Is this computer cdrw/dvd? Does that mean it will record music to a cd in the slot in the tower? or do I have to buy a cd recorder?

Yes... you can record movies and or music to athe on board CD unit. Of course this requires the proper software such as NERO PRO to do so. The computer does NOT come the necessary software to simply recording. The Windows based software will allow recording of music however.

Yes, it does record Music. The vender is nice and responsive to my questions.

I have a Dell with Windows 7 but found it fairly simple to use. Just put the CD in the drive and connect your tape player to the microphone jack on the side. Then follow the directions given. I have learned that my tape player (an old boom box) needs to have its volume really low in order to get the best quality recording. After recording is finished you are able to edit the beginning and ending to cut off any blank sound. You can also split something into multiple tracks. I have yet to learn how to enhance sound but really I am using it primarily to convert books on tape to MP3 for my classroom listening center. From this format you can easily burn to CD. Hope this helps!

I don't believe you can record directly to cd but I think you can write a track to cd. if you can, it should be less than a minute.

Dear Susan E. I am no audio technician. However I bought my TEAC model RW-CD22 recorder from Costco about ten years ago and it is still going strong. On both the playback and record CD slide inputs there is an imprint similar to those on the Audio CDs which says " compact disc digital audio recordable". These are CD-R Music CDs and are the only ones I can record on. Just plain CD-R and CD-RW will not record on my unit. If I put in one of these the recorder displays "no disc" instead of the number of minutes to be recorded on the disc. I have been told that regular CD-R or CD-RW (which is re-recordable) can be used for music from other sources but I don't know for sure. Hope this helps. Jack Dear Susan E. I am no audio technician.

I don't really know. I have only recorded onto a CD and I don't believe you can record any other way. However, there is a way to connect to your computer, so there may be some options I am not aware of.

I believe that you can since since the source can be a cd, tape or external device. The "record to" options are USB and tape. I haven't done this but it should be doable. This unit is not a CD burner so you can't record to CD.

Yes, the machine is supposed to have that capability. You should be able to record to CD from vinyl records and AM/FM radio.

There should be a disk in the drive try putting that in your tower cd drive . P.S. that's why I got a refund.

I specifically requested from Amazon cd's that can be recorded on cd recorders. why do they display yours which cannot?

Do you mean the software to run the cdrom? or are you trying to copy a software to your computer, like cd to pc? The DVD ROM is plug and play with Windows OS. We had it on windows 7, though it needed two usb ports to power. If you are trying to copy a cd on to a pc, then it would depend on the software copyright. A music cd, you can rip using windows media player. A movie, probably not. A program, maybe, depending on if you can grab everything into a folder. Let me know if you need assistance,Thanks,Kevin

You can't record to a CD, as you would need to have a CD burner to do this. The AD-800 can record from a CD to a cassette or to an MP3 device. It can also record from an external device to cassette or MP3.

It will record on regular CD-R's. I don't know if you can rip the songs to your computer. It may depend on what media program you use. I know Windows 7 Media Player, won't let you.

It's for PC not a stand alone recorder. You have to get a DVD recorder if they still make one.

I didn't buy it for recording. I bought it to play audiobooks on cd for my class. It was substandard.

I don't think so, but it is supposed to record a CD from a cassette, but haven't tried it

Yes Paul, not only can it record to CDR's it can also play back music CD's. It is a very nice unit for the cost. I recommend it highly.
