Features, Performance And A Price
That'll Be Music To Your Ears

Primera Composer Producing your own CD-Rs has never been faster and easier than with the new Composer Optical Disc Duplicator. It lets you duplicate up to 50 CD-Rs per job in your own office or production facility at speeds of up to 24x, the fastest currently available.

Composer's advanced robotics and software work automatically, so no operator intervention is required after a job is started. Highly intuitive authoring and duplication software from Prassi can be learned in an hour or less. Depending upon your needs, you can also print directly onto your discs with any of Primera's popular ink-jet or thermal disc printers.

Whether you need to duplicate music, video, software or data, Composer makes the process simple -- at a price virtually any company can afford!

Easy To Operate, Proven Reliability
An efficient and user-friendly design streamlines all operations. The uncomplicated control panel has just three buttons.

Since most duplication jobs are unattended, reliability has carefully been designed into Composer. Its "pick-and-place" mechanism greatly improves upon the reliability of other designs, assuring you non-stop, high-volume production. In addition, Composer has a high-impact plastic front and all-metal case. Its rugged construction and styling make it equally at home in office or production environments.

PrimoPro™ Software Included
Composer comes with either PrimoCD Pro or PrimoDVD mastering and duplication software from Prassi, a well-known and highly respected CD-R software company.

Two Printing Options
Composer comes ready for the integration of a Primera Technology CD printer. You can print text, graphics, logos and even full-color photos directly onto the top surface of discs.

Both ink-jet and thermal printers are available, so you can choose which one works best for you.

Select the Signature IV CD Color Printer for 1200 x 1200 dpi, full-color printing quality onto printable-surface discs, or the SignaturePro Colour CD Printer for fast & incredible 2400 dpi color printing.
Or, choose the Inscripta Thermal CD Printer for durable, scratch- and smudge-resistant, completely waterproof printing onto standard discs.

Need To Record and Print DVD-Rs?
No problem! The combination DVD-R/CD-RW Composer, utilizing Pioneer's latest optical disc recording technology, is particularly versatile. Each drive is dual-purpose, able to record both General Purpose (GP) DVD-R's as well as CD-R/CD-RW's. You'll be able to record either format now without the need for expensive upgrades later.

Uncompromised Value
Primera Technology's high-volume approach to design and manufacturing assures you of the highest quality at the lowest possible cost. Compared to other similar duplication systems, Composer is simply the best value available today!

Duplicate and Print Your CD-Rs or DVD-Rs with Composer
-- The Price/Performance Leader!

While there are many other CD-R duplicators on the market today, most of them are too complicated and expensive. But now, Primera Technology offers you the Composer Optical Disc Duplicator. It's a versatile, high-performance CD-R and DVD-R duplicator that's easy to use -- and has a price that fits any budget!

It's an accepted fact that producing your own CD-Rs or DVD-Rs in-house saves time, money and gives you lots of flexibility. However, robotic-based production systems capable of recording and printing quantities of discs have traditionally been complicated and expensive.

Primera Technology's new Composer Optical Disc Duplicator changes all of that. Whether you produce 50 discs a week or thousands, Composer does the job for far less money than comparable disc duplication systems. You'll be able to easily and inexpensively create your own unique, on-demand CD-Rs or DVD-Rs in just a few minutes each!

Optional color or monochrome printing takes less than a minute per disc using either ink-jet or thermal printers. Finished discs look as professional as those produced by outside service bureaus.

Composer is the perfect solution for professional, in-house production of CD-Rs and DVD-Rs. It's the new price/performance leader in optical disc duplication!

A print-only version called Conductor™ is also available (printer sold separately).
