Make digital recordings from any source
The PDR–19RW can accept digital input via optical or coaxial cable, meaning that you can
connect it to almost any other digital audio component. Also, thanks to the built in sample rate
converter you can make direct digital recordings from satellite (usually 32kHz),
to 48kHz), for example, as well as
Analog sources are also catered for with the analog line inputs, suitable for connection to
standard audio components such as cassette decks and turntables. High-quality analog-to-digital
conversion, paired with

Automatic and manual recording modes
The PDR–19RW makes recording any source—digital or analog—as simple as possible, while
also giving you the option of complete control over such things as track numbering, recording
fades and breaks between tracks, and marking tracks to be skipped on the finalized disc. On the
other hand, the synchro recording feature, together with auto-track numbering make copying
from digital sources as easy as loading a disc and pressing a single button.

In addition to recording, the PDR–19RW also serves as a high-quality

bit digital-to-analog converter technology which maintains extremely high conversion accuracy,
even when there is system clock jitter.
Hi-bit Legato Link Conversion
Pioneer's unique Hi-bit Legato Link technology enhances sound quality on two fronts. First, it
extends the effective frequency range of
intelligently adding back in high frequencies lost in the recording process. Secondly, it increases
the dynamic range by resampling the 16bit audio data from the disc at 24bits. This makes
possible a richer, more detailed sound, especially during quieter sections of a disc.
Minimized and isolated signal paths
The PDR–19RW has been designed so that all signal paths are as short as possible. This
minimizes the risk of interference and distortion caused by other components in the recorder,
and increases channel separation for more faithful audio recording and reproduction.
