About the Copyright bit when using digital connections

The copyright bit of the data sent from the digital output connector of the SC-D70
will be the same as the copyright bit that is received at the digital input connector.
When data that you created on the your computer using the SC-D70 is digitally
recorded to a digital device such as an MD, it will normally be recorded as copy
permitted (data that can be copied one or more times). However, if a device is
connected to the digital input connector, the copyright bit will be set according to the
copyright bit of the digital audio signal being input from the digital input connector.
For this reason, you should not connect anything to the digital input connector
unless necessary, or turn off the power of the connected device.
The SC-D70 allows you to record without being restricted by SCMS (Serial Copy
Management System) when transferring audio signals with an external device via a
digital connection. The SC-D70 is designed solely for music production in which the
created work does not infringe on the copyrights of another party, and is therefore
designed so that it is not limited by SCMS. Do not use the SC-D70 for any purpose
that may infringe the copyrights of a third party. Roland Corporation will accept no
responsibility for any copyright infringement that you may perform using this
device.
Even for purposes of personal enjoyment (private use), circumventing a technical
protective measure such as SCMS to create an unauthorized copy of a copyrighted
work belonging to a third party is an infringement of the copyright of that party, and
is forbidden by law.
About SCMS
"SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)" is a function on consumer digital audio
devices such as DAT recorders or MD recorders that protects the rights of the
producer by prohibiting second-generation and subsequent copying over a digital
connection. When recording via a digital connection to a digital recorder that has this
function, SCMS data is recorded along with the digital audio data. Digital audio data
that contains this data cannot be recorded again via a digital connection.
28
The copyright bit is data
that prohibits or permits
second-generation and
subsequent recording over
a digital connection to a
device that implements
SCMS.
Even if playback is stopped
on a device such as a CD
player, the copyright bit
may be detected as copy
prohibit.
