DIGITAL BYPASS (ON, OFF)
DIGITAL BYPASS allows direct digital recording. When set to ON,
the unit passes the digital input signal - unaltered - to the S/PDIF
outputs. When set to OFF, the unit sends digital audio output
through a sample rate converter before passing it to the S/PDIF
outputs. This allows the digital output signal to match the input of
a digital recording device.
Note:
DIG OUT RATE parameter settings will be ineffective
when the DIGITAL BYPASS parameter is set to ON.
DIG OUT RATE (44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz, INPUT)
DIG OUT RATE sets the S/PDIF output sampling rate for analog or
digital inputs. When set to INPUT, the unit varies the S/PDIF audio
output rate to match the sampling rate of the input signal. When
set to a numerical value, the output sampling rate remains at the
selected value. This is useful for recording devices that operate on
a single sampling rate, such as CD-R (44.1kHz).
RECORD (ENABLED, BLOCKED)
RECORD prevents feedback loops with recording devices. When set
to ENABLED, the unit allows record signals from the selected input
to pass to the RECORD AUDIO and VIDEO OUTPUTS. When set to
BLOCKED, the RECORD AUDIO OUTPUTS are blocked, preventing
feedback loops. However, the unit will still pass video signals to the
RECORD VIDEO OUTPUTS.

• The AUTO setting allows the unit to switch between the
selected DIGITAL IN and ANALOG IN connectors. The
DIGITAL IN connector is utilized when a valid digital audio
input type is present. When invalid digital audio input
types are received, the unit automatically switches to the
ANALOG IN connector. This setting is recommended for
input sources that utilize both digital and analog audio
input types, such as a laser disc player.
Note:
Some sources supply valid digital audio input types
that remain active even when no audio is present in
the signal. Because the unit recognizes these as valid
digital audio input types, it will not switch to the
ANALOG IN connector. For these sources, it is
recommended to configure two different inputs - one
for digital audio input types, and a second for analog
audio input types.
ANLG IN LVL (-18 to +12dB)
ANLG IN LVL allows manual adjustment of the analog input levels
of the Record Zone. When ANLG IN LVL is selected, a white
horizontal bar graph will appear on the screen below the ANLG IN
LVL parameter. This graph illustrates the position at which the
current setting falls within the -18 to +12dB parameter range. Press
the up and down MENU arrows to increase and decrease the set-
ting in 1dB increments. Press the left MENU arrow to close the
graph and return to the RECORD ADV menu.
