Disc ReWritable) is a CD that can be written and erased. Data that
has been written can be erased, and new data written. A CD-RW disc can be written
and erased approximately 1000 times.
Writing to a CD-R disc
There are several ways to write to a CD-R disc. The CDX-1 uses track at once when
it creates an original audio CD.
● Track at once:
This method allows writing to be added on a single CD-R disc. As long as capacity
remains on the CD-R disc, up to 99 additional writes can be performed as long as you
do not finalize the disc. However, if you are writing audio data, it cannot be played
on a conventional CD player until you finalize the disc. Also, once a CD-R disc has
been finalized, no further additions can be made.
