CD layer.
●
On the DP-77, the user can select the desired layer with
the SACD/CD button.

The DP-77 is an integrated SACD/CD player, but the transport and
processor sections, although housed in one enclosure, are entirely
separate and can be used separately, thanks to dedicated input
and output connectors. The unit also has option board slots which
allow increasing the number of digital inputs or outputs, as required.

SACD Digital Recording
For copyright reasons, digital recording from an SACD source is
not possible.
SACD Analog Recording
●
Connect the DP-77 to an analog preamplifier. Analog record-
ing is possible by using the REC outputs of this preamplifier.
＊
Recording from the analog outputs of an option board in the
DP-77 is not possible.
CD Digital Recording
Using the TRANSPORT OUTPUTS or the digital output on an
option board, digital recording of the CD signal is possible. See
page 24.
＊
Digital recording of the CD signal via the HS-Link connector is
not possible.
＊
The SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) prevents sub-
sequent recording of a signal that has already been recorded
once from a digital source. Therefore recording is possible
only for one generation.
CD Analog Recording
●
Connect the DP-77 to an analog preamplifier. Analog record-
ing is possible by using the REC outputs of this preamplifier.
●
Recording from the analog outputs of an option board in the
DP-77 is also possible.
＊
If the HS-Link is used for connection to a DC-330, DC-101 or
similar, recording from the analog outputs of an option board
in such a unit is not possible.
