Additional Information
Guide to the Serial Copy Management System
This MD deck uses the Serial Copy Management System,
which allows only first-generation digital copies to be
made of pre-mastered software via the unit’s digital input
jack. An outline of this system appears below:
1
You can record from digital program sources (CDs, DATs or
pre-mastered MDs) onto a DAT tape or recordable MD via
digital input jack on the DAT or MD deck.
You cannot, however, record from this recorded DAT tape or
MD onto another DAT tape or recordable MD via the digital
input jack on the DAT or MD deck.
2
You can record the digital input signal of a digital satellite
broadcast onto a DAT tape or recordable MD via the digital
input jack on the DAT or MD deck which is capable of handling
a sampling frequency of 32 kHz or 48 kHz. You can then record
the contents of this recorded DAT tape or MD (first-generation)
onto another DAT tape or recordable MD via digital input jack
on the DAT or MD deck to create a second-generation digital
copy. Subsequent recording from the second-generation copy
onto another recordable DAT tape or MD is possible only
through the analog input jack on the DAT or MD deck. Note,
however, that on some BS/CS tuners, second-generation digital
copying may not be possible.
