TEAC CD-RW880 CD Recorder with Remote Reviews
You WILL have to read the instructions carefully, but is works pretty good. This product burns an original CD ok. However, I was disappointed in the short range of the remote control But it requires a certain type of CD (digital audio).
You have to use the analog input for lp's by pushing the input button on the front panel until analog shows up on the display and then push the auto/manual button until the manual input comes up on the dispay. It helps if you write down the song times on a sheet of paper so you can know when the songs will end. Once you have the optimal recording level set you are ready to record. You also have to manually track each song by pushing the record button between each song so you can separate the tracks. Just hook it up to your receiver and start recording your lp's in no time. Don't bother with the computer method this is much simpler to use and it works great. First put in a blank cd-r audio disc in the recorder and wait for the blank disc shows up on the display.
I love it and I am getting back to recording my albums like I used to when I had a cassete recorder. This way you can assure you will track each song properly without any problems. I highly recomend this Teac cd-r recorder and soon you will be making your own cd audio disks and loving it. This is old school and I love it. Then play your record and push record and wait for record pause to show up and you can set your recording level by using the level plus or minus buttons. I almost bought a lp to mp3 product to record on my computer until I seen this product on Amazon.com.
1. It makes good audio CDs most of the time. This could be a problem causeed by my older CD-RWs.
If I have a noisy record it works most of the time. 2. I like the adjustable automatic track marking feature. Audio CDRs are widely available, however, audio CD-RWs, the rewritable kind are NOT.
I like using CD-RWs to make the first copy because errors can be corrected. I am down to my last three TDK re-writeable audio CDs. When it doesn't work I get "REC ERROR" or "LOAD ERROR" and it stops. Recording from other CD players with the digital input sometimes does not work. 3.
I've had the following troubles:. I've had the Teac CD-RW880 since July 2008. It picks up most track changes when I adjust it up to -30db. Playback: On a few CDRs that have a long tracks of 15 minutes or more, a CD recorded on the TEAC will sound choppy when played on the TEAC, but fine when played on regular CD players. I use it to copy my many LPs onto CDs for traveling and for work.
I've made around 50 good CDs, and had to throw away maybe 10 bad disks.
Functions EXACTLY as advertised, finalizes quickly, works equally well w/ both Fuji, and TDK RW's. Minor complaint: the digital recording volume control is difficult to fade in/out, as it graduates in steps, and is not as smooth as a rheostat type vol control would be.
I have nothing against TEAC as I own a reel-to-reel and a cassette deck and both are outstanding. I had debated this for well over a year and sure enough as soon as I ordered it I found a better alternative - one that is way less money, does not require an engineering degree nor runs through your PC's soundcard. It works as advertsied. It shows you how simple it is and the cost is 70% less than the TEAC alternative. I found it locally, but Amazon has it $10 less than retail. Xitel INport Deluxe [Record From Your Stereo to Your Computer] It comes with cords and everything. Sony uses Xitel products. Nothing was wrong with the unit.
You can even download and print the manual (I was unsure about Vista). I just received my TEAC unit today and I put the return paperwork on it and sent it right back to Amazon without opening it. A Best Buy. If you're missing equipment like a computer, the TEAC is the way to go that's not too complicated. Check it out on Amazon - "Xitel INport Deluxe".
