CAUTION
i
You can connect a USB flash drive or SD card to a computer
and edit file names from the computer. Doing so, however,
could cause the order of the files to change when played
back on the unit.
i
On a text input screen, characters other than half-width (nor-
mal) English letters, numerals and symbols will not be shown.
If text includes characters other than half-width English let-
ters, numerals and symbols, opening a text input screen will
delete them.
i
The following symbols and punctuation marks cannot be
used in text.
¥ / : * ? “ ” < > |
NOTE
You can also use a USB keyboard to edit characters.(See “Using
the keyboard to input names and values” on page 97.)
Character input limit
The white background in the character field indicates the maxi-
mum number of characters. The gray background shows charac-
ters in excess of the maximum number. These will be discarded
when you select
Enter
and confirm the input text.
Applying dithering to recording
When recording in 16-bit WAV format the dynamic range is
about 96.3 dB.
You can set how the unit processes the quiet sounds above the
16-bit range that are lost (quantization noise) when it records.
1.
Select
DITHER
on the
REC 4
page to open the
DITHER
screen. (See “Menu operation procedures” on page 22.)
2.
Set the dither mode.
Option
Meaning
OFF
(default)
No dithering is conducted. Unusable quanti-
zation bits (17 and higher) are cut, while the
16th bit and below are recorded as is.
DITHER
Random noise (white noise) that is half the
size of the smallest quantization bit (16th
bit) is added, generating fluctuation in the
border between the 16th and 17th bits and
suppressing quantization noise.
NOISE SHAPE
This is linear noise shaping. Quantization
noise itself is fed back and differentiated to
suppress the noise and expand the dynamic
range.
3.
Confirm the setting and return to the Menu Screen.
Using the sampling rate converter
This unit has a built-in sampling rate converter, so it is possible
to record with a sampling frequency that is different from the
digital input sources.
When the sampling rate converter is on, the
icon appears in
the recording function activation status area on the recording
screen.
1.
Select
SRC
on the
REC 4
page to open the
SRC
screen. (See
“Menu operation procedures” on page 22.)
2.
Turn the sampling rate converter (SRC) on or off.
Options:
OFF
(default),
ON
3.
Confirm the setting and return to the Menu Screen.
NOTE
i
If you try to record a digital signal through a digital input
connector with the sampling frequency that is different from
the one set on the
SAMPLING RATE
screen when the sampling
rate converter (SRC) is off, a “
-- DIN ERROR -- Digital
input is illegal.
” message will appear. (See “Setting the
recording file format” on page 61.)
i
The sampling rate converter operation range is 32–192 kHz.
