Product Overview
O VERVIEW
The DVR-A07 is the world’s first 8x8 dual format writer, meaning it is capable of writing at 8x speed on DVD-R
discs whose standard is being ratified in the DVD Forum and +R discs that are designed for this recording speed.
The new drive also records high-speed DVD-RW and +RW discs at up to 4x speed, and CD-R and CD-RW discs
at up to 24x speed. By supporting the DVD Forum’s DVD-R and DVD-RW disc formats as well as the +R and
+RW formats, Pioneer is helping to eliminate format confusion, which has become a growing problem for potential
buyers.
Pioneer engineers focused on improving the writing/recording quality and reliability for high-speed writing. New
technology accommodates for variances in blank media. Some of the technological advancements include:
• Pioneer-developed Liquid Crystal Control System for precise recording onto the surface of discs that
may be warped or of uneven thickness.
• Smart Laser Driver to provide a precise laser pulse control and achieve more reliable recording for high-
speed writing.
• Precision Recording Technology, which utilizes an auto-adjustable writing technique to enable
recording under the best conditions for each disc characteristic at all times. This technology, first
introduced in the DVR-A06, enables the DVR-A07 to achieve optimal initial writing performance and helps
to minimize the normal deterioration of re-recordable discs due to repeated writing. As a result, the
quality for repeatedly used DVD-RW discs is up to 10 times better than previous writers.
• A Defect Management System that enhances the writing reliability further, while maintaining read
compatibility with other DVD-ROM drives, DVD players and DVD recorders.
• An Ultra Dynamic Resonance Absorber that reduces vibrations that can affect performance during
high-speed recording and playback of some discs. With this feature, the high precision servo system
remains stable during both high-speed recording and playback.
The DVR-A07 will also include an extensive collection of software applications for video authoring, editing, DVD
slide show creation, and data recording. With its low cost and compact design, Pioneer's DVR-A07 multiple
format DVD/CD writer targets digital video editing and archiving as its "killer application" as well as traditional data
and digital image storage applications.
