    Select B\frn Speed
    This process will allow you to adjust the duplication speed subject to your various 
    needs.
    By default, the duplication speed will be set to the optimal speed. However, 
    under some circumstances, you might want to lower the duplication speed.  Those 
    circumstances are as follows:
    • Poor Blank Media Quality – When your media quality is not good, lowering 
    down the duplication speed is necessary to make good copies.
    • Poor Master Disc Quality – If your Master Disc condition is not good, lowering 
    down the duplication speed will reduce the failure rates greatly.
    • Duplication Quality – Overall, the lower the speed, the higher the quality of 
    your duplicates. If you have time, it is a good choice to lower down the speed to 
    produce the best quality duplicates.
    Turn on your duplicator. After it has finished booting up, you will see the following 
    display.
    1. Navigate to the “Speed Selection” menu.

    Select the So\frce d\Brive
    When making a copy, you will need to specify where the master is. Is it in the Source 
    drive? Or is it an Image inside the Hard Drive? This tutorial will show you how to 
    change the Master Reading Source to satisfy your needs.
    Basically, there are 3 scenarios that require you to select the Source drive.
    1. Disc-to-Disc copy (Copy from 1st Tray) – This is the case when you would 
    normally make copies on the fly. You need to set the “Source drive” as your 
    Master Reading Source.
    2. Hard Drive-to-Disc copy – If you want to make copies from your Hard Drive 
    Image, you need to select the source as “Hard Drive”.
    There are three benefits to copy from Hard Drive:
    a. Performance – Duplicating form the Hard Drive will be able to boost 
    duplication speeds.
    b. Stability – Duplicating from Hard Drive will stabilize the duplication 
    process compared to the Disc to Disc duplicating.
    c. Convenience – With your Master Discs stored inside the Hard Drive, you 
    can have access to each one easily. There is no need to carry your Master 
    Discs; they are all stored inside the duplicator.
    3. Disc-to-Disc copy (Copy from 2nd Tray) – This is the case when your Master 
    Disc is full of scratches. You would need to use the Writer Tray as your Source 
    to make a copy and use the new copy as your new master to make more copies.
    When you turn on your duplicator, after it has booted up, you should see the 
    following signifying your duplicator is ready.
    a. Navigate to Source Selection Menu.
    Press UP or DOWN arrow button to navigate to the following screen.

    Press ENT to enter into “Source Selection” menu.
    You will see the following display:
     
    Make sure it is located at “Drive 1 Port 0.0”. If not, press the UP or 
    DOWN navigation button to search for it. There will be drive model
    information where XXXXXX is shown above.
    c. Select desired master reading device.

    A\fdio CD Editing
    This procedure will guide you in using the “Mix Audio Tracks” feature. This process 
    allows you to combine audio tracks from various CDs into a single customized 
    audio CD.
    To use this feature you need a temporary storage location to hold your music before 
    the duplicator can make it an audio CD. The following are temporary storage 
    location choices:
    • Hard Drive:
    Choosing “Hard Drive” as the temporary storage location, you will be instructed 
    to load your music files onto the Hard Drive. After all of your favorite songs are 
    selected, you will be instructed to copy them onto a blank 80 min. CD-R media.
    • Blank CD-R Media:
    Choosing “Blank CD-R” as the temporary storage location, you will be 
    instructed to copy your music files onto a blank CD-R you’ve inserted. After you 
    are finished, you will be instructed to finalize the CD-R disc.
    1. Turn on the duplicator. After the bootup is complete, you will see the following 
    display:
    2. Going to the “Mix Audio Tracks” menu. Press the UP or DOWN arrow button 
    to navigate to the following screen.
    3. If your duplicator does not have a Hard Drive installed, please skip to Step 4. 
    If your duplicator does have a Hard Drive installed, you will see the following 
    display:
    Press the UP or DOWN arrow button to select your temporary storage location.
