Reviewer: Jeffery E. Tishman, Albany, NY

After reading the horror story reviews for the "Sony RCDW500C Compact Disc Player / Recorder" I was very nervous about purchasing The Teac cd recorder. Especially since I was going to buy it before hearing about anyone else's opinion.

I'm glad I took the plunge. This unit is doing everything, and more than, I hoped.

I was making my first recording off an lp in about 5 minutes after hooking the unit up. Most of the procedure was intuitive.
The quick guide sheet got me 90% of the way towards making my first cd. Reading the manual completed the task. The quick guide sheet left out one little but important step; Defining where the music was coming from. The unit can record from an analog (record player, audio tape, etc.) or digital device (cd player). I had to define that before I could make my 1st recording. The quick guide sheet doesn't mention that. I had to read the manual to get that info. Other than that one minor flaw the unit works great. I was impressed with the unit's ability to automatically begin the recording as soon as it senses the music. It had trouble recognizing when one track ended and the next begins but you can do that manually by clicking the record button each time you want to define a new track.

Oh yeah, one other fantastic thing about the unit. After 5 seconds of silence the unit stops recording. That means that if you forget you're copying an lp the unit won't end up recording 30 minutes of nothing.

If you're looking to save all your old vinyl records before that technology is gone forever than this is the unit you want to buy. Thank you TEAC! You've given me exactly what I was looking for.

Works great -- and so easy to use

I bought this for my Berkshire Hypnosis office so I could offer my clients a CD recording of the session. I couldn't be more pleased. This thing is exactly what I needed. Its use is quite intuitive. Here's all I have to do:

1) After I push the button to indicate if the source is Digital or Analog (RCA inputs),
2) I slide in the blank Music/Audio CD-R (I chose TDK per someone's prior recommendation).
3) Then I push Record. This pauses the recording so that I can...
4) Check my recording input levels and adjust them easily by the little knob below the Record button.
5) Push Play to record.

6) I record my session. It tells me exactly how long the recording is while recording.
7) Since I pushed the Manual button, I can push Record anytime to tell the recorder to start a new "song." (I like this because I can go to song 2 on the CD, for example, to hear my deepening suggestion; song 3 for the therapy portion; song 4 for the awakening, and so on.)

8) Once the session is over, I slowly fade down the background music (using my little mixer) and then...
9) Push Stop on the CD-Recorder.

10) I push the Finalize button, then
11) Play - to start the finalization process.

12) Roughly a minute later, I have a working CD I can hand to my client.

I LOVE this thing. It's almost easier than recording onto a cassette. I've made numerous CDs with this and I quickly check every one before the client leaves the office. I've never had a problem. I recommend this recorder without hesitation.

What It Is

Reviewer: Duly Makai, Tampa, Florida

If my goal was to transfer analog data to CD then this machine does exactly what it presents to do. Connected to my reciever, making the new digital product was easy and intuitive, for those of us who don't like to read the instructions til later. My 33 year old Philosphy Class cassettes are now digital in format and are available to use "as is"...or modify with other software. The CD's produced by the Teac CD-RW880 Recorder play equally well on my computer, DVD player, or X-Box. Now I need to tackle all the vinyl Jazz and it should be just as easy.

Great unit for the money, Works great but has a few minor issues

Review Date: April 16, 2008

Reviewer: M. Hildebrand,

Hi, I purchased this unit for my church to record the music/sermons weekly. The unit is very nice looking and feels sturdy and built well. The controls are easy to use and connections are very simple. Analog stereo in and out are all you need but you can also connect a digital signal to another device to record without quality loss.

The only issues I have with the unit is it defaults to the optical input and auto track division every time it is turned on. I use the analog input coming from one of the Post Fader Aux sends off the Mackie Mixer our church has. I have to change the input from Optical to Analog and then press the A-track button 4 times to Manual just to make sure it doesn't auto track on a low level signal.

It is very easy to use, we place a blank CD-R Music disk into the unit and after the above settings changes, I press record and it gets ready. When I want to start the actual recording, I press play and away it goes on track 1. To start another track, which I do for each praise team song, I just press record button again and now I am on track 2. I do this through all the songs and then when the offering comes up, I just hit pause. This ends that track and sits waiting at the next track. I then just hit play and the next track starts recording. After the sermon and the closing hyme are done, I just hit stop.

The last thing you have to do is press "finalize" and then Play and it writes the TOC (Table of Contents). Takes about 1:20 or so for a full CD-R. You must do this for the disk to play in other CD-players.

I know a lot of other reviews were unhappy with the Music disks being required. You can buy a 100 disk pack off of Amazon for $20. They are a Generic brand but I have used them for many weeks and have not had a bad one yet... (knock on wood). As another reviewer said you can just buy a pack of Music CD-RW's, copy on a PC to a cheap data CD-R and then reuse the Music CD-RW's.

Overall a nice unit. The only other complaint is the "Time" button, (which switches from counting track time to counting down total time left) is only on the remote. Not a big deal but it is the only button I use on the remote as the unit is right there next to me.

Highly recommended for any church wanting to get away from recording to cassettes.

Ahhhhh at last !

Review Date: January 13, 2008

Reviewer: R. Kleifgen,

At last ! I have searched for a reasonably priced single disc no frills recorder for quite some time and I have finally found it ! I made my first disc, on the first try, no hassels, no troubles. This made a very clean copy of an LP from the 60's long out of print. (which is why I purchased this deck). The only hitch is you must use "digital audio" blank discs. You cannot use regular digital CDR (that you would normally use on a PC). That aside, this Teac made a fine copy and very easily. In other words NOT ONE ruined disc trying to figure things out. I most strongly recommend this product to anyone with a large vinyl collection or with any amount of vinyl that is long out of print and/or not available on cd. Now I can listen to Jean Luc Ponty's "Sunday Walk" anywhere, even in my car ! To top it off, this TEAC is not only a fine cd recorder but also a very nice player as well, (with headphone jack and headphone level control) and at this price, all I have to say is....Buy this Product!
