To
record via the
digital inputs,
you must
set
the
sampling
frequency, select the
type of
digital
input,
then
select
the
digital inputs.
Sampling Frequency
To
record via the
digital inputs,
the
DR4vr
must be
set to the
same sampling frequency
as that
used by
the
incoming
digital signal.
This
is
because
the
DR4vr
has
to
synchronize with
the
incoming
signal. If
you
are recording
from
a
CD,
prerecorded
DCC,
or
MD,
this
will
be
44.
1
kHz.
If
you
are recording
from a
DAT
or
DCC
that
was
recorded
via
analog
inputs, this
will
be 48 kHz.
,
If
the
sampling frequency of the incoming
digital signal
and
the
DR4vr
are not the
same,
the
message
PSooPS
will
appear on
the display. In
this
case, set the
DR4vr
sampling frequency
to
match
that
of
the
incoming
digital signal.
If
you
have already recorded
some
material,
then
input a
digital signal
and
this
message
appeared, your
existing material will not
playback
correctly
even
if
you change
the
DR4vr
sampling frequency.
Note: You can record while
the
fSooPS
message
is
displayed.
However,
since the
DR4vr
time
display
corresponds
to the
sampling frequency
set
on
the
DR4vr,
the
displayed time
will
not
;
correspond
with the actual
time.
To
set
the
sampling
frequency, see "Setting the
Sampling Frequency" on page
24.
