Press [OK] to show the following settings.
PCM Down Conversion
Select how to output audio with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz
or 88.2 kHz.
Signals are converted to 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz despite the above
settings if the signals have a sampling frequency of over 96 kHz
or 88.2 kHz, or the disc has copy protection.
[On] Signals are converted to 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz. (Choose
when the connected equipment cannot process signals
with sampling frequency of 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz.)
[Off] Signals are output as 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz. (Choose
when the connected equipment can process signals with
sampling frequency of 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz.)
Dolby Digital
Choose whether to output by “Bitstream”
which processes Dolby Digital signals on other
connected equipment or to convert the signals to
“PCM (2ch)” on the unit before output.
[Bitstream] When you have connected the unit to a piece of
equipment having Dolby Digital logo.
[PCM] When you have connected the unit to a piece of
equipment that doesn’t have Dolby Digital logo.
DTS
Choose whether to output by “Bitstream”,
which processes DTS signals on other
connected equipment or to convert the signals
to “PCM (2ch)” on the unit before output.
[Bitstream] When you have connected the unit to a piece of
equipment having DTS logo.
[PCM] When you have connected the unit to a piece of
equipment that doesn’t have DTS logo.
MPEG
Choose whether to output by “Bitstream”, which processes
MPEG audio signals on other connected equipment or to convert
the signals to “PCM (2ch)” on the unit before output.
[Bitstream] When you have connected the unit to a piece of
equipment with a built-in MPEG decoder.
[PCM] When you have connected the unit to a piece of
equipment without a built-in MPEG decoder.
Audio Mode for XP Recording
Choose the audio type when recording with XP mode.
[Dolby Digital] ( 72)
[LPCM] ( 72)
The picture quality of LPCM recordings may be lower than that of
normal XP mode recordings.
The audio recording becomes Dolby Digital even if you selected
LPCM when using a recording mode other than XP.
Audio Mode for DV Input
You can select the kind of audio when recording from the unit’s DV
IN terminal ( 26).
[Stereo 1] Records audio (L1, R1)
[Stereo 2] Records added audio such as narration (L2, R2)
subsequent to original recording.
[Mix] Records both Stereo 1 and Stereo 2.
When recording bilingual broadcast, select the type of audio in
advance from “Bilingual Audio Selection” ( left).
Incorrect settings can cause noise to be output which can be
harmful to your ears and speakers, and audio will not be recorded
properly on media such as mini discs.
