About Pioneer PD-RW739 CD Recorder

The Pioneer PDR-W739 CD recorder serves the dual purpose of playing and recording audio CDs. It boasts a three-CD drawer-style changer on the left side and a CD-R (write once) and CD-RW (rewritable) recording deck on the right.This model employs the latest CD recording technologies, including 2x write speed, 2x finalization (the process required to listen to CD-Rs on standard CD players), autosync recording, Record Strategy Control (which optimizes recording for different brands of recordable media), and fade in/out recording capabilities (for those times when the last song doesn't quite fit).Trying to make a digital copy of a disc that is itself a digital copy? The PDR-W739's record-industry-appeasing SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) won't let you. You can, however, make an analog copy--when it reads an SCMS flag, the PDR-W739 automatically switches to an internal, auto-level-setting analog recording mode, which doesn't sound quite as good as a bit-for-bit digital copy but does achieve duplication.The PDR-W739 uses Burr Brown 24-bit, 96 kHz PCM1716 digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital converters, which sample at higher resolution than standard CDs to ensure the signal integrity of your audio.For playback, you can relay play all three CDs in the changer and a disc in the record deck, in sequence. Other convenience features include best-selection memory (which remembers up to 32 tracks from different discs for instant recall when the discs are loaded), one-button recording, and auto-level control for no-brainer analog recording (prevents unwanted digital distortion from too-loud input levels).To minimize mechanical errors, Pioneer's exclusive Record Strategy Control circuit alters the laser output in response to the characteristics of the brand of CD-R or CD-RW you're using.
