RECORDING USING THE OPTICAL DIGITAL CABLE
13
This is the method used for recording
digital signals from CDs or MDs exactly
as they are stored on the original.
Compared to recordings made from
analogue inputs, digital recordings have
extremely high-quality sound.

it is not necessary to adjust the
recording level.
Notes:
●
This unit incorporates a sampling rate
converter.
When this unit is connected to digital
equipment such as Digital radios or
DAT tape recorders that use a different
sampling frequency (32 kHz or 48 kHz),
recordings can still be made.
(The sampling frequency of this unit is
44.1 kHz.)
●
When making a digital recording from a
portable CD player (if the player has a
sound skip prevention function and this
function is turned on) the optical output
will drop out and digital recording will not
be possible. Be sure to turn the sound
skip prevention function off.
There are cases where digital recording
may be impossible.
In the following cases digital recording is
impossible, even if you are using digital
cables.
When you attempt to make a new digital
recording from a track that was digitally
recorded on a MiniDisc.
●
MiniDiscs are designed so that only first
generation digital copies can be made.
Further digital copies are prevented by
the SCMS (Serial Copy Management
System).
