Notes
• Digital recording is prohibited for most DVD
software. To record DVD software for which digital
recording is prohibited, disconnect the optical cable
and make an analogue recording.
• A built-in sampling rate converter lets you make a
digital recording of the sound from a digital
component to the MD deck regardless of the source
frequency (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48.0 kHz).
• If the optical cable is not connected or incorrectly
connected, or if the optical cable is connected but
there is some problem with the input digital signal,
the system automatically switches to analogue
recording and the audio is recorded in analogue
format.
• When connecting the DVD player's DIGITAL
OUT jack to the MD deck's DIGITAL OPTICAL
AUX IN jack, set the DVD player so that the
signals output from the player's DIGITAL OUT
jack are downmixed to 2 channels (2ch linear
PCM). If the DVD player is set to 5.1ch output, you
cannot record to the MD.
When "OVER" lights up during
recording from the connected
components
A signal in excess of the specified level was input
during recording. Perform the following
operations and then record the source again.
1 Press MENU/NO twice during recording or
recording pause.
"Setup Menu" appears.
2 Turn l/L until "Level Adjust ?"
appears, then press ENTER/YES.
3 Turn l/L to adjust the recording level.
The recording level can be adjusted from –12 to
