Two ways of connecting to a sound
source
The input jack of this recorder works as both digital and analog input
jacks. Connect the recorder to a CD player or a cassette recorder
using either digital (optical) input or analog (line) input. To record,
see "Recording an MD right away!" (page 15) to record using digital
(optical) input, and "Recording with analog input (line cable
required)" (page 27) to record using analog (line) input.
