Features of DTC-700
Application of the serial copy management
system
This unit utilizes the serial copy management system that
permits digital-to-digital recording for one generation. You can
record CD sound or other digital formats through a digital-to-
digital connection.
Three sampling frequencies
Recording/playback can be done with three sampling
frequencies (48 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 32 kHz).
48 kHz: For analog input signals in a standard mode
44.1 kHz: For compact disc and pre-recorded DAT tape
32 kHz: For analog input signals in a long-play mode
Long-play mode
This unit can operate in a long-play mode. Analog input
signals can be recorded or played back for up to four
consecutive hours when the DT-120 DAT cassette tape is
used. The sampling frequency will be 32 kHz in the long-play
mode.
Visible cassette loading
You can view the tape operation through the lid of the cassette
compartment. Due to a revolutionary new transport mechanism,
cassette loading time has been significantly reduced.
Excellent sound quality
Newly developped 1-bit A/D converter (High Density Linear A/
D Converter) is provided for recording. Newly developped 1-bit
pulse D/A converter with excellent linearity is also provided for
playback.
Digital fade-in/fade-out
Professional sounding fade-in/fade-out of either digital or
analog signals can be accomplished by use of the FADER
button.
Post edit recording of sub codes
You can record or rewrite the following sub codes after the
audio signal recording has been completed.
Start 1D: Signifies the beginning of a selection
Program number: Gives a number to the selection
Skip ID: Signifies the beginning of a portion to be skipped.
End ID: Signifies the end position of recording/playback.
Since sub codes are written on the tape separately from
audio signals, the audio signals are not affected.
