Aut om at ic conversion of digit al sam pling
rat es during recording
A built-in sampling rate converter automatically converts
the sampling frequency of various digital sources to the
44.1 kHz sampling rate of the MD deck. This allows you
to monitor and record sources such as 32- or 48-kHz DAT
tapes or satellite broadcasts, as well as the CDs and MDs.
Aut om at ic de-em phasizing of input
signals f or digit al recording
When recording digital input signals that have been
emphasized in higher frequencies, the deck automatically
de-emphasizes the signals with attenuation proportional
to the degree of emphasis. The level of the de-
emphasized signal is indicated on the peak level meters.
Guide t o t he Serial Copy M anagem ent
Syst em
Digital audio components, such as CDs, MDs, and DATs
make it easy to produce high-quality copies of music by
processing music as a digital signal.
To protect copyrighted music sources, this deck uses the
Serial Copy Management System which allows you to
make only a single copy of a digitally recorded source
through digital-to-digital connections.
You can m ake only a f irst -generat ion copy
t hrough a digit al-t o-digit al connect ion.
Examples are given as follows:
• You can make a copy of a commercially available digital
sound program (for example, a CD or MD), but you
can't make a second copy from the first-generation
copy.
• You can make a copy of a digital signal from a digitally
recorded analog sound program (for example, an
analog record or a music cassette tape) or from a digital
satellite broadcast program, but you can't make a
second copy from the first-generation copy.
A first-generation copy means the first recording of a digital audio
*
source through the deck's digital input connector. For example, if you
record from a CD player connected to the DIGITAL IN connector,
that copy is a first-generation copy.
Note
The restrictions of the Serial Copy Management System don't
apply when you make a recording through the analog-to-analog
connections.
