Turning video on and off

Use the VIDEO ON/OFF button to turn video output to the television (monitor) on and off. It is not necessary to turn video off, but you may notice a slight improvement in audio quality if you turn off the video when playing back SACD discs and CDs without video images.

Note that this setting is not memorized when the power is turned off.

Analog sound output

When playback is stopped, use the 2CH/MULTI button to select either 2CH (stereo) or MULTI (multi-channel surround) audio output from the analog outputs.

This setting is also reflected in the configuration screen (see page 31).

Note that if multi-channel program material is played and 2- channel mode is selected, the multi-channel material will be downmixed to two channels, and output through the L and R front outputs. See page 32 for how to set the downmix mode.

Clock Mode

Word sync

For highly accurate playback, you can use the word clock (sync) output of an external unit such as the Esoteric D-70 or G-0 to synchronize your whole audio system.

Use the CLOCK MODE (main unit) button to switch

ENGLISH

between Word ON and Word OFF.

 

When the unit is synchronizing to the external clock, the ring

 

surrounding the button flashes. When it is locked, the button

 

lights.

 

 

The main unit can accept and synchronize to the following

 

frequencies received from external devices:

 

44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz, 100kHz, 176.4kHz,

 

192kHz as well as frequencies which are 96% of these

 

values, in the 4% DOWN mode.

 

Note that the sync connection should be made before the

 

CLOCK MODE button is pressed. If no valid word sync signal

 

is received, the display shows “No Word!”.

 

4% DOWN mode

This allows a 4% reduction in frame rate. PAL video plays back at 25 frames per second (fps), but movies are shot at 24fps. This mode helps to resolve the discrepancy by allowing an external clock source at 4% less than standard to be received. The external clock source should be set to this 4% frequency reduction (called “PAL FILM” on the G-0 and G-0s models).

Press and hold the CLOCK MODE button on the main unit for three seconds or more to enter this mode.

The ring surrounding the button lights orange. Pressing this button again turns off the word sync.

Note that the signals from the S-Video and composite video outputs are cancelled when this mode is selected. In addition, the audio pitch drops.
