Digital Connection to an MD to Record a CD

Some Audio CDs and VIDEO CDs have a short silent section between musical tracks. When sound from discs such as these is digitally recorded by connecting the Product directly to a digital recorder (such as an MD player), the music may be recorded continuously and track numbers may be lost.

■ Digital Connection to Audio Equipment or MD Player without a Dolby Digital Decoder

• Audio CD or VIDEO CD

Play the disc as you normally would, with the audio mode set to “L+R” (see page 91). With a digital connection, audio of a disc recorded with DTS sounds abnormal in this case.

• DVD

With a digital connection, audio cannot be produced from a DVD recorded with Dolby Digital (5.1 channel), Dolby Surround (Pro Logic), DTS or MPEG Audio, so you should use an analogue connection to play such discs. Discs with linear PCM audio should play normally.

■ Important notes to play DTS/Dolby Digital sounds on DVD discs

• Do not play DTS sounds of the disc when the audio equipment connected to the optical digital output jack is

not equipped with a DTS decoder. Do not play Dolby Digital sounds of the disc when the audio equipment connected to the optical digital output jack is not equipped with Dolby Digital decoder. This can result in the production of abnormal sounds that can damage the speaker or have a detrimental effect on your ears.

• When you play DTS sounds, the sound does not come out from the DVD AUDIO output jacks.

• When you enjoy the DTS digital surround sounds, select the DTS sounds on the Title menu or set “ Audio setting” in Function Control Screen to “DTS”. Set the audio mode to “L+R” for CDs.

• This connection is not possible if the processor or amplifier to which you want to connect does not have a coaxial digital input jack or an optical digital input jack.

• When playing a DVD Video disc recorded with linear PCM audio at a sampling frequency of 96 kHz, the audio of the digital output has a sampling frequency of 48kHz.
