The Marantz sets track marks when the dB level falls
below a certain point for more than 3 seconds.

Setting this up is especially difficult when you're
transcribing LPs, because they are relatively noisy.


I doubt it. IIRC the cut off point is -40 dB.


There's two sides to this story, and that is only one. If you set your
machine to drop in track marks at -40 dB, you run the risk of putting
track marks in fade-outs long before they are totally faded out.

Not ideal, granted. IIRC, you can also manually set
the tracks.


Takes mucho hand-and-eye coordination.


Why?


This one you'll have to learn for yourself Jenn.

RC (the last time I used the device was about 3
years ago) you just punch in the track markers before
finalization.


That's not how the CD recorders I've used work. You have to punch in the
track markers as you are recording. How else would the poor dumb machine
know where to put them?


I agree, its the only way it worked for me, and its why I hardly ever used
the damn thing.
I had a HArman Kardan CDR-2.

"At least" I have the entire early works of blues
singer Tracy Nelson on cd, now.
