SONY RCD-W100 Hi i recently got myself a second hand Sony RCD-W100 CD recorder. When hooked up and recording from turntables it only records in mono. My mixer and turntables are in perfect working order I have checked leads and all is good. Hope you can help thenks.

    Thanks for the reply, Im useing an Allen & Heath xone62, i think there is a problem with the cd recorder itself. There is a display on the front which gives you the sound balance and it only works on the right. When recording and playing back it will only play on 1 speaker if that makes sense.

Can you please update this with your connections. I assume that you are connecting the turntables to the mixer? Verify that the mixer is set to send out true stereo. What mixer are you using?
Note that most mixers "pan" all of the channels to the center sending out mono to the left and right. In most live shows, it makes no sense to send out true stereo. The left and right are for the speaker chains. In order to get true stereo out of the mixer, you wil need to pan the input channel for the left side all the way to the left and the input for the right channel to the right.

    Yep it sort of makes sense. What type of connectors are being used? The A&H usually send out using either XLR or 1/4" balanced. You may have to use a "y" cable to separate the 2 sides for input into the CD recorder. Double check the recorder inputs and types.

New CD-R discs read Data Only. Can the Sony RCD-W100 be adjusted to record with today's crop of CD-R discs?

Were these discs labeled CD-R Digital Audio? This compact disc recorder can't record to CD-R data disc for computers. See the manual on page 7. The manual is available here: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/4246/42460761M.pdf .

Apparently, there is a header section on CD-R Digital Audio discs that tells the RCD-W100 that the disc is for audio recording. The work-around would be to process your audio files on a computer and then write the music to the CDs that you currently have.

I wish that I had better news for you.
