    I could have figured out I need a manual by myself what I need to know is the process of getting the CD recorder to record

  • spikedchez Jul 13, 2011

    Both soultions stated the completely obvious get an owners manual for a PD-R555RW cd recorder. DA! If I had access to a manual I would not have a problem. The Unit I have I bought used on E-Bay It has no manual I can't download one all that is avialable is service manuals which would be great if I need a wiring schematic but I don't. This is what I feed . The Step by step process of how to record a disc. From insertion of the blank disc to Finalization of the disc

  • spikedchez Jul 13, 2011

    I am using optical cables in and out it is not a connection problem the problem is getting the unit into record mode . I am getting signal on the VU meters . I can play a pre recorded disc on the unit no problem, the problem is getting the unit into a working record mode

  • spikedchez Jul 13, 2011

    It is not a connection problem. As stated in previous posts ....

    A. I am using Optical in and out

    B. The unit works in play mode with regular pre recorded CD's

    C. When a regulars CD is playing there is a green light bar above the cd drawer that lights up

    D. There is signal going to the unit as signal is registering on the VU meters

    E. When trying to record I have no Green light

    F. I am using a Recordable CD ( not a RE-Recordable CD)



    Now that the Facts are clearly stated can you help me?

You can get full operation manual and instructions from " http://www.cdrecorders.org.uk/pdr555rw.php", or

Here's a manual in several languages for you:

If you are just using RCA plugs then it should be like this:

Tape player:
RCA OUT -----> Receiver Tape IN

Receiver:

Tape or source OUT -------> CD Recorder IN

CD Recorder:
OUT -------> Receiver CD IN

Remember, to listen to the CD, you got to change the source on the receiver back to it.

    Well all you need to do is hook up a source for it to record from such as a cd player. Plug the cd player into the input on the recorder, pop in a cd R or cd RW disc, hit play on the cd player and record on the recorder. It's very similar to recording with a VHS tape in that the cd needs to play all the way through for the burner to record it.

My Pioneer PDR 555-RW keeps reading Mon1 or Moni when I try to record my CD from my mixing board. I need to send this wedding music, and it is trapped in my board. HELP!

That's just a MONITOR indication. It means you can SEE the audio from the selected input on the record level meters for adjustment or other reasons. It won't prevent you from recording. Set your levels then hit RECORD, let it set itself up and calibrate to the disc, start your source and hit Play or Pause to start recording to the disc.

Repair for failure to recognize any type of CD for the Pioneer PD-R555RW

UPDATED 15 Jan 2010!


If your PD-R555RW will not recognize any type of CD - it flashes CD? CD-R? CD-RW? repeatedly and then stops with CHECK DISC displayed - the problem is likely to be a leaking "supercap" on the Servo Digital board. The supercap is designed to act like a battery and hold information about a CD if power is lost, but unfortunately it also tends to leak and badly corrode the circuit board.

There is more information in the DIYAUDIO forums; see post #14 for the gory details.

(Post #7 there describes how to replace some capacitors and fix a voltage problem. I did this fix and my unit mostly worked for a while, but it didn't fix anything permanently and at this point I'm sure that the circuit board corrosion was my real problem.)

Do I just push finalize to finish the burning of the cd?

after you've finished recording press 'finalize' the recorder will then get ready for finalizing and then a countdown time will appear in the display eg '1:20' once this appears press 'play' and the recorder will start to finalize and the digits will count down to zero, once this has finished, your disc is finalized.

I can not get my CD recorder to record

You should use consumer cd's that are rather expensive. You probably tried to record a recordable cd-rom (a cheap computer disc). It's not possible to burn a pro-disc (computer disc) by using your Pioneer, and that's why you got that message on the screen. Refer to the user manual of your cd recorder and learn what sort of blank cd you should use.
