Trying to finalize a cd

I bought a new Teac GF-350 and also a Teac tape deck. I am trying to copy some cassettes to CD's. I have CD-R Music discs to use with this machine but when I follow the instructions in the manuel and get to the step to finalize it goes through all of the things it says it will do and when the numbers are finished the music will come on. When I try to play this CD in another CD player it says that it can't read the disc. Any suggestions?

Hi, This is just a guess but it may be worth a try. I have heard that Audio CD-Rs, which are the only media this machine will record onto, are famous for being finicky about being played on different kinds of CD readers. My suggestion is that you "rip" the Audio CD-R's content to your computer (in .wav or .MP3 format) and then make a copy of your album onto a reagular CD-R which is more likely to be played on any CD reader. Not sure if this'll work for you but it's worth a shot. Hope this helps.

TEAC GF-350 Power goes on. Press PHONO to record 45 rpm. RECORD button does not light up when pressed. The CD-R comes out blank. The screen shows: NO TOC CD-R. What does that mean?

Useful Information About Your CD-R or CD-RW :
• TOC means Table of Contents and it tells you whether or not your CD has data already on it. If your CD is blank it should have No Table of Contents (No TOC). If a CD has data on it, it will show the number of tracks as well as the amount of time recorded on it.

• If a CD is NOT finalized you can use it and add more tracks . If it is finalized you will not be able to modify it, meaning you will not be able to add anymore tracks.

• Please note that even though you can use a CD-RW, some machines may have problems with it.

Reviews on your TEAC are not good.

However, I think pressing 'PHONO' has to be done twice according to page 12 and 20 of the manual. Then read onwards in the manual.

Why doesn't it record?

I had a lot of problems with the blank CD's and tried a lot of blank CD's. After doing many hours research I finally found that the 'Memorex Brand Music Digital Audio" blank CD's were all I could find that would record from cassette to CD. You may find other brands that work but the key I found was the words 'Digital Audio' and many posts said the same thing. I bought mine from America from 'SimplyBestDealsOnline'. Really hope this helps. Susy.

I have a TEAC AH300 stack with tape deck, cd, etc.. It's about 13 years old work perfect. Can I connect to iPod an listen to music through the TEAC?

If it has aux or audio input then yes, you will still need the docking station to the type of inputs that are available on the Teac. It should all be line level.

Casette to disc

to convert music from cassett to disk u need to connect the cassett player headphone jack / line out jack to ur PC/laptop mike / line in jack....then play the music and record it in a software(Nero Sound editor etc)
then once that's done save it as mp3 file on to ut PC and trf it to ur cd/disk....u can just copy it as mp3 or create a music cd using Nero...from the mp3 file
the difference is if u just copy the mp3 on to the cd then only a mp3 player/mp3 music system deck can play it... if it's created as a music cd then any cd player can play it....just like any music cd that u buy in the mkt...
a 700 mb disk can hold almost 7 to 10 hrs of music in mp3 format....
but a music disk can hold only 80 mins of music
