1 - Introduction

Trademarks

• TASCAM is a registered trademark of TEAC Corporation.
• MPEG Layer-3 audio coding technology licensed from Fraunhofer IIS and Thomson.
• "Made for iPod" means that an electronic accessory has been designed to connect specifically to iPod and has been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards.

Apple is not responsible for the operation of this device or its compliance with safety and regulatory standards. iPod is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.

- Other company names, product names and logos in this document are the trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective owners.

Precautions and notes for placement and use

• The operating temperature should be between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F).
• Make sure that the unit is mounted in a level position for correct operation.
• Do not place any object on the unit for heat dissipation.
• Avoid installing this unit on top of any heat-generating electrical device such as a power amplifier.

Power supply

Connect the unit to the standard power outlet. Hold the plug when connecting and disconnecting the power cord.

Beware of condensation

If the unit (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanism, making correct operation impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the player sit for one or two hours at the new room temperature before using.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the unit, wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth. Do not wipe with chemical cleaning cloths, benzene, paint thinner, ethyl alcohol or other chemical agents to clean the unit as they could damage the surface.

About discs

In addition to audio CDs (CD-DA), the CD-200i can play CD-R and CD-RW discs on which audio CD, MP3, or WAV

format files are recorded. The CD player can also play 3-inch CDs

Handling of compact discs

• Always place the compact discs in the trays with their label facing upward.
• To remove a disc from its case, press down on the center of the disc holder, then lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
• Do not touch the signal side (the unlabeled side). Fingerprints, oils and other substances can cause errors during playback.
• To clean the signal side of a disc, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth from the center towards the outside edge. Dirt on discs can lower the sound quality, so clean them and always store them in a clean state.
• Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions, benzene, paint thinner or other chemical agents to clean CDs as they could damage the delicate playing surface. It may cause CDs to become unplayable.
• Do not apply labels or other materials to discs. Do not use discs that have had tape, stickers or other materials applied to their surface. Do not use discs that have sticky residue from stickers, etc. Such discs could become stuck in the unit or cause it to malfunction.
• Never use a commercially available CD stabilizer. Using stabilizers with this player will damage the mechanism and cause it to malfunction.
• Do not use cracked discs.
• Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using non-circular promotional, etc. discs.

- Music discs with copy control, a copy-protection system, have been released from several record companies in an attempt to protect the copyright. Since some of these discs do not comply with the CD specifications, they may not be playable on the CD-200i.

Even when the output source is changed, CD playback mode settings, the current folder and program contents are not erased.

Discs that can be played

This unit can play the following types of files and discs.

■ CD-DA (audio CD) format discs

Music CDs that are commercially available and CD-R and CD-RW discs that have been recorded as audio CD format can be played. In this manual, these types of discs are called “audio CDs.”

CAUTION

This unit cannot read CD-R discs that have not been finalized.

■ CD-ROM (data CD) format discs

This unit can play back discs with MP3 files or WAV files in ISO 9660 Level 1, Level 2 or Joliet format. In this manual, these types of discs are called “data CDs.”

NOTE

MP3 files that have a sampling frequency of 32, 44.1 or 48 kHz and a bit rate of 32–320 kbps or variable bit rate (VBR) can be played back.

WAV files that have a sampling frequency of 8 kHz – 48 kHz and are 8-bit or 16-bit can be played back.

CAUTION

• During MP3 and WAV file playback, the digital output of this unit has a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz. Digital output is possible when pitch control is ON, but the sampling frequency is altered in proportion to the pitch control value. When the pitch control function is ON, therefore, some equipment might not be able to receive the digital output of this unit.
• When using a computer or other device to create discs with MP3 files, read the manual for the software that you are using carefully.
• This unit's display can only show single-byte characters (alphabet and numbers). File with names that use Japanese, Chinese or other double-byte characters can be played back, but their names cannot be shown correctly on the display.
• The unit identifies MP3 files with the ".mp3" file extension. This unit cannot play MP3 files that do not have the ".mp3" file extension, so always include the ".mp3" file extension at the end of the name of an MP3 file. The unit cannot play files that are not in the MP3 data format even if they have the ".mp3" file extension.
• The unit identifies WAV files with the ".wav" file extension. This unit cannot play WAV files that do not have the ".wav" file extension, so always include the ".wav" file extension at the end of the name of an WAV file. The unit cannot play files that are not in the WAV data format even if they have the ".wav" file extension.
• Discs with 1,000 or more files or 513 or more folders might not play correctly.

- Depending on disc conditions, this unit might not be able to play some discs, or skips in the sound might occur.

Folders and tracks on data CDs

This unit treats all the audio files (WAV and MP3) on data CDs as “tracks.” Some data CDs store files inside folders in the same way that ordinary computers do. In addition, multiple folders can be stored inside another folder creating a multilevel structure.

This unit assigns a folder number to each folder to manage them. Folder numbers are assigned sequentially starting with the first folder at the highest level followed by the folders (subfolders) inside it. Folders inside a higher-level folder are numbered in order before the next folder in the higher-level is numbered as shown in the illustration below.

If the root folder of a data CD contains one or more audio files, it will be numbered as the first folder.

Each audio file is also assigned a track number. Track numbers are assigned in order starting from those in the lowest numbered folder.

During continuous playback of data CDs, tracks are played back just like an audio CD in the order of their assigned numbers.

Folders that do not directly contain audio files are not given numbers. For example, folders C and D in the illustration below would not be assigned numbers.

graph TD
    ROOT["ROOT (Folder 01)"] --> A["A (Folder 02)"]
    A --> B["B (Folder 03)"]
