D824/D1624 Reference Manual (Recording Digital Data)
<Notes regarding the digital connection>
The DIGITAL/DATA OUT jack of the D824/D1624 can be used either for an S/P DIF digital signal
(optical) or for an adat digital signal. You must use the digital output setup menu in Setup mode to
select one of them. These signals use the same jack but carry two different types of information.
<When using the D824>
Connect the DIGITAL/DATA OUT 1-8 jacks to the OPTICAL IN (or adat IN) jack of the digital device.
If you select [SPDIF] for the digital output tracks, the outputs of tracks 1 and 2 are assigned to
Outputs 1-8. If you select [adat] for the digital output tracks, the output of tracks 1-8 are assigned.
<When using the D1624>
To connect the D1624 with a digital device, to output an S/P DIF digital signal, or to output an adat
digital signal, use the DIGITAL/DATA IN 1-8 or 9-16 jacks. If you select [SPDIF] for the digital output
tracks, the outputs of tracks 1 and 2 are assigned to Outputs 1-8 and the outputs of tracks 3 and 4
are assigned to Outputs 9-16. If you select [adat] for the digital output, the outputs of tracks 1-8 are
assigned to Outputs 1-8 and the outputs of tracks 9-16 to Outputs 9-16.
Note that only the DIGITAL/DATA OUT 1-8 jacks can be used on the D1624 when you load the song
data. (For more information, see “Saving and Loading Song Data” on page 84.)
Connecting an external digital device
1. Use an optical cable to connect the DIGITAL/DATA OUT jack of the recorder to the OPTICAL IN (or adat IN)
jack of the external digital device.
Use the digital output setup menu in Setup mode to assign output tracks.
With the default setting, the digital output is set to [adat]. You can select [adat] or [SP DIF].
To output adat digital signals to a connected adat device, select [adat]. To output S/P DIF signals to a connected
CD-R, MD, or DAT recorder, select [SP DIF].
