RE: MD: deep optical question
1) The input doesn't get resampled since there is a direct connection between optical in and optical out. This is in accordance with the schematic diagram for my JA30ES, and I would imagine yours would be the same. 2) A pro format would be transmitted via 3-pin XLR connectors. I have yet to see an AES/EBU format transmitted along an optical medium. You sure about this?

The reason for this is because the digital out spits out exactly the same information as what comes into the MD's input simply because it is put through to the digital out directly without any looping through the unit's ADC/DAC circuits. It is unprocessed/untouched. Using my JE520 If the input is 48Khz or 32Khz the out put is resampled to 44.1khz, Don't know it a 44.1Khz input is resampled though. Sending a 44.1/16bit wav through my 520 (from my computer) and then recording back in the the computer is causing a wave file with differing sample values, which leads me to belive the output of the 520 is been reclocked ie resampled. also noticed the 520 will accept a "pro" (AES/EBU) format digital signal, which is output as S/Pdif format. --Matt [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

=== The original message was multipart MIME=== === All non-text parts (attachments) have been removed === Regarding digital pass-through I called Sony Tech and they had to call me back later after "checking it out". The response ( on my answ. mach.) was: "it does contain the processing of the MD output on the digital output, so my understanding is that it does contain the ATRAC coding as well as any copy protection..." In other words, the first phrase is a sure thing from some higher source, but the second is a guess on the part of the tech who checked it out. "Processing" could just mean AD/DA, or copy-protection, and not ATRAC. Still no word-of-God answer.

Re: MD: deep optical question
This situation of digital audio information running thru equipment has me curious. I master albums of my own music to MD (all the editing options lets me continually change my mind about things), and then make CD copies, running the MD digital out first thru my old Pioneer CD recorder, and from there thru my newer Philips CD recorder. I'm assuming I'm able to do this since the first CD recorder doesn't register as "a copy" as far as SCMS goes. Could there theoretically be an endless chain of digital recorders all copying at the same time? Is the digital signal "the same signal" all the way thru, or is it continually being changed as it passes thru each recorder? -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- You have just read e-mail by Ken Clinger.
